[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 4960430, member: 19675"] Flight isn't basic. Flight is most commonly accessible as a 3rd level spell, then next through shapechanging of some kind. But not everyone is a spellcaster or Druid, and not every spellcaster likes to buff partymembers. Or burn XP to make magic items. And even more importantly, not every party has Fly as one of their [I]renewable[/I] resources like a Sorcerer's spell or a Druid's shapechange, but rather as a potion or scroll or the like. IOW, once its gone, its gone for good. And if it is expended before the crucial juncture... So I say again: if a designer writes an adventure in which flight is the only way to succeed in the mission, then he's well advised to include some kind of access to flight that doesn't depend on the party already having that power before the adventure begins because to do otherwise could result in some ticked off players.
