Faster Questing, Herbing And Mining - Instant Switch Between Flight Styles (Patreon)

There is a peculiar glitch affecting flight styles when you are in party sync mode. If you have selected steady flight and turn on party sync, you will instantly switch to skyriding when you go through any kind of zone change. You can tell you have gone through a zone change as the game usually flashes up the new location when you pass into a new area.

This is a big deal for movement efficiency even though it sounds subtle. You can group up, perhaps with a free starter edition account, and switch to party sync mode whenever you want to turn on skyriding. This can be done without the 5-second penalty from changing flighty styles in the normal manner.

Steady flight, the traditional form of flight, is much better for questing and in a localized area. Skyriding, or what used to be called dragonflight, is best for travelling large distances. Removing the penalty from switching styles makes for faster questing and also faster herbing and mining.

Gathering can be done without dismounting in steady flight https://www.patreon.com/posts/mining-while-119717741

so used in conjunction with this trick you will be able to gather much faster than other players.

This makes leveling via gathering faster if you enjoy this way to level-but be aware it is not the fastest method even with this technique.
