Gliders are one of the main features of ArcheAge not traditionally found in other MMOs. Gliders allow users to travel, explore, and access difficult to reach places.
One can buy a glider on Mirage Island or obtain it early on through a quest. The glider gained through the latter is the Experimental Glider and has low gliding ability, speed and maneuverability. It can be updated through several crafting steps with items obtained at Mirage Islands for a total of 1.75 Gold up to the Ultimate Glider.
