Bump Normal Flying speed

Community General Discussion

I don’t necessarily dislike dragonriding, I’ve been almost exclusively using it since was introduced, but I do wish they added a new speed bump to normal flying that you train/unlock through exploration/outdoor activities.

Dragonriding is fine, I just don’t see any extra thrill/challenge in pressing a button every 2-3 seconds or so and aiming the tip slightly downward to not lose momentum. Sometimes I just wanna aim the mount in the general direction I want to go to, or AFK mid-air in one spot without having to look around for a safe cliff. I probably had more fun doing some random drops - shapeshift mid-drop on my druid. And the second hand servers used to run WoW loading nodes and rare mobs after I already passed them don’t do any favors to dragonriding.

Maybe next expansion add a new flying rank that bumps speed to like 400-450%.

I agree, I think they should remove all mounts and let players interact with the world more.
Maybe have some grappling hooks, or introduce the ability to climb.

You can’t start a sentence with “I agree” then say the opposite of what the guy said.

As a fellow masochist (healer) I do love the idea of making us literally crawl through the map without mounts. :+1:

I can and I will.

Certainly a compelling reason to increase the flying speed. So you can afk standing still…

You dare calling dragon riding boring?
Oh dude, prepare for the raid coming for your head.

According to MrGM, Master Riding will be unlocked at level 30 and it’s going to be 420% speed, up from 310%.
So yes, your wish seems to be granted.

This is the only way I have ever fully appreciated a zone - RP events where you are having a mass exodus round the map.

That’s not enough, make everyone backpedal!

I’d be fine with a hot-air balloon mount that moved at RP walking speed.

The main reason I use flying mounts is to get over maze like terrain which is only designed to be annoying.
