What is “evergreen”?
Sometimes Blizzard inserts technical talk, I think? They did the same with the War Within patch notes explaining druid healing and using the term “splash cap” which I don’t know the meaning of that one either.

Something that is designed as an ongoing effect or ability and not just a borrowed power like azerite or SL lego armor that gave abilities.
Splash cap is it will hit a target and trickle to other close by targets. But has a maximum lije 3 or 5 additional targets.

Ya, I will never use classic flying ever again, but not sure why blizzard is punishing those that do use it. Pretty weird imo. Just let us use either interchangeably with a .1 second click of an extra action button, don’t see why that has any issue.

You know, after going to real life war when I was 19 years old back in operation desert storm, I am sure as heck not afraid of anything a gaming company would do to a stupid game I play online for only fun. If in life you fear choices made by gaming companies in games. I really feel sorry for you. There is a lot more in the world that one should be aware of and fearful of than stupid video games and what goes on with them and in them.

Be very afraid of the BlizZard rug pull.
They will strike hard and fast before you know it.

I hate the skygliding minigame and am in the process of removing all the ugly flappy mounts from my hotbars.

I can’t stand the flapping sound from any of the mounts with wings that make that noise …it drives me nuts…I have a serve case of Tinnitus in both ears…and certain sounds just make it worse for me…Tinnitus is what can happen when you spend years being a metal riveter while building military jets even though I wore double hearing protection…noise still gets though…

It is like a virus I can’t get rid of.

This is such a terrible change. 5 seconds to swap between flight forms feels so bad. You should be able to pick Skyriding or Steady for each mount or at least for a small group of mounts. If that isn’t an option, then the swap should be instant, castable while mounted with a CD and off the GCD so you can put it in macros (for druid flight form type things).

Nope you shouldn’t be able to cheese the loss of vigor while flying on a Skyriding mount and switch while falling to a TBC mount to escape hitting the ground to keep on flying without penalty. Either learn how to Skyride and manage the system of controlling the vigor spent and gained to remain aloft, or land and swap to a TBC mode and fly that way once it is unlocked. If they choose to have a timer to switch it or not, one shouldn’t be able to so it while still flying period. Be on the ground to do it.

Ngl I kinda wish Blizz would get to a point where they are done messing with flying. It seems like every expansion they have to change it or make some kinda stance on why we shouldnt have it.
Its a core mechanic at this point stop messing with it. Just get it done and lets move on and stop wasting development time and communications on future alterations.
I really really really hope this is the final iteration of flying.

Does that white bird thing come in black? I have to get myself an “Ubar of the Skies”!
I have no issues Skyriding, so check your “learn to” attitude and cheesing vigor never crossed my mind. I would be fine with requiring you to be on the ground to swap styles, but I still think it should be instant and off the GCD. The 5 second cast time to swap back and forth feels like a downgrade when you can just swap mounts currently.

Yes but that is more than exactly why they want it this way, and people should be able to figure that out on their own, and stop with this I want I want I want and acting like they have not thought about it when I bet money most have thought about it. Because most people who play WoW, if they think of a way to cheese something they will in a heart beat for as long as Blizzard lets them.
Limiting choice like this with a 5 second cast time to switch makes no sense unless the goal is to hinder players.
Let me pick if I want a mount to skyride or normal fly at will, or with a macro.

How are we just going to swap mounts like we can now when most of those very mounts will be able to skyride in the expansion? There has to be some kind of toggle. I must be missing something.
in the TWW there is a toggle, with a 5 second cast timer. That effectively turns mounts that are capable of changing from Dynamic flight style to TBC style of flight mode. And I believe they said they have made it so that like 400 some TBC style flying mounts are now able to be Dynamic flying mounts.
Dracthyr static riding has a ten second cooldown, why? There is no advantage to the mount, it’s not like it’s instant.
It is to hinder the player base esp when its dealing with TBC normal flight, its just another arbitrary control aka pathfinder forced on the player base.

Lots of us with motor control disabilities (TBI) going to be looking for a carry on this deal. Blizzard just created the “money for carry gold mine” and has no idea they just did it. If it were phased (DragRide masters get it off the bat, the rest of us catch up as we can) it would make a lot more sense. But for the same player base that went full psycho nuts over the myth owl, canceling subs, pissin-n-moaning until Blizz caved and gave them the blue one, none of this is going to change or matter.
