Dynamic flight & the death of Pathfinder 💞

I am really grateful to Blizzard with the way flying will be tackled. The dynamic flight will be unlocked from the start of the expansion and the regular flying will not be locked behind path finder anymore :heavy_heart_exclamation: I will reach maximum level, do the campaign, explore the zones and it will be unlocked :partying_face:

So huge thanks to Blizzard for finally listening.

how naive every regular flying will be locked behind pathfinder but enjoy the flight mode they stole from guildwars 2 :smiley:

Removed pathfinder at 36:50 Ion basically says there won’t be path finder anymore :blush:

ion lies though i wouldn’t trust that man to tell the truth anymore then todd howard

There will still be a pathfinder achievement but it will not include reputation locks.
meaning by simply playing the game (not that it was any different with reputation locks) you’ll unlock the pathfinder

Will still use TBC flying style myself, i want to chill in the air.

Who cares about boring old flying. I don’t. Dynamic flying is just too good to go back. Looking forward to the day I can use Dynamic flying everywhere.

The TBC-zones are gonna feel REALLY small when zooming across them at 8-900% speed.

I hope that they have the self confidence and belief in their new flying system at this stage to simply introduce both at the same time next expansion.
I get that they needed to give the new system some time to bed in (I don’t think it needed a whole year but meh). People are used to the new system now and they know how to use it (or not for those of us who can’t use it).

Anyone who uses traditional flying at this stage is someone who can’t use Dragonriding for whatever reason so there is no need to punish those players by forcing them into a system that doesn’t work for them.

Stole? Since when is games inspiring eachother stealing? By that logic, half the gaming industry has stolen something from blizzard, at one point or another.

They really seem to be embracing the whole respect the player’s time going forward.

It’s been such a breath of fresh air!

it seems like they’ll keep improving dynamic flight. i don’t think it’s good enough for me to use it all the time especially the mid air afk issue is a big no for me . gw2 lets you do that i hope wow will too

In my opinion the removal of the reputation requirement is huge. I looked at Dragon flight pathfinder and it has 6 factions with renown 15 as a requirement. Cutting that and leaving the storyline + exploration is exactly as you said just playing the game.

Having the renown is adding more farm which is stupid. I really like the current plan Blizzard have as it is quite close to what was in Wotlk (Leveling to max and buying the skill). Now it is leveling + exploration + story which is almost the same to me.

Different players like different things and the two flying systems have their specific uses for different situations.

it was barely any farm or grind at all if you simply played the game a few times every few months.
Like I’m inactive a lot. last time i logged in was like 3 months and before another 3 months. and all my renowns are 15+ wit niffen being the lowest at 12.

It is only ever an issue if you started just a week ago
