They can be found in the fields outside of Ashford Village and near the gates of Ascalon City in Pre-Searing Ascalon. Contary to the information on the Prima Guide and copied by many other fansites, they do slashing damage just like regular Moa Birds, as opposed to Piercing damage.

Notes

• Previously, if you attacked the Striders near the location of the Beautiful Feather outside of the Ashford Abbey and killed them, one or more aggressive Striders would appear and attack you. This is believed to be an allusion to the killing of Cuccos in the Legend of Zelda games.

• Outside of the Barradin Estate, a strider spawns next to a resurrection shrine. This bird is very useful for death-leveling.

• Striders leave human footprints when walking
