You’d probably end up covering more ground with steed but it can be slowed.
You’re only looking at it from a PVP perspective.
In PVE both would have their use, which is why it would be a choice on the general talent tree that’s meant to be the basic making of the class.
Definitely, which is why I personally don’t think it should be an addition to any other abiliies but a choice with steed.
In Battleground Capture the Flag maps you might prefer to use Divine Steed especially if you want to run flags.
In Arenas, you might take Divine Steed in matchups where kiting is more necessary for your own survival. Match ups primarily against other melee like Windwalker Monks, Death Knights and Warriors.
Arena caster matchups would probably be Wings of Liberty.
considering the slows they have, i think that if you want to kite their burst, a teleport would be far better.
you cannot run from fists of fury with steed, for instance
also, from a pve standpoint, it has to have an useful range. so we’re probably talking 40 yards.
that’s a lot of ground to cover on your steed
