Powers

Hover

For hovering and aerial combat. This power is much slower than Fly, but provides some Defense to all attacks, offers good air control, costs little Endurance, and has none of the penalties associated with Fly. Switch to this mode when fighting other flying foes. Hover also grants pseudo-knockback protection. Instead of getting knocked down and jumping back up, you just flip over in the air. - Hover received a 10% increase in speed in Issue 8

Fly

Fly allows you to travel large distances quickly. If you attack a target while this power is on, your flight speed will be temporarily reduced to Hover speed. Your top Flight speed increases with your Level. You must be at least level 14 and have Hover or Air Superiority before selecting Fly. Fly will no longer drain endurance to zero unslotted.

Flying allies suffer from reduced Accuracy. You must be at least level 20 and have two other Flight Powers before selecting Group Fly. MAJOR hit to Accuracy, use with caution. Popular at Hami Raids
