Summary
Dragonriding is coming to oldWorld of Warcraftzones soon, along with some new ways for Dracthyr, Druids, and other players to take to the skies. These awesome changes will roll out in the patches leading up to, and in, the nextWorld of Warcraftexpansion,The War Within.
Dragonflightintroducedtons of new systems toWorld of Warcraft, including an updated UI, talent trees, and other quality of life features. However, among all of these new systems, Dragonriding, the new dynamic flying system, has been one of its most popular.
ThoughWorld of Warcrafthad already confirmed Dragonriding was comingto old world zones, BlizzCon surprised players with how soon it would be arriving. Dynamic Flying, the new setting-agnostic name for Dragonriding, is coming to all flight-enabled zones inWorld of Warcraftin Patch 10.2.5. Karazaa, a senior gameplay software engineer onWorld of Warcraftwho does a lot of work on Dragonriding and Dynamic Flying, also confirmed on his personal Twitter that other exciting features would be coming in Patch 10.2.5 andThe War Within, including full Dracthyr Dynamic Flying and more Dragonriding mount options.
Dragonriding traits will still be required to unlock the full potential of Dynamic Flying mounts. ConsideringDragonflightwill become the new default leveling experience from level 10-70 inThe War Within, players will likely still have to collectall the glyphs in the Dragon Isles zonesto learn these abilities. Luckily, after players do this once, subsequent characters will have access to all the traits immediately.
Fans are understandably ecstatic to see this feature finally coming to the rest of the game. Dynamic Flying in the old world viaWorld of Warcraft’s Dragonriding Race eventshas been a blast, so players are thrilled to see the system fully implemented so soon. Come next year, flying inWorld of Warcraftwill never be the same again.
