It’s getting worse with every new flying player. I sat yesterday and counted the number of flyers who swooped in and took an objective on one particular quest. 6 players got a quest completed for doing absolutely no work on it while I spent a hell of a long time trying to survive streams of mobs being pulled onto me.
I’ll have this crap done in a day or two but I feel sorry for anyone just starting out. Right now it feels like waiting for Shadowlands is the best option and that’s what I’d do if I wasn’t already at 95% complete.
They should also completely ban flying from Mechagon and Nazjatar simply because it’s causing so many problems for non-fliers. Reduced number of players actually helping each other (whether they realise it or not) with quests, plus the increase in griefing enabled by flying is making it worse and worse to get pathfinder done.
Shadowlands is still ~1 year away. The investment of less than 1 month right now will give every new player a long time flying-fun
Mechagon has jetpacks so everyone can ‘fly’, while Nazjatar is created with flying in mind. There are even things located on spots you can not get without flying (if you want to do the achievements for that crab-mount).
The outside world is created for grinding, fast finishing stuff. I am not sure why people would even do the emissary when they can not finish it in 30 minutes. It is daily repetitive content… when it would be terrible hard ‘nobody’ would do it (at least not with the current rewards).
Flying makes stuff easier. But it also is just more fun to go around. I for example have never used a flight location in Nazjatar anymore since I got flying myself and I have seen more of the nice environment.
Well, if they bothered to treat every max-level zone as Suramar, they wouldn’t need rep grinds.
It was something to look for every reset with another chapter of the story and way more fun than “do quests that take riddiculous time running around for X weeks because the rep they give is crap and doesn’t reflect the time invested into them”.
Do the Pet battles wq’s atleast once for each of the different encounters if you haven’t already, some might be a bit more difficult, but you should be able to get a few with some standard pets from the AH if you don’t have any yourself. each first time you do the encounter of a specific pet battle you get an item you can turn in for 250 rep I believe.
Flying makes Nazjatar much more tolerable as a zone. I honestly hated it while stuck on ground mount. It looks okay and all but the layout is just…
Look, if we can have zones like this then frankly we can have large complicated faction cities with lots of levels in those as well. So let’s see the capital cities get a huge upgrade. I just can’t see the point in keeping those simple when we have zones like this.
Mechagon was the quickest to get to revered than Nazjatar for me at least. But as for Nazjatar zone, nope that shouldn’t have been part of the pathfinder since it was a zone designed for flying or swimming at least.
They won’t stop because people will start whining that they think flying is ruining the game and it should be removed altogether
Even tho I’m almost at revered with the rustbolt resistance I still agree that the second part should be removed. Najzatar was cancer and It made me wanna kill myself.
Pet battles are cancer. The boss gets 100% evasion for every round, heals itself every round and even if you manage to kill it, its a mechanical so it will come back and deal 99999999+ damage to all of your pets. No thanks.
Except flying ruins lot of aspects in mmorpg game and there is pretty big audience what doesnt want flying in game. So blizz have 50% without flying mounts and 50% with flying mounts.
I also dont understand if someone dont like world content grind why that person need flying in first place. Its not like you need flying to run mythic+ or raid.
Just simply moving around in Zuldazar sucks. Not to mention Boralus which is a freaking maze (just as every alliance city) , also I want to complete storyline quests on my alts too. And ffs, if you don’t wan’t to fly , just don’t. And don’t ruin other’s fun instead by crying to blizz to make us grind rep if we want to fly. Flying has been in the game since the second expansion and it will always be part of the game. I don’t see it ruining anything if the zones were created with flying in mind.
Which is why I consider pet battles extremely stupid. 1000+ pets but only a small fraction of them is useful because they can’t nerf the OP ones and instead build the battles so you either copy-paste your teams or get rekt.
No it wasnt. Blizzard had no idea what will flying do to the game. They even regret that they have put it into the game but once its there its hard to take it out so they alest restrict it for some time. And if you dobt like flying just dont use it is nonsense. Flying is way too powerfull to pass on it no matter if you like it or not. I cab also say if you dont like pathfinder dont do it. And people doesnt want flying becouse its fun. People want it becouse its powerfull covinience. It has nothing to do with fun.
Yeah, you can do whatever you want i agree on that. But we should also be on agreement that if people can’t be asked to do said work said person doesn’t get flying i for one found it a normal thing.
