Because, by the sounds of it, you can completely customise the forms independantly from each other.
I mean, in the end, they don’t seem to be part of one flight (being able to use all the flight’s abilities)
Yeah, they were talking about it. You can do what you like in essence.
I prefer uniformity.
I’m going to make a black dragon type and use earth looking shaman sets… Maybe.
You know I’ll make more than one.

ARMOUR
ON THE DRAGON FORMS

^ This.
If I can’t wear armour on my Barny form, then what was the point of it?
Let’s just hope we can.

This is what I’ve said many times.
If you don’t have it, they need to give a lot of little jewellery.
It looks like you can wear a tabard at the moment but, not sure.
I missed it (too busy Pvping) but what armour type are these dragons wearing?
I know they said it wasn’t going to be leather but otherwise missed it.
Mail, my dear. Mail.
The mythic or Horde pvp version of the Nighthold shaman set would look awesome on a black dragon.

They also didn’t seem to show any weapons in hand that I noticed, but presumably they have something in their weapon item slots…?
It’ll be really weird if the gear+transmog is for humanoid form only. I guess you see similar with druids and their animal forms so it’s not ‘unheard of’, but dragon form isn’t really just a combat thing, it’s…what they are, right? It’d be like if Worgen didn’t show any gear in their worgen form, only human form.

If it shows up on their dragon form.
Don’t Give the Furries Ideas, Elenthas!
Could work on the humanoid form.
Also, does it say you can choose which you use in combat? Because that may be their cheap way of not having armour on them.
If dracthyr are flying around the dragon isles themselves instead of riding dragons, I’d hope that they would have extensive dragon form customisation options too, to mirror that of the ridable dragons people are getting.

It could’ve been a lot worse.
- The relative lack of features is probably due to the marketing team realising how much of a dirty word “borrowed power” is, to the point where they’ve excluded anything that could resemble a borrowed power system from the list of expansion features.
- I agree with the opinion that the Dracthyr look dumb and out of place, but their lore (from what we know) is less absurd than that of multiple allied races, such as the Void Elves or Mag’har Orcs. We’ll have to see just how good or bad it is.
- They’re bold to try the neutral race experiment again, and even bolder to restrict this new class to this new race. It’s a gamble and I have no idea if it’s going to pay off. They must have a lot of faith in the dragon theme drawing a lot of players to the class.
- The flavour and lore of the cinematic is perfectly acceptable. It’s nice to actually be going back to the established Titanic creations, rather than the First Ones or another case of Titans-But-Better. This seems like a return to Azeroth, which is what we were all asking for, yet it remains to be seen how they will manage the damage done by the Shadowlands expansion.
- It’s good that crafting will become more engaging and complicated than “collect reagents, make thing.” However, this is meaningless and irrelevant unless it can be used to produce meaningful end-game items or the end-game of WoW is completely restructured.
- Dragonriding looks like a direct clone of riding the Griffon and the Skyscale from Guild Wars 2. This is fantastic news, because that game has the best mounted movement in any MMORPG ever. However, consider the fact that WoW has had flying as unrestricted movement in three dimensions for a decade and a half now. Compared to the convenience of that sort of “flying,” dragonriding could be seen as an annoying gimmick that makes travel harder than it has to be.
It would be wrong of me to 
all over this expansion. There’s promise in most of what I’ve seen, potential that Blizzard could possibly deliver on. Their pitch could be turned into a good World of Warcraft experience, with some effort.
The thing is, some of us need a little more than promise and potential. If I come back to this game, it will be several months after the release of 10.0, once I am certain that this time, the expansion isn’t going to be a poorly disguised garbage fire.
Pre-ordering just doesn’t seem smart these days.

Yeah but an Azeroth where I can’t run around as a Big, smelly Ogre, Throwing Child RPers out of windows is not a world I want to be in.
The perfect summary of my feelings.
With alpha staring “soon” I’m hoping things get a little clearer in the coming period of time which I won’t specify for sanity.
No, please let us have one nice thing.
I was looking at the humanoid models and noticed something. They all have different under clothes on. Both genders have it.
Some are wearing pants, others boxers.
Damn, you could wash your clothes on those abs.
They did. Its why some are wearing their tops.
