again it is a DF themed thing
the next expansion will not be and they can call it whatever the heck they want
not asking for it now im happy with changes inc
but next expansion flying around on only dragons in a diff themed expac is nonsensical
Do you get to pick? I also want to be able to regular fly on them.

From what I read, it’s that they need to adapt the way DragonRiding functions to the mount. Dragon-esque mounts, have a skeleton and animations that are easiest to adapt. It is definitely a long work in progress but they are pushing for the easiest options for now so it lines up with the Old World cup racing idea or w/e is my guess. They’ll get more information through those events and then more mounts may follow for 11.0 is my guess.
There is a toggle for old flying and dragon riding. Or so I read.

Should be free.
Notice how they’re moving on pushing dragonriding into the old world while having nothing to report about bringing regular flight into Dragonflight content.

Where is this confirmation?
But the article is just datamined information that says “seems to be.”
To state that it’s absolutely coming in 10.1.5? Yes we do. Otherwise, people start screaming that Blizz lied to us.
There is no satisfying you people. Since the days of vanilla.
That is great news.
I miss being able to just hover in place and afk if need be.
Stop tryna stir up drama.

Cant wait to flex the time lost and phosphorous again
To be a little more specific, mounts that use the same skeletons as the DR mounts, so all the drakes and proto-drakes, things like frostwyrms, firehawks and pterrordaxes, etc. They’re apparently even tweaking the Heart of the Aspects to fit the Winding Slitherdrake build for it.
I’m not sure if it’s happening with 10.1.5 though, I believe they said it’s still being worked on. As long as they continue adding models for it though, I’m excited by the prospect. Hopefully the skeletons with the highest priority include the hippogryph, gryphon, and wind rider, fanning out to do other widely-used/popular skeletons like the birds, cloud serpents, and flying horses after.
I’m sorry but I don’t care how many mounts they add to dragon riding I still don’t like the system which is a mini game to manage while flying around and depending how many times you have to land to gather materials you might have to wait a little bit.
Also, sometimes I like to AFK, so I lift off the ground to protect myself from NPCs in the area and I just don’t like riding on the back of Dragons most of the time. Give me the option to transmog a mount over a Dragon then I might be willing to get behind more mounts mostly Dragons being added to the system.

Don’t change MY mounts, I like them just the way they are.
Maybe cause the ashes kinda shares the same flying shape as old gryphons?
The flamehawks kinda more shaped like proto drakes. Just guessing.
I know they aren’t dragons or even share a model; but it’d be really fun if they added momentum based flying to mounts like the flying carpets and the airplanes.

I feel that ideally they’d have different categories that have different abilities. Like “helicopter” type ones which have different flying patterns than dragons do, like gyrocopters and even the bee type mounts, would have abilities like “hover” instead of aerial halt, and so on. It would be interesting to decide which mount works best for you, instead of them all being exactly the same.

You know this is making me appreciate all the mounts I farmed especially dragon mounts. I know they are not NEW but in a way its gonna feel that way
Its about time, should have been done months ago imho
you can freely switch between the riggings, you can still use it in old content.
