How do we balance this type of unit?
What are your favorite Wyvern Riders?

>>718617976 (OP)
Just make them slow and low res.

>>718618157
I think low defence is more important since they make archers a joke.

>>718617976 (OP)
You only get like 1. Lose them? Tough shit I guess.

remove all flying units

>>718618827
They don't need low defense, just not General-tier defense.
Flier-effective tomes should be more ubiquitous in reclassing games.

I love Engage but I cant forgive that and male dancer.

I like Cormag, but that is probably just nostalgia.

Bring back indoor map rules.

>How do we balance this type of unit?
Two ways. If you want it to remain as strong as it is, then you have to severely limit the availability of people that can get the class. The other is nerfing their stats so they're less potent than cavalry and unmounted units. In particular they should have a more Fighter or Mercenary-esque stat spread, compared to Peg's Myrmidon-esque type.

>high strength, decent defense and hp, low speed and res
>mounted units have 6-7 move, while foot units have 5-6
>foot locked units are universally more powerful outside of mobility
This is all I really want. Engage giving mounted units higher stats than foot locked units was one of the most retarded things I've seen.

>>718621992
Foot units at least had useful bonuses with their subclasses, while horses and wolves were completely screwed over.
I don't think cavalry should be just universally weaker unless there's something to do with that high move, like rescuing.

>>718617976 (OP)
Remove reclassing. Engage would be pretty well balanced if Rosado is your only wyvern other than maybe Chloe. Panette and Kagetsu wouldn’t be so op if they were stuck with their classes too for that matter

Movement is always extremely powerful, which is the issue. There's no reason to pick Swordmaster when Griffin Knight gives higher stats in almost every single category, on top of extra movement and staves. It's ridiculous. I feel like in exchange for the movement, they should be more specialized so while they have their uses and the movement helps them get to those situations easier, they can't take on as many types of situations as a foot locked unit. The only weird one would probably be Paladin which is meant to be more generalized, and you could probably make them work by giving back control over the weapon triangle in exchange for lower stats than a footlocked unit.
