Well I guess we should just throw out all our flying mounts? Unless we want to awkwardly ride them on the ground I guess.Boo! Boo! They could at least let our existing mounts fly in this new "engaging" system.
Damn, this single feature might be the saving grace WoW has needed. If it makes all the people who can't stand losing a couple seconds of their time quit, then everything in the game will be more enjoyable!On paper the feature seems great and adds some RPG back into the game. Hopefully it will have a fluent feel to it.
Where do they actually say that?
Think Hiccup and Toothless.
what we can assume by what wasnt said in any videos.Dragonriding progress - not account widerenown leveling - not account widereputation - still not account widethe list is much larger but not as many people care about all the little details but basically sounds like another expansion that will be unfriendly to alts. They didnt say a single thing about anything being more alt friendly. They mention the new crafting system you might be able to request work orders from guild mates..... well what about alts? can i request a work order from my alts who have all this soul bound crafting crap from poorly designed previous expansions so i can craft some stuff for xmog? probably not as the work order system seems to function like an auctionhouse and you cant bid on your own auctions (without having 2 accounts)Flying is super important for alt lvling. It makes the repeat play throughs more tolerable. I imagine there will be a quest line to unlock dragon riding and that wont be an account wide unlock either so similar to the maw intro we will have to suffer through and then relevel the riding on all your alts.Like in Shadowlands when 9.1 took so long to come out so late after expansion release and we STILL couldnt skip the maw intro.... i decided UGH fine i will take my 30 remaining alts through the maw intro for a total of having done that intro 48 times. i would just que for timewalking and work on it in between dungeons. A few weeks after i finished on my 48th character of course they announce maw intro will be skipable in 9.1.5
Don't forget - Dracthyr get 'rudimentary' dragon flight ability.Stormwind Gazette, some future date - "Druid population mysteriously declines by 50% overnight. Again. Massive Dracthyr immigration wave reported same day by Alliance officials."Herbing & mining population shift, if I was being too subtle. Wonder how long it'll take the bot writers to account for the dragon flight mechanics.
I hope this replaces regular flying across the entire game eventually. Flying as it currently behaves is so brainless and terrible.
Blizz: Go spent the last ~ year of Shadowlands with crafting mounts in Zereth Mortis.Also Blizz: Don’t use said mounts in most of the next expansion.Let everyone build a sandcastle, kick it down and call it a fun game … that seems to be the primary development method.
Please, please please please please just let me fly like that around the whole game!Just make it optional! So people can choose how they want to fly, I really like the Dragonriding!Make it accessable to all zones in the game so you can also enjoy it elsewhere too!I know I sound like a doodoohead but really, for those who enjoy normal flying and the Dragonriding (S#$%cale riding from GW2), just make it optional!
Will we be able to use out customized dragon mounts as normal flying mounts in other places? Or do we only get to see our new friend when we are in the dragon isles?
Let us use regular flying in addition to this limited and gated "dragonriding"...
