[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 7173445, member: 6787650"] The Mobile feat is basically the same as flying in terms of its effect on how you have to design adventures. Better than flying in some ways (against ambushes), worse in others (against hordes)--but a first level human wizard with the Mobile feat and Longstrider cannot be killed by a CR 16 Iron Golem* and can therefore kill the golem with the right cantrip, and that illustrates the basic similarity between Aarakocras and Mobile humans. A party of all-Mobile PCs is crazy strong in certain ways. * Longstrider is for keeping out of range of the 15' breath weapon. If the terrain is sufficiently open, or if it's a different kind of golem like a stone or flesh golem, Longstrider is unnecessary. Furthermore, any PC with a 60 gp horse (or a goblin, gnome or halfling on an 8 gp mule) can accomplish something similar under many circumstances without any class or racial features at all.
