I’m looking for the fastest way to get the Fly ability without using any mods. Any tips or recommendations from personal experience would be great!

If you choose an arcane spellcasting class, you’ll gain access to flight spells starting at level 5. Storm Sorcerers have it even better since they can do it at level 1. One tactic I heard is knocking out Raphael in Act 1 to get helldusk armor, which might still be there; this could help you get flying earlier as long as you’re fine with heavy armor.
Definitely go with the Storm Sorcerer! Also, if you snag Feather Fall, you can activate the flight without using up a spell slot. It’s a nifty trick if you’re looking to fly around without burning resources.
Starting as a Storm Sorcerer is probably the quickest way to get Fly. When you cast a leveled spell, you can use a bonus action to fly. If you miss that, keep an eye out for potions or scrolls; they’re sometimes random loot or available from traders. Just a heads up, I’m not sure if there are guaranteed drops for them. Another cool option is Enhance Leap, which lets you cover large distances based on your strength.
I’m a fan of the Potion of Fly myself! You can also grab one from Auntie Ethel if I remember correctly.
