Flying in Nazjatar and Mechagon confirmed.

Unsure why some people are suprised by this.
WoD and Legion Pathfinder enabled flying in Tanaan and Broken Shore respectively. Nazjatar and Mechagon are both outdoor zones, that's the entire point of Nazjatar being raised from the sea floor.
Argus was locked because of the design (3 seperate zones needing to create the illusion of an entire planet with background art) and part of Timeless Isle reward hunting was traversing height differentials. It was for these two zones only that flying would not be benificial.
Finally
For the first time in months he said the word "Sandbox" again.
Here is the quote from the interview:
Mechagon and Nazjatar will both be endgame experiences that draw on the best elements of previous endgame grinds: the Timeless Isle, Argus, Tanaan Jungle, and the Broken Shore. Azshara’s domain of Nazjatar will be a little more typical, while Mechagon will be “what you might expect from a gnomish paradise,” says Hazzikostas. He describes it as more sandbox-y, unpredictable, and akin to a playground. Both zones will have flying enabled.
That leak is getting more and more credibility.
I think whenever we mention "the leak" we all refer to this one: https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...ise-of-Azshara
The interview seems to imply that classes and the talent system as a whole may get revamped after BFA is done. Good, then blizz can (hopefully) make a system that doesn't have to rely on some bandaid.
