Flying should be allowed in the Maw. Only if you have the Sintouched KSM mount. :-)
Why not just include it at launch then? What's the difference between 9.1 and November, other than "time"?
PLEASE! And the night fae flying transformations. I think they should add a flying item like water walking. Blanchy HAS to fly though.
Oribos defo isn't designed for flying. As well the skybox being quite small, there are invisible walls everywhere (all around the toop area and in the gaps of the walls). Also you even remotely go out to the edge or bottom, the fall mechanic kicks in and your body (including mount) flies down to the bottom and the fall sound plays, leaving you stuck. Don't ask how i know this, i just do :)
So dumb and pointless. The zones aren't even connected...
To be honest, this is not bad. I actually agree that The Maw should remain a no fly zone like the Timeless Isle or combat zones like Tol Barad. Also remember there are starting zones that you cannot fly in! Adds a bit of spice to the game.
I honestly don't really care about the Maw at this point. I tend to play my main to some extent and level alts. So being able to fly in the four main zones so quickly makes me happy, more so since I'm trying to single-handedly get the all main race/class combo guild achievement in my private guild.
Maw will probably never be flyable and that's fine, but y'all CHILL at the "new zones" part. they're probably for 9.2 or 9.3 like come on now...
You are never going to be able to fly between zones. If you have an addon that shows your movement speed during the interdimensional travel part, you will see that when the background goes dark, you are moving at something like 11,000% movement speed. The zones are on the same map, but EXTREMELY far apart. It would take MUCH longer to fly by mount from Oribos to the other zones, even if they allowed it.
so if you want to "fly" to oribos once flying is unlocked, you go through the big flying anima gate of your zone, and then it's automated and you arrive at the flightmaster ?
not sure why anyone was expecting to fly in the maw. to this very day you cannot fly in Argus, isle of giants, timewalking isle, etc. It was obvious it will be a no flying zone because of the huge effort you put into getting a mount that works there.
You must have missed BfA. We could fly in all zones even new ones added.
For Oribos I just want them to enable mounts in the inner rings. There's no real need to fly there other than... well having fun with it and go onto places you normally can't. But at least let us mount everywhere and if they feel extra fancy: dismount aura at important NPC's/devices.
*Ahem*They already said, literally months ago, that they don't want to make Pathfinder part of the requirement anymore - can't say what other requirements it might need but safe to say, it is EXTREMELY unlikely to be something like PathfinderPersonally I'd be interested if they were to make a short, like extremely short, quest for each covenant once you have completed the covenant campaign to unlock itIt'd be a pretty darn useful way of making it a natural part of gearing up characters, provide it for max level characters and not ruin the explorative aspects that need to exist for new players and first time characters (i.e. first time part of a covenant)
