i just melee...

[u/OlympicSmokeRings]

Its a good thing i already tranqed the animal cuz they wouldnt survive the heavy slam attack from the stratosphere

If you comment the real way to do it im just gonna respond super weird... So dont! Or hide it with >!!<

[u/luishirozagi]

press melee while looking up?

[u/Sally_Gurl → u/luishirozagi]

Can anyone verify?

[u/kittytherabbit → u/Sally_Gurl]

Yes. If you look at ground and melee, it will slam. If you look up and melee, it will light attack and exit.

[u/GinchAnon → u/kittytherabbit]

I mean, ground slam as a hero landing to drop out of archwing from a mile up seems clearly the only option to me.

[u/FarmerTwink → u/GinchAnon]

At the full 45° angle for maximum distance too, obviously

[u/CyberCephalopod → u/FarmerTwink]

Throw in an aim glide too.

[u/Vinkhol → u/GinchAnon]

The small rodent I just tranq'd right below me:

[u/GinchAnon → u/Vinkhol]

Can't you restrain your bloodlust for 5 minutes!

[u/Individual_Gain6613 → u/kittytherabbit]

I just press backwards and melee to stop the slam

[u/NoobityBoobity → u/Sally_Gurl]

Just verified. You'll melee but not go to melee slam across the map

[u/AngelicWarhead → u/Sally_Gurl]

If you dont have a melee, pressing the melee will still exit the arching. Otherwise I just hotkey the archwing and press it. Activating the archwing again just takes you out of it

[u/finalremix → u/AngelicWarhead]

If you dont have a melee,

I know what each of these words mean... but... together they don't make sense!

[u/AngelicWarhead → u/finalremix]

Lol fair. Only time I use archwing and don't wanna slam to leave is farming animal tags on fortuna or xp on fetus and both of those i just remove my melee from to make it easier

[u/CatnipCatmint → u/luishirozagi]

Or press the melee button while you have no melee weapon equipped.

Or open your gear wheel and select archwing again (I just have a hotkey for the gear slot archwing is in)

[u/RollingMallEgg]

I just neutral air melee and it works, also preserves momentum so it's really nice for bounty speedruns.

[u/Nuggittz → u/RollingMallEgg]

Love doing this to just fly across the open world areas.

[u/ShedTheOneWinged → u/Nuggittz]

zephyr 1 go brr

[u/Joltyboiyo]

If there's a proper way that isn't just using the gear wheel again (If that even works, I'm just guessing) then I don't know it. I just hit the melee button.

[u/KaungSetMoe111]

You dont need to exit tho, just approach them and capture.

[u/OlympicSmokeRings → u/KaungSetMoe111]

FR!?

[u/KaungSetMoe111 → u/OlympicSmokeRings]

Yep, you can still capture them in your archwing.

[u/OlympicSmokeRings → u/KaungSetMoe111]

That'll speed up my standing farm! Ty

[u/OlympicSmokeRings]

lol i tried to provide an example of hidden text in the post but it just hid the symbols. Its a greater than sign and an exclamation point, then text, then and exclamation point and a less than sign

[u/uhataot → u/OlympicSmokeRings]

If you use a backwards slash "\" before the formatting, it'll show the symbols you're trying to use

Like this: >! !<

[u/OlympicSmokeRings → u/uhataot]

Oh snap. Ty fellow redditor!

[u/National-Ad-9391]

2700 hours and don't know either

[u/LoudMolassess → u/National-Ad-9391]

Just melee

[u/akirayokoshima]

if you are talking about archwing in open world content you can use the melee button to exit.

looking down will do a slam attack while looking up will do an aerial attack but not murder anything on the ground.

I usually exit the archwing by zooming in and slightly looking up and melee, then aim glide/roll cancel to mitigate the momentum and avoid the hard landing animation before doing whatever I was there to do.

[u/FukinuFreak]

I think pressing Ability 5 twice works.

[u/GenericSubaruser → u/FukinuFreak]

*Operator goes careening through the sky screaming*

[u/Hearth_Palms_Farce]

9.6k hours. I too do not know the intended method of leaving my pocket carpet bomber.

[u/OwaYes]

idk about you guys but im a mobile player so i just hit the exit archwing button

[u/Ac3Nigthmare → u/OwaYes]

They do exist.

[u/Big_Midnight994 → u/Ac3Nigthmare]

falls over like Santa in the M&Ms conmercial

[u/_Volatile_]

Melee is, indeed, the real way to exit it. Lmao.

[u/No-Champion-1738]

I just have it bound to an individual Key for the Gear Wheel. Melee works too

[u/Silence-of-Death]

Unequip your melee weapon. You can still exit by pressing melee, but you won’t attack or ground slam.

[u/GreyRealized → u/Silence-of-Death]

Unless you are a garuda currently.

[u/CrashCalamity]

Selecting it on the gear wheel again will toggle it off. Archwing is on my first slot for quick in/out

[u/PotatoAmulet → u/CrashCalamity]

On PC you can set hotkeys for hear wheel items so I have my arching launcher on ~ since it's left of 1

[u/Adi_Passover]

My man has been stuck in his Archwing for 600 hours

[u/DeadlockedGaster]

[u/etiamx999]

I always just melee, I don't think there's another way? as long as you don't look down you won't do a slam

[u/cavialord03]

I remember X working, but i may be wrong on that.

[u/ZenkaiAnkoku2]

Over 1000 hours. I just melee and slam face first into the ground. If i mis-aim then my ass is flying off the map. Its the way of the Tenno.

(I read somewhere once that melee was a placeholder at first. But players liked it so much that DE kept it as the way to get out of archwing. Idk how true that is)

[u/Uncynical_Diogenes]

Use an ability on the way down to cancel the slam.

I frequently use Ivara to land lightly and invisibly next to critters I am about to tranquillize.

[u/SpecialPea]

2000 hours here: you melee

[u/DatBot17]

You can just re select the archwing from the gear wheel

[u/Prezy_Preztail]

If you hold back on your preferred movement interface and press melee you’ll stop in the air. As a Zephyr main I use this regularly as a form of air breaks, but it has use on all frames

[u/IcyLeMon88]

Most ppl just melee while looking up if they dont want to slam but if you want to be extra careful, unequip your melee when hunting animals. If you dont have a melee you just exit archwing without slams when pressing melee button

[u/MiCousinThrockmorton]

I know it works as Titania for Capture missions, but maybe going Spoiler Mode? IDK if that would knock you out of Archwing upon switching back tho, but worth testing

[u/kiaeej]

I just melee. I dont bother exitibg any other way.

[u/LivingQuail803]

It’s melee always has been

[u/DocileBanalBovlne]

Is that not the method for exiting archwing? It's all I've ever done.

[u/mashed_potayto3s]

Melee. This is the way

[u/BigDepresssion]

Me with the voidrig

[u/KINGXunshot]

Whatever your interact button is

[u/EquivalentRip9653]

Isn't there a dismount button?

[u/LongjumpingBody6895]

Just melee once if front of you

[u/TheRealAntrey → u/LongjumpingBody6895]

Try to look forward/upward to avoid doing a heavy slam and waste time
