# Airbending
Air is the element of freedom. The key to Airbending is flexibility and finding—as well as following—the path of least resistance. Airbending is remarkable because it is almost entirely defensive, yet it boasts the most dynamic moveset of all four bending arts. Airbenders can overwhelm many opponents simultaneously with large and powerful attacks that have the potential to be lethal.
**Mobility & Survival**
Airbenders specialize in mobility and defense. The mainland is an ideal place for an Airbender, as they can quickly scale massive mountains or cross the vastest deserts. While they are capable of bending in water, an Airbender will find themselves much more effective on land.
**The Way of the Pacifist**
Airbenders are natural pacifists. By nature, they do not deal high amounts of raw damage, but they compensate for this through their agility, utility, and speed.
* Metabolism: Airbenders have a reduced hunger rate, allowing them to travel further with less food.
* Graceful Landing: They are immune to all fall damage.
**Getting Started**
To use your abilities, you must bind them to a slot on your hotbar using the command: `/b bind [skill]` Detailed instructions for each ability can be found below.
