Why we need more travel options in SL

I’m in one part of Bastion, heading to another. Because there are so few flight points and no flight whistle, it was actually quicker to port to Dalaran, then to Orgrimmar, then to Oribos, they take a fp to where I wanted to be than get there by navigating Bastion.

Frankly, a Dalaran hearthstone from Legion is just about the most important item you can have for world content in Shadowlands.

You can get a one way portal to Oribos in your Covenant Sanctum.

Well, I suppose Bastion > Sinfall > Oribos > Bastion WOULD be quicker…

Just ride of those darn mobile druids. Some naughty ones cheetah glyph themselves though. :confused:

Too late for a flight whistle and we’ll have flight in roughly 6mos anyway. Be more concerned with how our flight will be restricted to inner-zones only and why we’ll have to still use taxis for the in-between.

this , we will still forced to take flying path from oribos

I would really like it if they’d put a portal to-and-back from your covenant and oribos. I’m still scared to ride through oribos after getting dropped into the abyss and ending up dead in westfall.

The first content patch is 6 months away? Oh man :frowning: I don’t know why but I though maybe a couple of months or 3 months max ><

No, the content update is likely sooner, but flight will undoubtedly be locked behind timegated renown level, so I’m adding a few weeks after patch drops, before we actually have flight.

In other words you are SPOILED by all the magic options in the game…so you want the game to SPOIL you even more!

I just want bastion to stop being a giant flashbang.

Yup. That’s why the initial flight paths don’t cost money. They’ve already set it up to work this way.

I’m calling some serious shenanigans on this one.

I think you mean months after the patch drops :frowning:

I’m ready for “only 40 more renown levels you can unlock flying!!!”

laughs in necrolord mage.

Honestly I just want them to give us a SL version of the damned flight whistle. In Bastion and especially the Z-axis sadism that is Revendreth, I find myself frequently using the “hearth -> Oribos -> flight back to the zone I was in” loop just because the terrain is so frustratingly annoying to navigate.

I’ve never wanted flight so early and so badly in an expansion. It’s like the guy designing Bastion and Revendreth turned to the guy who created Nazjatar and was like, “lol nice labyrinthine zone layout bro, now hold my beer.”

You’re silly if you think 9.1 is 6 months away.

It feels just as bad as when I started playing again when Naz was out, and every person was zooming around flying while I was grounded for a good month+.

Again, not what I meant. I said flight in 6mos, altho I guess 5 would be better guess. Patch less than that, but time gated renown until we unlock flight…

How does one unlock that?
