Description
Gliding will get you to where you want to go. But what if you want to get there faster? Diving after jumping from somewhere high will give you a speed boost. As long as you fly well, you can conserve your momentum and gain some height after a dive. Fly through the rings to the target location. If you find yourself stuck, use the Bronze Timepiece and Celormu will reset you.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- How to Glide with Your Dragon
Let us start with the basics. If you fly straight you will wear yourself out right now. Use gravity as an aid and aim slightly down to fly a long distance. The rings will give you the general angle that you should use for basic gliding.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Need For Higher Velocities
Sometimes you'll need to travel longer distances. If you don't need to travel up and over any obstacles, using Surge Forward is the easiest way to maintain a good forward speed to prevent yourself from plummeting out of the sky.
