Flying Mounts in Hogwarts Legacy refers to the magical beasts that wizards and witches can use to traverse the Wizarding World. Unlike Brooms, which only allow its users to fly, Flying Mounts can also be used on the ground, acting like a normal horse would. The most popular flying mounts are the Hippogriffs and the Winged Horses, which include many diverse breeds.
- If you want to learn about Brooms, please feel free to refer to that page.
Do I have to choose between Flying Mounts or Brooms?
For obvious reasons, players are able to only use one of the aforementioned types of flying transports at a time, but this doesn't mean that you have to stick to one or the other. Wizards and Witches are able to decide freely between them in any instance of the game where flying is permitted.
What Do I need to start flying?
Players don't need to learn a certain skill or ability to be able to fly. As soon as they receive their first Broom or Flying Mount they can use either to fly through an area that allows flying.

Hippogriffs in Hogwarts Legacy

Hippogriffs
Hippogriffs are half-eagle and half-horse magical beasts. They are proud creatures that demand proper etiquette by the person approaching them. Hippogriffs are also extremely loyal and fiercely protective of those who have earned their trust, going as far as to put themselves in danger in order to help those persons they trust.

I had a really cool name in mind until I realised Caligo is ready named and can't be changed. Darn it Obscurio was going to be a great name.
