More Yi Ling Utility Tips
Mostly used to fly high above pay2win pyro users, you can pull out weapons while gliding (and if you angle it right the glide is basically infinite) which is big especially on aberration.
Pump stamina to get better feather regen and get infinite airtime by resetting your dash (latch onto vertical objects or shoot 1 feather into anything and rupture it). You have infinite side dashes which give you significant momentum when in the air (turn your mouse 45° and press C+A/D)
Suggestion: (take notes wildcard!)
Since so many people are saying it's too similar to velos and rock drakes, make it so the yi ling's feathers have different abilities that match the spores on aberration, and one other just because it sounds fun:
Freezing feathers; slow the enemies with each hit, stacking like the rhynio ability.
Hallucagenic feathers: make the enemy hallucinate, with a certain amount of feathers needed to be shot at the enemy to trigger.
Pheromone feathers: attract reapers, and make nearby reapers less resistant. If near the player, stops the baby from killing you, and provides a passive xp buff to the unborn reaper
This is the first tip on Yi Qi
This creature will be on aberration when ASA comes out.
It will be a glider (not a flyer, more like a maewing or rock drake). We don't know about it's taming method yet, but it will be found in the blue and red zones of the map, not the green one. It will be able to shoot feathers that stack, and the more stacks there are on a Dino or player, the more damage will Yi Qi do to them. Good luck taming it when it comes out! - Tei
Why does everyone make tips about its abilities from the fan submission of the creature.. wait for the dossier to release! Most of these features will most likely change! Or at least say “in the submission” instead of “it will have” it causes confusion, wait for wildcard to release the actual abilities, because they probably won’t be the same as the submission. (take Rhyniognatha or fasola for example)

Reposting under proper dino (was posted under Ravager but helped me).
In case anyone is wondering what you need for the different feather types. Also Xbox hold X to change feathers (can’t have pet on shoulder or it brings up Shoulder pet options)
