And overall it sounds great on paper, but in reality it feels bad. I've tested everything by myself, I've leveled 4 characters, I've tried different approaches on every character and, you know what, currently I don't have any desire to resub right now. 9.1 is 50/50. Yeah, it brings flying. But if flying will be gated behind even more Renown levels (and it will be), then I'll wait for catch-up first. And 9.2 won't be far away then. If it will finally fix things, then may be it will be better to just wait for it.
