Wonderful. Now if they can just let Dracthyr also use their wings as a flying mount regularly. >.>

Right, I know they want Dragonriding to be a major feature, but Drac should have natural flight without needing a mount.

Honestly? This appeases me.

it’s definitely a nice compromise for now, but I’m going to keep pushing for removing the cooldown completely. Why have wings if you can’t rely on them?

One minute is pretty inconsequential. It’s in a better state now than when it was first introduced. We can always ask for more, sure, but sometimes, it’s worth just both taking and giving a win.

Only in the Dragon Isles though. It doesn’t apply to other world spaces.

I don’t know., Doesn’t feel like a win to me.

yeah, after reading it more closely, it really isn’t as good as I thought
 It brings us up do DR speed and with a much reduced cooldown, but there’s still serious downsides to using it over a DR mount.

I genuinely don’t get why it’s such a big deal to let Drakthyr ‘dragonride’ as themselves. It’s literally the same situation as a Worgen using Running Wild and Druids using Flight Form. It’s (almost?) purely cosmetic.

The ONLY thing I could see being an advantage over regular DR is having a smaller hitbox for collision with the terrain, and the only place that’s ever going to matter in a competitive/completion sense is maybe a dragon race or two.

Thats kinda my thought too.

though I think I’d be most content if they just let Dracthyr use the wings as a flying mount in other world zones. The Dragonriding is neat but its probably just going to be a gimick for DF and I don’t feel thats a good place for a “racial” flight concept.

I do wish Drakonids were added.

which boots are those? :hushed:

Initiate Necromancer’s boots

From the Maldraxxus cosmetic armor they introduced in 9.1. Can’t remember which version, though.

I got into the beta over the weekend and have spent the past three days just experimenting with customizing a Dracthyr. I finally got what I feel is the perfect set-up between Dracthyr form and human form, and wanted to share the pictures, but I’m not trusted enough, doh!

I count 65 different customization options between the Dracthyr and human forms. 41 for the Dracthyr form and 24 for the human form. That’s minus the Body Type, though. I used Body Type 1, so there may be more or less customization options for Body Type 2. I wrote mine down to help me remember.

Wow some of you guys presented the race better than Blizzard :clap: :clap:

I think I’ve settled on an Infinite Flight inspired Dracthyr!

Meet Jeremyth the Timelord:

Something about the whole “brooding bad boy” turning a new leaf to do good really appeals to me.

Not to my tastes, but I do have to admit that this is the first one I’ve seen that looks legitimately cohesive in both forms, including the transmog.

Thanks! I also did a Bronze “redeemed” version as well!

Feel free! Imitation in the greatest form of flattery! And if you want to variate the visage a tad, I also toyed with this look which is slightly different from what I am going with:
