    Make ARR areas/maps flyable.

    Faster and more convenient to those who's just passing by to do some side quests and fates. Please.

    Not only that, the original ARR zones are so much smaller and simply not designed for flight - they are also far more detailed graphically (the trade off for the reduction in size), meaning SE would have to greatly increase the size of each zone just to compensate for flight.

    Not to mention that the ARR zones have 'tricks' used to give the illusion of being part of a larger area - for instance that rocky outcrop you see off in the distance? It's rendered in low resolution and is not designed to be seen up close (because a player was not expected to see it so close in normal gameplay). All this would have be altered and adjusted for little tangible reward. So I do not SE ever doing this I'm afraid.

    Besides, this is why ground mount running speed was greatly enhanced with SB, it's to compensate for not having flight in ARR areas.
