Nimh and Teriss venture into the eerie murk of the kryptis homeland, filled with foreign flora and fauna and tainted by the corruption of the Midnight King.

- How difficult you want the routes to be ? - Yes.
Indeed, the goal was to try harder things and that was achieved XD
Awesome flying! ♥
Thank you!
the intro gave me goosebumps, the music felt magical, then surprisingly much electronic in a good way, loved the outro too, I played the entire thing again on 2x speed and felt high lol I mean 10/10 content, you're awesome
Thank you, I do like the different vibes the music has going on so am glad that you enjoyed! Honestly never thought of playing stunt videos at higher speeds, feel like I'd get motion sick XD
Everybody fly around with the Skyscale. I just love my griffon ❤
you got me by surprise at 0.21 with the hidden bridge ! Well done ! Keep up the good work !! (VR in this game mode would be something !!)
It was a nice addition by the route creator, Emi, the invisible wall to the right-hand side before it was an unpleasant surprise the first time XD For sure a VR version would be insane, not sure I'd be any good at it but also if it was in first person then I wouldn't be able to see my pretty griffs while flying!
@@intransigentash true ahaha, we all want to see our beloved Griffs ^^
🇧🇷
OLÉ
last fly within the tunnel was sick !
Ah thank you very much!
Beautifully done both <3
ty pengu 💙
Thanks Pengu!
Which map is this?
Domain of Istan, from Living World Season 4
I wonder what was going through the mind of the Rollerbeetle racers when they saw a griffon just drop in and start chasing them
Ha no idea! Did have to lurk outside the exit of the previous cave a few times to catch a group vs a solo beetler, was fun flying alongside them!
That's a really chill vibe griffon flying video. I like it. ^^ "chill". Get it? Cause of all the snow? Heh.... Allright, I'll let myself out.
Ha thanks, and what a *cool* comment ❄
beautiful
Thanks Willow!
this is amazing!! the griffon skill is unreal and the shots of the event are gorgeous!
Thank you very much, really enjoyed pottering about and taking in the scenery :D
Aw, lovely vid, beautiful choice of music, somehow moved me to tears :D Love the shots with the holo dragons, amazing timing with everything in the background, just 👌
Welp you've got me blushing over here, thank you for your wonderful words ^ ^
Very nice flying to showcase the festival! Love the music with it aswell
Really appreciate that, this music hit all of the right vibes for me :D
I cried a bit, this is really heartwarming :') I can only say: olé 💙
Aww thanks for that - and olé indeed! 🙃
Amazing vid :D
Thank you kindly!
It's videos like these that remind me to take out my griffin buddy and soar out into the skies of Tyria from time to time. Just for the heck of it. The best mount in the game
Hey thanks, definitely the most fun one in my eyes and love just chilling in the air!
I must be missing some training somewhere…my griffon mount is a slow falling rock so I never use it. Though I do see people swooping by on griffons and I often wonder what is up with that. Any tips I am obviously missing would be appreciated. I got the griffon and went straight for the other mounts.
Do you have the masteries yet? The other mounts can all do their signature thing straight away (i.e. raptor can do its leap, jackal its dash etc) but you need to unlock the 3rd mastery on griffon before you can zoooom. So, once you have Aerial Finesse unlocked, when holding dive (*not* swoop, the 1st skill, that locks you into a fixed distance and dismounts you if you hit the ground so only use it to engage enemies on the ground) you can flap once and that gives you the speed boost - you'll get golden lines around you to show once you've done it successfully. If you're looking for more tips we have lots in the [Wing] server, or you can check out the guides by guildies like Thy Weeping Willow and Kat Drexed here on yt :)
I'm still in awe at this camera control, whenever I'm flying I can't make it look this smooth
Oh thank you :) I do use a bit lower DPI than some (1000) and with my old laptop, which I started flying on, there were so many frame drops that I had to avoid any sudden/jerky movements so that very much helped to develop the way I fly today!
Oh man this is incredible it'll be cool if you could let people know when you were flying around so we could watch you end game
[Wing] do have regular flying sessions on both servers so if you catch one of those then you'll be able to see a bunch of our fliers in action - we normally start in Queensdale so if you're ever near Altar Brook Trading Post keep an eye on the sky ;)
would have loved to stand in the middle of holebrak and watching this xD
Ha thanks, you'd have been treated to me crashing in a vast array of manners if you'd been there! XD
Beautiful. Than you so much for sharing :)
Thank you!
Really great work friends, proud of you both!
Oh my gosh this is amazing! You've added so many stunts that fit in naturally and took my simple base of a route to the next level, I love to see it! 🥰 My favorite part is at 0:28 as you alternate going through the wolf statues, looks so cool :3 and the music choice makes it even more epic :D Great job both of you, A+! 🧡
Well you did set up a nice mirrored looping so continuing that theme felt like a good idea 😉 Props to Silliel for the music suggestion, definitely has the right vibes! Glad you enjoyed and thank you for creating these challenges 🧡🖤
So happy to learn that ravens are songbirds by your side ^^ 💙🤎
Definitely, and we also honed our counting skills to boot! 💙🤎
What is the song?
