    It worked super good in GW2 because flying didn’t exist before and they introduced this and it was GREAT. In WoW it’s just too late to introduce stuff like this when people are already used to it.
    I'd rather have a gameplay system that is fun to use and slightly less covenant than something that was more covenient but boring.

    Old flying is only more convenient if you alt tab, as it is much slower than Dragonriding.

    Or if you need to get somewhere high up like Hyjal. I'm pretty sure you'll never be able to get to Hyjal by Dragonriding, which calls into question using it on Kalimdor.

    It's never too late to roll back stuff that never should have been added to begin with.

    They weren't always sealed so Grimtotem could have been present pre-sundering just like all the other races. While it isn't canon the RPG material stated that Grimtotem as a name predates the founding of the clan we know. It could also be that they communicate through the elemental plane or some other medium.

    It also would have made the more more immersive and epic if you couldn't just angle your helicopter straight up to enter Hyjal and instead had to actually climb it, which in turn would have made it more satisfying to then glide all the way back down from the highest point in the game.

    It still doesn’t change the fact that they remove something just to give it back to us in a limited and restricted way. This is the main problem, not that they’re doing Dragonriding.

    It’s like their approach of radical pruning classes and then bringing stuff back in Shadowlands.

    Also I haven't it seen it mentioned but Mammoths got a very big model revamp and there are several ground mounts.

    New ground mounts include:

    Mammoths
    Lava Mammoths
    Lava Slugs
    Thunder Lizards
    Dragonflies (they walk like Water Striders)
    Primal Tallstriders
    Dragon Isles Moose (they use the new bull skeleton)
    Salamanders (they use the Warpstalker skeleton)

    They are turning something that had no gameplay attached to something with gameplay attached.

    That's a win no matter how you look at it.

    Yep there it is. Nozdormu becoming murozond > dies > trans character takes lead over bronze. So predictable.
    I will not reply to posts that are non-constructive or contain flaming and/or trolling.

    This has been the case since Wrath/Cata, lol. There was no other character to take his place except Chromie and he told you he dies.

    There was that other female dragon Soridormi but she's supposed to die in a vision and maybe by Kairoz(I assume that was planned but scrapped). Then there is the heir of Nozdormu anachronos who is Noz's heir so they could go there to. I'm not saying Blizz did it to cater to trans or whatever, who knows their reasoning.

    Do we know if Chromie is taking over or are people taking a piss?

    Because for Ysera it's her daughter that takes over.

    It feels really unfair that all the flavor and cool covenant abilities from Shadowlands are brought into Dragonflight, but some classes dont get the tools and spells from when they were peak design and fun to play.
