Moderate damage, foe knockdown and -fly. Very useful in bringing down flying foes, and slotted right can literally juggle foes to death. It has very good accuracy on it's own and good chance to knockdown.

Safest way to travel, though initially the slowest and most expensive. Unslotted fly will drain your endurance in about 5 minutes.  
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.''

Effective Fly for you and your Team members. Same endurance usage but at slow speeds, and a major hit to Accuracy. Not recommended for use in combat.
You can endow your nearby teammates with Flight. Be mindful! Your friends will fall if you run out of Endurance or if they travel too far away from you. Group Fly travel speed is slower than Fly. 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 Raid]]s''

Flight Speed

This section only applies to the speed of Fly. Hover and Group Fly use different calculations.[1]


Calculating Flight Speed

Feet Per Second

(21.00 FPS base) + ((1 + sum of enhancements) * (18.18 FPS + (LVL * 0.21)))

Miles Per Hour

(14.32 MPH base) + ((1 + sum of enhancements) * (12.4 MPH + (LVL * 0.143)))


Flight Speeds

Speed at Level 14

Enhancements FPS MPH
None 42.12 28.72
1 Flight DO 45.65 31.13


Speed at Level 22

Enhancements FPS MPH
None 43.80 29.87
1 Flight SO 51.39 35.04
2 Flight SO 58.98 40.22
3 Flight SO 65.46 44.63
4 Flight SO 66.60 45.41


Speed at Level 50

Enhancements FPS MPH
None 49.68 33.87
1 Flight SO 59.23 40.38
2 Flight SO 68.78 46.89
3 Flight SO 76.93 52.44
4 Flight SO 78.36 53.42


Note: you cannot reach the flight speed cap through slotting alone.
