Yes the portion that's over capped speed does nothing. However, the point of this power is its phase component; I think they over did it on the flight speed to make sure the speed is capped when you use it, so you can get the heck out of Dodge before the phase wears off.

I have a question about this power, why does it cost 6end/sec to use? That seems extremely high and sounds like it would drop anyones blue bar in seconds.

Because it's meant to be a panic button, a "get away quick!" power, not an actual travel power.

but panic powers being used usually mean your low on health and end in which case this seems like it would fail. I use it but I hit conserve power first. |

Just seems really high when any toon set up I can think of running upwards of 12 toggles all added up don't equal the end cost of this power. Just seems like a giant oversight and since not many play kelds nothing has been done about it.
Given the way phase powers now work, I'd agree that a reduction in the endurance cost would be nice. Quantum Flight does have the distinction of being the only instant-activation phase power, but with the new limitations on phase powers I can see dropping the cost. At least the cost is not as high as it once was.
The above comments are correct about the flight speed cap - once you reach that, any further flight speed is wasted, which is why you don't see the full speed you expect. It stops at the flight speed cap.
QFly is quite good in certain circumstances, but is not good as a travel power.

It's actually extremely handy if you set up a macro or bind for it. For instance, a lot of the time, I'll use it when I get in trouble when tanking for a team (in Dwarf) and running low on health. I have it bound as a mouse button so that I can hit it and hit some emergency heals and buffs (or god mode) without really missing a beat.
Only thing that's dangerous is if you don't realize you were hit with a mez before you try to use it while in a fight....
I asked the help in game and they said to go to the forums to get an answer. Quantum Flight gives you a speed boost over 80mpr but I am capped around 52 mph. Why have this power if it does not work. Is there something I am not doing? Thanks for any advice.
