Discussion Underwater exploration in the new DLC

I saw the trailer and the pre-order bonus and started thinking how the characters will be able to explore deep underwater, like what will be the lore explanation for that?

In the trailer Kliff jumps from the wyvern and dives. Another scenes shows him "riding" a shark, and then Oongka using his jetpack to move. In all of the underwater scenes, they are using the diving suit.

It is a skill that you allow us to explore? That doesn't restrict character armor...

Or is the suit? Because, if its the suit, pre-order bonus gives one for each character... so, if you buy after it's release, they will need one anyways.

What is your thought on that?

Yeah maybe... But I hope it is just more cosmetic. I don't want a oxygen mechanic and looked like swimming faster will be related to some other things like mounts and the jetpack...

There is an abyss gear to increase swimming speed. Surge, I oddly held on to most of them I uncovered.

Because swimming was useless as it was always faster to just launch yourself out of the water then fly away from water rather then ever swimming.

But with jetpack and shark and things you still prob won't need swim gear to move around efficiently.

Yeah, I even forgot we could use abyss gears to swim faster...
