Can we stop with this, "Flying killed WPvP"

1: Turtle had a cast time.

2: No Cd is huge.

3: If you can’t pursue your target and they get away, that’s your fault, especially with the net gun in mind. Sorry.

It was extremely short.

No it is not my fault. When they have the ability to lift off the ground out of range for me to dismount them, that is the fault of the flying mount, not myself. Sorry.

If they get that far from you and you’re trying to kill them, you’re not playing rogue correctly, or you ran away first.

Don’t blame flying for your problems, please.

Also, again, use the net gun.

warmode was already dead flying is just going to help it die more.

Booterang > everything else.

Not wrong, shame we can’t use it with the same functionality of the net gun.

So if someone is in the air and I want to kill them then I’m not playing my class correctly? Okay

Also, again, it doesn’t work if they are too far out of range.

If you attack someone as a rogue, and they somehow get 250 yards on you and fly away, yeah, you’re playing rogue wrong.

Good thing that isn’t the scenario I was laying out in how flying does ruin world pvp.

What, you can’t gank someone afking in the skybox?

Cry me a river.

Flying in world PvP has existed for 90% of this game. It didn’t kill it back in BC. There was even a boatload more on my RP server back then.

Nope. Not on my three servers or from what I heard from my friends that were on PvP servers.

All of this. ^

Exactly!

I’ve stalked people across entire zones waiting to make my move. Flying enhances the PvP experience.

I guess the corpse-campers don’t like being /laughed at as their victims mount up behind a rock and fly away.

LOL

Man if I had a dollar for every time someone used this as a rebuttal for any kind of argument involving world pvp…

I never said it killed world pvp, I just said it kind of ruined it.

If you can’t figure out how to ambush people with the net gun as a rogue, you’re just a bad rogue. Sorry, that’s just how it is.

It didn’t from my experience. CRZ and sharding did, though. Flying seemed to make it more fun and challenging for people from what I used to hear and participate in back then.

Flying really didn’t kill it. I’d just follow people on my mount far above and behind them, wait for them to touch down to collect a mining node or something, drop down on top of them and surprise attack!

It was pretty fun. I miss when WG was a relevant place to frequent.

PvE servers ruined PvP.

“who cares let them have it” mentality is a bummer. It makes me wonder why even play warmode if you are going to say things like this.
