Flight Rising Discussion

I love them! They have the same vibe as Aethers to me. And they certainly still look more like dragons than some other breeds (looking at you, Everlux [emoji=tundra deadpan size=1])... I can't wait for them to get cheap so I can get a few breeding paris with large color ranges. And obviously a plant themed breeding paar, Moss is a fantastic tertiary and I hope it will be available for more breeds soon

[quote name="hurting" date="2025-11-15 16:42:08" ] I also just generally have a gripe about them being ancients because really their body plan does not deviate at all from the modern breeds' and I wish that the artists would lean into their stated intentions of making more outlandish dragon anatomy with ancients. I find this design to be extremely underwhelming given that context. [/quote] This is the only issue I really have. I mean, come on... look at them, especially the M pose, and tell me they wouldn't have worked perfectly as wyverns. I'm [i][b]dying[/b][/i] for more wyvern breeds, but we've been stuck at [u]one[/u] [emoji=banescale deadpan size=2] [sub]I really dislike the M pose, but removing the arms would make it 100% perfect. They were supposed to be wyverns, change my mind.[/sub]

The first time I saw the release thread and thought - oh my god does this breed not have adult forms? All three versions of the art look really baby-like and cutesy in my opinion- I hatched both my eggs and nabbed a release date hatch from the AH, they look like tiny Pokemons to me xD

I really love how different they are. I mean im already happy its not another bug dragon that i did fear at first sight, from the teaser. Finally another breed that has the big eyes like spirals, and just love their silly big heads. Even a bit of a chibi style is an unique concept we have not seen yet. I understand why people call it cartoony, but to me its so unique. Really really like this breed and hope to see more of this 'cartoony' concept.

Missed opportunity in my opinion.

[/quote] Same, I thought they were little wyverns, and even when I saw the arms I had to think about if they were [i]really [/i]arms because the design is so good [i]without [/i]arms. Plus it's adorable/hilarious to think about them tottering around on their back legs with their wing-arms full of treasure and trinkets.

Honestly im shocked at the backlash because imo this is kinda the best ancient they've done yet

I like them but they would be one of my faves if they didn't have arms.

They do not fit into my lair aesthetic *at all* but as a keeper of weird animals (amphibians) I absolutely adore them and had to make a weird bee creature immediately [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/104166869][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/1041669/104166869_350.png[/img][/url] I don't think I'll have any more lol, but I could NOT help myself
