Don't think I've used a single flight path in Dragonflight. But this is good for those who do use them!
We’re not even on alpha yet
We're having dynamic flying from the start, and static flying shortly after hitting max level. Having the flight paths go 25% faster seems rather redundant. Feels like a lazy non-reward.Just imo.
I get it, flight points are considered slow, but why is this considered a reward? I guess it just seems like a weird thing to earn. Sort of like how I think standard flying is a really freaking weird thing to have as a reward. Some people really struggle with dynamic flying and I feel like an accessibility option shouldn't be a reward. Just a given.
I already did the Feat Of Strength (very long ancient questline) for Epic Flight Speed. it should be worth something :/
Sure, I'll take an easy 25% speed increase to flight paths. I still use them all the time, so why not. They've always seemed unnecessarily slow anyway.
Very cool. Even if they make flight speed 75% of normal, then add a 100% for collecting all the FPs, this is good game design. Rewards for exploration and engagement.
I'm whelmed.
I've always felt that once you got a 280% flyer that flight paths became useless. I'm happy they are still around, and i'm happy to see they are making much needed improvements!
Oh my God you people will complain about anything! Some of us lazy casuals still use flight paths when we log on to do our chores.
I personally like this idea. I use flight paths to traverse the different areas instead of flying. That way I can go AFK and start laundry or something while I wait for my flight. It's a free achievement and buff to flight speed in TWW. I hope this achievement is account-wide.One thing I would really like to see is an ETA. Example... You fly from Orgrimmar to Thunder Bluff, I would like to see a timer that says you will arrive in 1-minute 30-seconds. That way I can play whatever I am doing outside of the game around that.
If it's just talking to flight masters, that's definitely doable. Not to mention, there are probably plenty of people who didn't realize how taxing Dragonriding would be to their systems.
What would be more interesting is every flight master being some vaguely humanoid void entity that every NPC believes is normal. However, when you find all of them, the last one thanks you for the data they gathered on you, disappears, and now each spot is a portal where you can just teleport to another one of the flight master spots.Each time you use this "flight master portal", something odd happens. Could be a character thing similar to engineer wormholes, or some void apparition appears and stares, or a nearby NPC dies then resurrects, or the world goes purple for 5 seconds, or something.
