Let us fly while dead

[taurenburger]

This would be such a QoL change. I vote for yes!... If I could vote.

[Alenarien]

So wait.. Dying is a bad thing? Damnit!

Certainly wasn't for several expansions prior to MoP. If they're in favour of such an inconvenient change then I don't see why they make such a fuss about other things a good share of people wouldn't like, such as removing flying.

I concur. There has been points in my time playing this game, where I had to take a rez sickness cause I couldn't get to my body, or it would take a 15 mins just to figure out how to get the hell back.

You can also ress at the spirit: Problem solved!

Yeah, really. Also it's not like you kill yourself in random unreachable areas all the time(if you do, well...), so I don't see a problem in the first place...

[Charge me Doctor]

Shit happens. Death should be punished. Even death like this.

and even if it is not related, i remember someone invited me into camping enemy-rare-monkey-campers, so they die near it and can't resurrect normally, so they bring in their friends and we have some kind of world pvp

[Baracuda]

Or let us fly where people can fly on fly mounts, like everywhere, except for draenei and blood elf starting zones.

Newsflash, they removed flying from 85 to 89
There's also quite a big difference between not flying at all and not flying while you are dead.

Walking to your corpse isn't an inconvenience, it's a punishment because dying is bad.
They've already made a blue-post about it where they stated that those 1 in 1000 deaths that can't be reached on foot is worth it.

MMORPG's tend to feel lame and hollow when there is no risk involved.
You just have to consider yourself lucky for not losing experience or gear when you die.

I have to agree with this. If there is no annoyance and risk to it, then you don't really have a reason to go that extra mile to avoid death in-game.

If you aren't ranting at Blizzard, don't address your post to Blizzard...."Let us fly while dead Blizzard."

The fact you guys believe blizzard doesn't view fan sites is the best part of this thread

[Tommo]

This is an outrage! Blizzard are aweful people for not letting us fly everywhere. Infact I think that when we spirit ress, we should be granted extra gold and and experience boost!

[SherbertLand]

This obviously isn't Blizzard. You'll do better to post where it is Blizzard.

Oh really? What a surprise!

I also would like to fly while dead.

You're okay with being stuck on a branch while dead because you can't fly to your body?

[pimpeddakota]

I agree completely. Death sucks on its own. No need to make it ten times less bearable.

Except in that case you zone into MOP naked...die right off the bat...then fly over to the zone with the city in at and rez at the GY in that zone.

Just one reason some zones in some areas allow flying in a restricted enviroment

[Linkedblade]

Well your better off this way. Imagine if you could fly and you found a place to res. Chances are that when you rez your character would shift and you would fall to your death again.

[Zogarth]

Way to solve problem: Don't die!
In this case it happened by accident because of your cat. Way to solve problem: Stop having your cat walk on your keyboard!
If everything fails: Ress at Spirit Healer!

[eErike]

Does it really hurt people so badly to take a spirit ress once in a blue moon?

[SherbertLand]

I would rather have a chance to be alive than to just not have one. You're not proposing an alternative, you just don't want the Quality of life change.

People seem to ignore my posts regarding these matters.

It's about set precedents.

Blizzard set a precedent in the past two expansions for much faster corpse runs. Going back on that really feels crappy.

[mvallas]

May I be the first to quickly derail this thread to point out that, only in the gaming world, will you find somebody asking the community to be able to fly while dead. :P

...We now return you to your regularly scheduled postings...

[killidan]

So 0.1% of the time you die in an inaccessible place so we have to make dead fly for the remaining 99.9% of the time as well?

Why not just say I'm fucking lazy as I joined in <insert casual expansion name> and I don't wanna corpse run, I just want easy rez?

[Tommo]

Just spirit ress? Its what its there for. Wanna know what im not okay with? The pisspoor direction this game and its playerbase have herded themselves into, every little inconvenience is cause for nerfs or buffs or change. Why dont Blizzard just play the game for us. Least then we wouldnt complain about it being too hard -_-

Btw the average player probably doesnt even know what a spirit angel does, I mean how many times do you actually have to spirit ress. Nowadays? None.