I always include music info in the description, this is "Chasing Daylight" by the wonderful Scott Buckley
damn
:D
love this! every once in a while while doing meta trains id realize there is a veritable FLEET of skyscales and griffons, and every time I see it it gives me the shivers. absolutely blows my mind how amazing the mounts are.
Oh yep ANet really hit it out of the park with mounts, each has its own unique feel and the movement physics are fantastic. Always feels super cool being part of the air squad of griffons racing around during a meta!
lolllll
this is sooooooo funny 😂😂😂😂 thank you for showing us the other attempts aside from the good runs posted on yt! 😂😂😂 as someone who casually rides griffon n periodically tries a stunt n immediately bonks a wall, though made me feel alittle better (but also laughing historically in empathy) 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha thank you! Even the best fliers still bonk, we all do it, it's just a part of flying and even though it can be frustrating sometimes you just have to laugh at it XD I don't think a day goes by where I *don't* crash for some silly reason, griffon flying can be tricky so the more you do it, the more comfortable you'll get!
Nice flying!
Thank you!
meep meep^^
Your Waterfall crossing pass feels awesome ! ^^
It's such a cool moment while you're flying, makes the tricky entrance to the tunnel worth it!
Excellent song choice... and I do mean the cover
It's an amazing cover, never fails to put me in a good mood!
I've been practicing lots. Getting closer to flying better. One day I'mma fly smoothly like y'all. ;-;
Good to hear; the more experience you get, the easier it is to tackle a variety of stunts - keep it up!
Game?
Guild Wars 2! This was recorded on one of the Heart of Thorns maps :)
How do you plan your flight routes? Or is it spontaneous?
Well, for the weekly challenges our guild leader chooses set routes that other members of the guild have uploaded to our discord server, so you know what you need to do! ^ ^ If I want to create a route, I might choose a certain area that looks cool in a map and then try to find stunts there to incorporate into a route, or else I might just happen to run/fly past something that looks interesting and then go back and try to fit it into a route. If it's just chill flying then usually I'll pick random obstacles to fly through as I'm wandering around a map, but usually if I'm focused I specifically choose certain routes others have made to practise.
@@intransigentash Cool! I wonder, how do you do that upward spiral like at 0:23, and I saw it in previous videos that you do it downward too in a way that the screen isn't rotating.
If you use the strafe keys while diving and climbing you can do spiral dives and climbs! You do need to hit them with a certain timing, press and hold one until your griff turns as far in that direction as it can and then swap to the other to continue the turn, then repeat. Oh, and when diving you have to swap a little faster between the strafe keys than when climbing. You can practise by getting on your raptor and using the strafe keys while running, if you can get your circle smooth like that then you'll be able to do it in the air as well :)
I just started playing and I'm about 100 hours in, I can't wait to get one. The raptor just don't run fast enough, those damn pocket raptors keep fkin me up 😂
It's such a fun mount, you'll love it when you've got it (and the masteries)! The final jackal mastery does help with pocket raptors but those guys are rabid, fly too close to the ground and they can still get you XD
haha, pocket raptor hit like truck
It was a pleasure to fly together <3 The video is incredible ^^ Thanks again for everything 🐦💙🤎
Beautiful flying from both of you! 🤎💙
@@yuzik01 Thank you so much Yuzik 🧡🧡
It was really fun, though I definitely could have been a lot more alert 😄 💙🤎
Many thanks Yuzik!
That Tangled Depths circling hole dive was incredible!
Thank you - def found it a bit tricky but super satisfying when you pull it off!
I still can't get over how well this song fits, even though it's always the same one with different routes - this time it's really perfect :D
Very glad I happened upon it, got a nice mix of energy and chilled vibes I think :)
Well I'm convinced.
Hereafter I shall only rep one guild: [HOVR]
AHAHAHAHA! Awesome vid! Happy April Fools!! :D
Not sure what you mean, this is a very serious video altogether! XD
Oh this is epic <3
Thank you very much :)
Incredible! These videos just perfectly reflect how munomental GW2 maps are really. I envy you :D
They're fun to explore on foot as well but there's something special to me about flying in the forested maps. Ah with practise anyone can improve, feel free to check out the description to find Wing's discord server :D
@@intransigentash Thank you! But I am way too lame with left hand to properly control the griffon unfortunately, I tried a lot, so I guess I say on this side and continue to enjoy your videos. ;)
So...fluent. Beautiful.
Oh thank you for saying so!
How do you control the griffon so precisely?
You can tap the dive (not swoop) and climb skills to get smaller changes in height, and use a combination of the mouse and movement/strafe keys to control direction. ANet did a brilliant job making the griffon feel super responsive so with practise you can achieve a lot :D If you're interested, [Wing] run training sessions (check bio for link to the Discord server) or you can check out guides made by Thy Weeping Willow for some tips!
Nice flying! :D
Cheers Fluffy! :D
great vid <3
Thank you Willow, was a lot of fun to make :3
