In Guild Wars 2, obtaining a flying mount requires unlocking the Skyscale, as it is the only true flying mount in the game (the Griffon is more of a gliding mount). Heres how to get it: Step 1: Requirements Expansion Needed: Path of Fire (for mounts) + Living World Season 4 (specifically Episode 6: "War Eternal" for the Skyscale). Mastery System: Must have the Mounts mastery line unlocked. Other Mounts Needed: You must already have the Raptor, Springer, and Skimmer (acquired via Path of Fire story). Optional but Helpful: The Griffon (for easier navigation during collections). Step 2: Unlocking the Skyscale The Skyscale is obtained through a lengthy collection quest called "Saving Skyscales". Heres a summary: Phase 1: War Eternal Story Complete the Living World Season 4 Episode 6: "War Eternal" story to unlock the Skyscale collection. Phase 2: Skyscale Collections (Multiple Steps) "A New Friend" Gather items to heal a baby Skyscale. - Requires 250x Charged Quartz Crystals (time-gated, 1/day per account). - Other materials like Lump of Mistonium, Difluorite Crystals, etc. "Raising Skyscales" Complete tasks to bond with your Skyscale. - Feed it (requires 12x Skyscale Food, bought from vendors). - Play with it (mini-games in Dragonfall). - Treat its sickness (more material gathering). "Skyscale Flight" Train your Skyscales flying abilities. - Complete time trials in Dragonfall. - Collect Skyscale Saddles (from jumping puzzles and events). "Skyscale Lost" Find missing Skyscales across Tyria. - Requires visiting various maps (e.g., Bloodstone Fen, Draconis Mons, etc.). Phase 3: Final Unlock After completing all collections, return to Dragonfall to claim your Skyscale! Alternative: The Griffon (Fast Gliding Mount) If you want a fast aerial mount (but not true flight), you can get the Griffon: Requires Path of Fire. Costs 250 Gold (for collections). Complete a series of achievements ("Open Skies"). Tips for Faster Skyscale Unlock Stockpile Charged Quartz (craft daily at a Quartz Node). Farm Eternal Ice Shards (Bjora Marches) to buy LW4 currencies. Use a Guide (YouTube or GW2 Wiki for exact locations). The Skyscale is the best flying mount, while the Griffon is faster for long glides. Both are worth getting! Would you like a more detailed breakdown of any step?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
