I was trying to find out some info about how wings are displayed on your avatars ingame, are they always visible (both on ground and in the air, in combat or not) or are wings only visible when in flight? If only during flight, I am guessing they just appear on your back? Maybe its only when in combat do wings appear?

Either way, would like some linked info and sources if anyone could. Thanks.

From what I've seen in video's, the wings only appear when you activate the flight ability.

Which means when you want to fly you make your wings appear and lift off.

Ok so the asmodians and elyos are basically just human factions in which our characters reach demigodhood and become daeva. Now I can understand, sort of, why you do not always see the wings as they were human once, not races born with wings.

The wings appear when your character enters flight mode, uses the Glide skill, or by using the "Boast Wings" emote.  The wings do not display automatically when in combat mode.

If you always keep your word, your word becomes law in the universe.

Can the wings be made more transparent? They block a lot of the view as far as I can tell from game play footage I saw.

Can the sound of the wings be turned off? I find the sound annoying.

Thanks muchly. I did have to sign-up for yet another vBullentin site to see it, but the image was informative.  The volume controls are not granular enough to just block a particualr sound.

I'm sorry, the picture belongs to that particular fansite, and it's not in my interest to place it somewhere else. As Roxianna noted however, there's no particular feature to disable the sounds of the wings. My guess is that it counts as Overall Volume.
