Feldon Game Update 56 will be imbuing flying carpets, floating discs, and cloud mounts with the power to float. If you are thinking to yourself “Wait, didn’t they already do that?” read on…
Carpets, Clouds, and Discs have allowed players to peacefully float throughout Norrath, but only over flat, even, dry surfaces. As soon as the operator of these wondrous mounts attempted to traverse a vertical distance greater than 3 feet, they were suddenly rendered about as effective as concrete shoes. In short, carpets, clouds, and disc mounts have been a virtual death trap over mountainous terrain. I guess they just don’t make flying carpets the way they used to!
But wait… Kander has some news:
Carpets, Clouds and Discs having fay fall or glide should be in with 56.
That makes surprising sense!
When will they hover over water?
Now if they could only give the 4 legged mounts the ability to step up. Getting stuck on a 90* edge that sticks above the grade half a foot is annoying at best.
I remember asking for this as soon as we got the fae race. I was once in GFaydark and said to myself “gee that fae fall should be a bonus to this flying carpet i’m on, rather then me having to use a separate item for it”. So i sent in a /feedback about it lol.
