Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

I’m really hoping one of those icons is for an actual flying form.

I’d like a Dracthyr version of Running Wild with the 310% flying outside of the Dragon Isles.

My people, the day will come, when the very forests of MMO-Champion will whisper the name, Evoker.

For the record, I posted this exactly right before this image came out.

Looking at them, I think there's one of three that could potentially be a flying thing.

Top row, left most (looks like its bound to F?), looks like a dragon/dracthyr soaring upward. There's S-5, open wing on an open sky. And there's the one bound to - which looks like the back of a dracthyr (to me anyway) against an open sky.

They seem to have the four dragonflying mounts, set to s-9, s-0, s-- and both 8/0 (saame icon on both).

Really? I'm not sure why but I was under the impression it got changed into something else then everyone fled? I'm terrible with social media platforms so you'll have to excuse my ignorance... I still think it's an odd place for a WoW screenshot

There's Facebook, the company, which is now rebranded as 'Metaverse' and there is Facebook, the SM site, that has almost 3 billion active users world wide.
Facebook isn't going anywhere anytime soon, a leak there is no different than a leak on here, reddit, 4chan or twitter.

I’m guessing that the one bound to - is the Dracthyr’s glide. Icon looks very similar to the DH glide.

F (or =) could be flying (though it could just be the Dragon Isles ‘dragon riding’ form of flying and not the 310% flight)
Thinking that S-5 or S-8 could be deep breath and/or Soar.

[Cheezits]

I don't think there will be a Dracthyr running wild at launch: because people will complain if they can fly with wings in EK/Kalimdor, then suddenly lose the ability to fly in a few weeks.

Maybe they will add it when default flying is added to Dragonflight?

Could be. Just looking at the action bar he has two abilities that look greyed out.

He's not in combat so I would assume they might be non-combat Dracthyr form only abilities.

Why would they have glide on the bar? Does anyone actually put the DH glide on the bar?

Seriously asking.

If that screenshot is real then the new UI is really clean and nice! The buttons below the bags might need a bit more contrast though, or it might be hard for some to see what button opens what menu. Personaly I might also want a smal border around the bag slots and the buttons, but that maight just be me.

[Unholypriest]

Is that bag not the extra bag you get for attaching a authenticator?..

Edit: oooh nvm, those are just 4 slots or so

My Bet is a extra bagslot for professions? like those profession bags that exist and nobody uses

[MightyWarrior]

You just get extra bag slot spaces in your main bag, not an extra bag.

[Xofoo]

isn't that just 4 extra slots in the standard backpack?

[Kiivar86]

You get an extra row in your main bag, not a whole bag slot.

It looks like that character was just created. DH start with Glide on their bars.

Interesting, thanks for the info - I was indeed thinking it got rebranded to Metaverse but good to know it's still around!

Valdrakken is the main city, not their starter zone island, so maybe not. They also have a lot of mounts on there.

That's probably where Alpha characters start.

Chances are, the intro zone is NYI. Also, the only mounts on there are Dragon Riding mounts, once again, probably automatically given upon customer creation.

I think that deep breath thing may also be buttons 7 or 9, as the rocks/cratered effect from the gameplay video look similar to that of the icons (previously used for Earthen Spike for Enhancement if i'm not mistaken).

Very early days regardless for icons, but neat to see them here!

Yeah they already got all of their four drake mounts so it must be quite into the leveling process already? Honestly it feels a bit weird knowing that streamers already get access while we didn't even have datamining yet. Gnarf, just show me the dragonriding customizations!

It's also in an extra action bar. While I guess I can't say for sure with the new UI, abilities don't auto fill those.
