When asked what the most challenging was, Georgeson quickly referred to putting "flying characters in Velious, because we knew the higher-level characters would be able to unlock them quickly." The nice element is that there are few restrictions with the flying mounts. "You can literally fly over every overland zone we have in the game," Georgeson said. "It really opens up the game."
In addition, he said that there will be some of the new regions that are only accessible with the flying mounts. But the mounts are specifically tailored for the upper-level players, those that have earned their stripes and made it up to level 80 or 90. "We wanted to make sure it wasn't easily achieved by low-level characters," Georgeson said, adding that having a flying mount was tantamount to proclaiming "look at me! I've done something very cool."
