Comment by Fixi Convenient as mounts are, they completely eliminate the need to look for and use a number of different tools which make players engage less with the game, not more.Comment by johncleverI am a bit mad that druids can shape shift to travel form. This alone would be fine but I guess it's really hard to drink in the maw.

I'll gladly give up my gem socketsComment by DarknessvampIt's almost like you don't need a mount to travel through the Maw if you're willing to just be a little creative.

Sandstone drake (vial of the sands mount)Comment by jkowalkeI honestly think the game designers have some overarching need to make us spend lots of time traveling to places. I looked up the reason why the Flight Master Whistle doesn't work in SL and Ion's answer was that they are not making us fly back and forth between zones all the time. Meanwhile, I am constantly taking flight paths from Sinfall to the other zones, via Oribos, to do callings every day. Look, it's fine, at least it doesn't take 8 minutes like flying from Dalaran to the Nexus, but I was really hoping that they would expand the FMW, not get rid of it. No other MMO that I have played (ESO, FFXIV, SWTOR) makes you spend so much time traveling.

On the other hand, gives me time for lots of bio breaks.Comment by tpittma2Darkmoon Cannon + Goblin Glider is arguably one of the best combos available for anyone and is pretty easy to get. It just required Darkmoon Faire (which is currently up).Comment by HunterLifeTip1: Be a Worgen
Tip 2: Be a Demon HunterComment by AsaliahThe best way to have fun in the maw is doing the weekly and never going back anymore.

At least until they fix the group phasing crapComment by KoleckaiI just stealth everywhere as a feral druid.Comment by DayonRolavIt's almost like you don't need a mount to travel through the Maw if you're willing to just be a little creative.

I recall using gunboots was a creative way of navigating the Maw. They nerfed their usability there.

You can only be as creative as Blizzard allows until they think otherwise.Comment by TaneoOr just roll a druid or even shaman. Hell, most classes have some kind of low-CD or resource intensive mobility built in. However, tough luck if you don't. Paladins and DKs come to mind, because well that's what I'm playing... naturally.Comment by Nzallreddit links don't work : /Comment by sngmtokosDarkmoon Cannon, borr-geth's fiery brimstone and most importantly the Falling Flame from timeless isle (super rare drop though) are great for travelling in the maw.Comment by MorldenInstead of using the Gnomish Gravity well, you can use the Borr-Geth's Fiery Brimstone which drops from Borr-Geth. It also launches you in the air.Comment by mikamukaI like long stealth walks in the Maw.Comment by SfyriPick up the darkmoon faire cannon. It's earned by getting the gold achievement in The Big Race using the power monger and it gives you considerable height for gliders and parachute.
