Flying as a reward for clearing normal raid with one character

Community General Discussion

How about instead of timegating flying, you tie it to certain things to have done on a single character?
For instance, you should have cleared all the quests in the current expansion.
You also need to have discovered all the zones and areas. You need to gather 1000 uncommon quest-drops, that can drop off any mob in the current xpac.
After you’ve done these things, an epic questline opens up needing to kill every boss on normal difficulty in the first xpac raid.
Additionally if you clear the bosses on hard >> +10% flightspeed;
and if you kill them on mythic >> +25% flightspeed.

You are always looking for a carrot to have people raid and form guilds again.
This could be just that carrot.

And people need to win atleast 50 arena games / 10 RBG.

Why force pvp player in pve and not also do the same with forcing pve player in pvp

Flying is pve content. There is no flying in pvp. If you only do pvp, you don’t need it.

Nobody is punishing you if you choose not to fly.

They need to fly to the instance if on normal or higher.
In pvp you queue up to instances, even on rated things, not?

Let me tell you about world pvp…

They can use ground mounts.

Current world pvp is a bust.
You were 10 times better off with dedicated pvp servers.

The main point was that we could’ve been flying already, and level alts with flying.
There is 0 reason why we don’t have it yet, EXCEPT for the financial reason. If they keep flying from us until 8.2, you will need to resub if you ever want to fly. It’s another timed piece of candy.

In your opinion. Flying could mean life and death for a pvp player.

For a pve player it’s only confinience.

Which means it should only be avaible from pvp

That doesn’t really make sense. Seems you are trying to find a way to twist an argument until it fits your purpose.
You are either in or out of combat. If you’re in it, you can’t fly anyway.

Do you fly in Raids, then?

You know there are many ways to drop combat ? Specially as Druid with instant flight form ?

I say keep it as it is, but let us fly when u have pathfinder part one. And then do pathfinder part 2 for flying in the new area.

I always have had a max lvl druid on pvp servers, and trust me shadowmeld+ flightform really is a lifesaver. same with my warrior, i can get quite far away with dragon charge, 2 x intercept+ heroic leap and then mount up before the horde caught up.

He isn’t wrong with it being able to be a lifesaver in pvp, but at the same time flying also doesnt benefit wpvp. People will just fly around eachother and less fights will happen, or some random group flies at you and ganks you before you can even see them coming

Flying has never involved skill. So I really don’t see your point.
