"Suffer through the entire expansion's content with dragonriding then, and only then, will we award you with regular flying"

Yes, it's nonsense. Ff this I rather just have a dragon ride than a boring grind. Blizzard's old nonsensical thinking is back? Hey Mr. Microsoft pls tell them not like that then!

So, no difference to all the other Expansions, then.

Dragonriding has to be one of the best things added to WoW since TBC original flying, its just not going to be the same with original flying when  you can fly your dragon so much faster, regular flying will be good for afk'ing i guess

Yeah I like dragon riding because it is faster compared to regular flying. The only good thing about regular flying, is if you are a herbalist or miner.

I can't mine while mounted so I think dragonriding is better than regular flying.

Just add dragon riding to all the other Mount styles. I want to dragon ride the mounts that I have grinded for. Everyone is just flying around on the same 5 dragons with different skins. I miss seeing all the variations of peoples mounts.

personally i like the old flying more. Yes its much slower but personally i hate it when i have to manage my vigor everytime i want to fly somewhere and have to wait about a minute to fly again if i *filtered* it up.

I mean I agree regular flying should've been a requirement from the start but i like Dragonriding and i hope they expand on it. maybe even different new riding types. Spider's can climb walls/mountains, frog's leap very high with no fall damage, horses can go faster and stun mobs. Alot more can be done too.

Wait Wut It's Official They won't force us to crank Renown 15 on a pile of Things?

Okay, for once I'm actually happy dancing at an official announcement post.

Yes.  This, I want this.

I also want the druid Flightform class mount (which is that my bird-self can bear a passenger) to dragon-zoom, but I probably need to win the lotto and visit Irvine with a donation to get that.

Forgot about that, only herbers can herb while mounted on certain mounts or a druid.

If you max out points in the right section of the (mining / herbing) profession point trees, they say that they give you the ability to (mine / herb) while mounted.

Still doesn't help with those flowers in midair though !
