Dragon riding. Clunky and bad

You can still click a flight path and get a coffee.

Maybe learn how to maintain thrill of the skys and vigor won’t be an issue for you

Welcome to GD.

I like it and I would like to see a hover ability added to it. No movement or regen of vigor while in hover mode you just hover. It would be great for that emergency bio run or whatever without the need to find a safe landing place. JMO

If you hate the current state of the game so much then why play it?

I’ll go one better. I have some chars on the east coast…I used to live in that time zone. I am not there anyone and was trying out dragon riding on that server…the lag really really affects this flying and how smooth it works.

If vigor wasn’t an issue, then maybe I could forgive the lag a bit but man…I can’t realistically play on those servers with flying etc, and I don’t want to pay to move those chars. It’s a rough life.

It’s not like they took away flightpaths, they still have em.

It’s handy for that one spot in northern Thaldrazius where there are a couple world quests if you don’t feel like flying. Aside from that one though they are pretty useless.

As for me im relieved i can actually hover and control the mount without constant movement. And use one of my many collected mounts to fly…

Half the time it dismounts you .

Most time you got to land any way

I spend most of my time playing WRATH . Mostly I am a raid logger now never was before , Its not that there is not lots to do but its all boring stuff . Did not like farming rep now they just named it something else .

Use the flight paths if you dont like it. I had to cook some soup so I took the flight path and got a cup of coffee during the flight instead of dragon riding down.

Dragon riding. Fast and good.

Your preconceptions of dragons are strange. Also the dragon riding mounts are more like dragonkin, except for the drake. But really, throwing haterade because it doesn’t bite or do anything other than fly is ridiculous. Especially since you’d probably be on here whining if you died via someone elses DR mount toasting or chomping you. Be careful what you wish for.

It’s bad for you. It’s absolutely amazing for a lot of other people.

You are speaking for yourself.

I love dragon riding, and it’s easily in my top 5 favorite new features in dragonflight.

If it sucks for you, fine. But why try to ruin it for everyone else?

Meanwhile me yeeting from the city to Walrus Camp to slide in on the feast with only 3 minutes left with gotta go fast blaring in my headphones

OH NO! I can’t AFK while hovering!!!

I play gatherers, and even with all of the glyphs and the gatherer perk, I do run into vigor issues. Not much, but enough that I can’t stop for every node. They are too close together. When every gatherer is ignoring the basic ones because we run out of vigor, it’s…annoying. I can fly the entire zone and only find severite nodes because everyone ignores them.

Personally I prefer the increased control of OG flight to the interaction of dragon riding, but that is my preference. The only solution that really makes sense is to, eventually, make both versions fully available. Then everyone picks the mode they like, or the one that works best for a given solution, and maybe 99% of us can be happy? (Yes, there are some people who will ALWAYS be unhappy about something.)
