Reduced dragon riding speed in old world content

you can already click a hearthstone and warp to a specific location, would it really be that bad if that system was widened to include more locations?

You mean like portals?

ESO is about as close to that as Ive ever seen in a game. The ESO portal/hearth system is 50 times faster than wow flight.
For some reason ESO doesnt have the attituted that travel time is ‘content’, lol

You can fly from Orgrimmar to Silithus in like 2 minutes.

The flight speed is fine.

Certainly isnt an issue in ESO. lol.
You can buy player houses all over the map in addition to the vast portal system.
You can hearth to any of your houses any time…or any of the portals youve visited once.
Doesnt seem to cause any problems in that game at all and its much smaller than WoWs game world

Pretty sure it’s immersion. You know, the other thing players like to kill in the name of convenience.

No I dont like dragon riding at all and never will. if they said dragon riding was not continuing in the game tomorrow I’d be very happy.

Quick, someone photoshop Ion’s head onto Doctor Evil.

I mean even board games require you to roll the dice to move your pawn.

not every board game though… candy land required that you pick up a card and then move your piece to the next spot on the map that was the same color.

sometimes you could pick up a card that would warp you all the way to the end of the map, like a hearthstone, right?

Yeah, and then you pick the next card and it warps you back. Do you also want that?

that’s not necessarily guaranteed to happen though.

what do i want? i want blizzard to stop messing around with flying.

flying was perfect as it was implemented in TBC, then they decided to get weird about it wod and it has become this huge ordeal with pathfinder and such.

then forcing people to use dragon riding

then people get used to dragon riding

now reducing dragon riding speeds

like just stop messing with flying, leave it as is.

It was slow

Gave DR for free immediately and it was faster

What a silly thing to even think of.

The content is trivial. The zones are trivial. I got from twilight highlands to Molten Core in about 25 seconds. IMO all bat riders should move at 830% beeline through the sky or be replaced with instant ports.

Travel time is for classic servers and new expansions.

yes, exactly.

first they nerf “soar”… like i dont play a dracthyr nor a mage and the speed at which a dracthyr can travel across the old world does not affect me at all…

why did they nerf soar? because they were afraid that dracthyr would have an unfair advantage when going to tame pets in eastern kingdoms? like come on…

completely unnecessary…

No it hasn’t. It was advertised as, “You can dragnonfly in old zones” with the current patch
