bring Dragonriding to the rest of the World of WarcraftBattlelord's Bloodthirsty War WyrmPureblood Fire Hawk

Good day dragonriders,

As data-miners have guessed, we are indeed working on dragonriding outside of the Dragon Isles and broadening the set of mounts that can dragonride. Our initial work on this can be seen in the Fractures in Time game files, but that feature will not be complete or featured in the live game until later in Dragonflight.

As we continue to develop the game in this way, we expect there to be many examples in the future of content that is a work-in-progress becoming visible to data-miners in test environments. We intend to announce the contents of any given patch in our official posts about that patch.

Comment by MeteorpandaThey were in that list like yesterday or the day before when l checked that same listing.

It's all mounts that share the same rigs as the drakes basically.

They should let dracthyr have a mount form like worgen do and rework Soar to be a mount.

Druid having dragonriding flying would be absolutely amazing.Comment by VivianneIt's nice to see blue-posts acknowledging the finds of dataminers, though. I don't remember seeing that often.Comment by PhrozenAshThey were in that list like yesterday or the day before when l checked that same listing.

The article very clearly states that dataminers have found a "spell" that toggles between the old school flight mode and the newer dynamic mode.Comment by DrakknfyreThe problem there is that the blood elf and draenei areas are literally on separate maps. They exist on the Outland map, not on the Kalimdor or Eastern Kingdoms maps. There's actually an entire hidden area behind that wall. If you can get to it, it tells you you're in Quel'thalas and it even has it's own 1. General - Quel'thalas chat channel. It feels like it would be a truly major renovation on a Cataclysm scale to move those continents off the one map on to the other and overwrite the land masses that exist there but are out of bounds.Comment by FroschlampiAqir drones and gryphons deserve dragonriding dynamic flight as well *swooshing wicked swarmer tentacles*Comment by PowernuggetStill not going to sub.

Until they give me the option to toggle off ALL Dragonriding features and just fly like previous expansions i won't be coming back.

And even then it will be a hard decision,probably will be on the side of meh,didn't like Dragonflight AT ALL and will wait for the next expansion.Comment by TheMightySaurusCan’t wait to dragon ride on gryphons, wyverns, and pterrordaxesComment by UnowhatThe problem there is that the blood elf and draenei areas are literally on separate maps.
