Well I feel like an idiot. I had no idea Pathfinder was already a thing this early on, and had only 1 area in Hallowfall left to grab to enable it.
Will make it easier for my toon to gather herbs and ore (which is the only toon I plan on turning this on for).
In the past, I thought it was a bit longer before they enabled that? /shrug No complaints as it will make gathering easier for me.
I left after Battle for Azeroth because pathfinder was a horrible rep grind.
Blizzard could have been getting my money the last 4 years if they wouldn’t have made it such a grind. You had to get 2 pathfinder back then and the 2nd half was rep grind city.
I would have been fine with pathfinder as zone exploration only. Dragon riding is nice but for some tasks steady flight is important.
I’m 
gone for good if they put flying behind a rep grind again.
It’s not behind rep grind. It’s only behind zone exploration, and completing the Main Story Line in each zone.
Dude, it’s so much easier.

I just happened to look at patch notes about “steady flight” in the Dawnbreaker dungeon, and was like “wait, we have steady flight available already”. And yes, yes we do.
