At the very least let us make a set a few to one or the other. The new system just feels bad.
Also, flying on things without wings feels horrible. Not sure why but the new mechanic doesn’t look or feel right at all on something without wings.
OMG the drama and exaggeration.
Doesn’t seem like so since they even figured DR into quests.
Flying isn’t overpowered. That’s like saying taking a flight irl is overpowered compared to taking a train. Find a better argument. All of your’s are stale.

Because two days ago all I had to do was switch mounts, which took 1.5 seconds.
Now I have to spend 5 seconds swapping, and then another 5 seconds swapping back . . . all because there’s a mining node on a small ledge.

If it wasn’t clear I meant static flying. Yes, really the entire point of creating dragonriding was so that it can be better incorporated in the game. In ways that static flying never could.
Which is why static flying needs to be deleted. Out with the old and in with the new.
Flying isn’t overpowered.
The most efficient way to do ANYTHING in wow is to constantly be getting on and off your static flying mount.
Sorry but that’s booty cheeks.
You could also just get good.
But apparently you need an “easy mode” version of flying to get your crafting materials.
You can do the wqs on static flying too.
You’ll live.

So you want to swap to exploit the advantages of each mode but without any roadblocks.
Now I’m more in favor of the button having a 5 second cast timer.
In fact after your explanation I think it needs to be increased to 10 seconds and have a 15 minute cooldown.

That’s the worst idea i’ve heard in a while. Loads of people use static flying because it’s easier if you have arthritis or nerve damage in your hands from say…Carpel tunnel after years of gaming. Or maybe they get motion sick or just don’t like the dragon riding. Just because YOU don’t like something doesn’t mean they should get rid of it.

You couldn’t on release, they added that late into the expansion. Because they don’t want casual players static flying.
If a casual or new WoW player was ever exposed to static flying I think they would throw up and uninstall/refund this game. That’s how bad/ugly the gameplay of static flying is.
Yeah you have an opinion. Noted, have some cheese.
Killing real flight kills WoW for me and alot of other people. DR hurts me and no game is worth real life pain. Why can’t you all enjoy getting everywhere faster and let us enjoy going slow.?
But oh noes, I have to wait 5 seconds to switch, so they should just get rid of Steady Flight…
On the otherhand, if I ever buy TWW and its successors, the 5 seconds won’t impact me since I will never switch.

I actually agree with this. I enjoy sky riding but Dragonflight launch just wasn’t as fun or hype as the other expansions. I barely saw anyone besides flies zipping above my head. I miss the massive crowds and world PvP ON THE GROUND.

I’m not saying they should get rid of it because I don’t like it…
I’m saying they should get rid of it because it’s impossible to design zones when static flying exists.

Yes with pathfinder. Which is also in the next expac.
Hasn’t happened yet. But this seems like an exaggeration like
And we’re saying that getting rid of it would ruin the game for people who can’t/don’t want to use DR. a little accessibility in games never hurt anyone, while forcing dragon riding on EVERYONE is going to ruin the game if you have wrist problems, nerve damage, get motion sick, or have arthritis.
Very common things to have especially in older mouse and keyboard folk. It’s why those gel mouse pads are so popular.

No…if you do not like it then don’t use it and mind your own business. God you are so all knowing it is amazing.

Why? The short answer is: Because they’re out of touch with the players.
They really need to let me assign it per mount.
I’d also say make the toggle ability instant. Give it a 5 second cooldown instead if for some reason you don’t want people rapidly switching(which I don’t think is an issue, but apparently somebody does).
Hasn’t happened yet. But this seems like an exaggeration like
I mean it happened to me during BFA. I wasn’t subscribed, and I checked out a stream to see the gameplay. And what I saw was just a guy skipping from mob to mob with static flight. I couldn’t even see the ground or appreciate the zone.
I personally think those kinds of impressions matter a lot.
Yes with pathfinder. Which is also in the next expac.

They they should get better designers…I have been hearing about how flight ruins the game since BC and I and frankly tired of it.
In any case, that argument is dead since DF gave (dragon) flying at the start and so will all future expansions. You having flying from day one and can avoid any encounter you do not wish to engage with at any time. From a design perspective, they are the same, one is just a bigger pain in the backside (and forearm) than the other.
Have never heard a coherent argument why one flight style is better gaming than the other. It is a matter of preference, I will never use skyriding for any purpose, I would rather not play.
