Zoom in:


Difference between the "Flight" movement and walking movement in POE.
The Vaal Serpent-God have this special movement style locked in the chest skin that is very close to a real Flight movement. The movement and the Wings flapping are so smooth.

Recently GGG have invested more in microtransaction diversity creating more interactions in the game, like movement types, but for now these movements modes/styles is locked in a specific gear skin, making these items the only way to change the movement type. Most of the times we actually would like to use the effect(in this case movement mode) on these items, but use other skin gear in their place, for any reason.. if dont like the skin or the skin dont fit well in your outfit etc.
And about the movement mode, we already have some movement types but they are locked in a gear skin like the Levitation in the BodyArmour from 2023 Core Supporter Pack(this pack will never be able to buy again, the levitation movement mode should never be in a limited/temporary cosmetic like Supporters Packs), Surfing like in the new Cape/cloak and the Ice Footprint skin, and of course the Vaal Serpent-God body armour skin used in this video whose movement is very close to a real flight.

Look in the video how smooth is the movement with the wings in the left compared to the rigid walking in the right.

Here is where the new slot could be placed:


So technically you already have the "source code" to make a FLIGHT movement.
You GGG will have much more ability and creativity to create a bunch more movement types due to have a Slot exclusive for these movements.
So give to us the ability to FLY, we have a lot of wings in the game and over a decade still not able to fly.. In the future could ride a Horse, Rhoa or any other "mountable monster" maybe?. Give us ability to Sliding Walking like if were not physically touching the ground... Or some void tentacles that came from the ground and hold you up ... Or in a Scientist Sliding Wheels.... there is a lot of things that can be created to fit into this microtransaction slot. And of course it will help you GGG to get a lot of money! Who wouldnt want to fly?
