You finally get to the Heavensward areas only to find out that in order to fly you have to find aether currents all over these massive new zones. Well never fear I have a guide to help you find all of the aether currents in the Churning Mist area of Dravania.

Location: (x30, y35)

This one is pretty easy to find just heat through the tunnel to the east of Moghome and follow the rocky path.


Location: (x36, y26)

This one takes just a little more effort and jumping skills. As you head to the area, look for a mountain. It will be on a flat area near the top.


Location: (x21, y20)

This one is pretty easy. Just make your way towards The Rookery and it will be on the path.


Location: (x34, y15)

The next one is slightly hidden. As you make your way towards the Monsterie you'll see in in a torch bowl towards the back east end. Be careful because a lot of Tullhands surround it and they can easily swarm you.


Location: (x23, y19)

This one is not too hard to find. Make your way to the Monastery but turn left at the fork. You will find a large area on a lower level. The aether current is right behind the wall sticking out of the ground.


Location: (x16, y20)

This one is the stinker. To get to this one you have to climb all the way up to The Rookery and take the western staircase. Then head to the southern part of that section just past the pillars.


Location: (x7, y27)

This one is one of the easiest to find. Just head to the top of the tower in the Zenith Sanctuary.


Location: (x17, y27)

To find this one simply head towards the Asah Settlement and you'll find it on a cliff overlooking it.


Location: (x20, y26)

Another really easy one. Simply climb the western tower in the Asah Settlement.


Location: (x18, y7)

Head towards the northernmost area of the zone to a place called Tharl Oom Khash. Once inside you'll find a staircase slightly to the north. Once upstairs head left and you should see it.


The next five aether currents can only be found by doing quests. Each quest is unlocked by completing one of the main story quests with the addition of a side quest here and there.
