  1. I wish there was a toggle to have specific mounts be dedicated to static flying AND you have other mounts with sky riding. For example, there's times when i am questing around or looking for nodes when I want static flying, but if I'm going long distances, I want sky riding right after. Having to do a full channel ability in order to swap instead of having some kind of mount menu toggle for specific mounts is gonna feel like a bit of a bummer 🙁 It's nice to have both at your disposal for different purposes.

  2. the one problem i have with the switching being 5 seconds is that if I ever ran out of vigor, I'd swap to a normal flying mount until the vigor came back. So it's going to be a lot more arduous and annoying to do that and let the charges of vigor come back. Honestly, they should probably just get rid of vigor for anything that's not a race

  3. I love that the team was so hard on the I hate flying kick because it "ruins the game" "makes the world feel small" "trivializes content" but are all in with a version of flying that is essentially ten fold worse. It makes me think, maybe they were just bullshitting like so many wow players who were anti flying.

  4. Why does switching flying styles need to be a cast? That’s so dumb. I use both styles all the time now as I don’t always need dragon riding and most of the time it’s inferior as you can’t even float in air or fly a short distance without having to do an actual takeoff. Just make it an instant cast spell that doesn’t demount you.

  5. This just seems worse to me, the 10 second cast to change sounds awful. I use both currently all the time, so having to stop and wait 10 seconds is bad design.

  6. i really dont understand the fun police approach to nerfing flight speed outside the dragon isles. like what actual purpose does that serve? the rest of the world is much MUCH bigger than the dragon isles so size of the map doesnt make sense, barely anybody will be going to the dragon isles during the war within just like now no body is in shadowlands and this trend carries on as far back as you can go. why. just give us the full speed it makes no sense lmao.

  7. So they're still capping dragonriding in the new expansion's zones? You'd think they'd only do this for the old zones that are smaller, not any new ones they make. Why only have it be fast in the dragon isles and slow in every new zone they make?

  8. Oh god.. They baked in the "hovering" effect into aerial halt? That sucks man.. I don't take that point in the tree. I hate hitting the stop button and then not being able to land for several seconds. It's a REALLY annoying point that I was hoping they'd do away with.

  9. I can’t use SKYRIDING cos I can’t l can’t land 😜😜😜 no matter what I use (mouse, trackpad, keyboard) I circle slowly not land directly. I used dismount a few times but if I forgot I wasn’t on a Druid or slowfall char I died 😜
    I gave up. Slow and direct landings for me.
