Comment by Blackboy0 Alright, to be perfectly honest, I hate the new Flying Vehicle System. I dunno why, it's just not for me. Maybe its my Computer... I just don't like it.\r
\r
The first time I flew was in Howling Fjord, the Steel Gate. I had to shoot down some guys & collect 3 things and place them ontop of a crane. The thing was... I had NO idea how to turn and stop and everything lol. Whenever I would press the button to stop, I would turn left or something. I'm thinking it was my keyboard...\r
\r
But that was my first experience with Flying machines, and now I ain't too crazy to get back into them (I died like 7 times...)\r
\r
Btw, incredible post you have :D Comment by matildia this looks so COOL! cant wait to try this fight. Comment by blah17 Alright, to be perfectly honest, I hate the new Flying Vehicle System. I dunno why, it's just not for me. Maybe its my Computer... I just don't like it.\r

That quest was actualy bugged, dont judge flying based on that experiance! = ) Comment by tarkhan Do the quest to defend Wyrmrest Temple in Dragonblight if you want to see flying vehicles in action. That plane in Fjord was horribly buggy, and unresponsive. Comment by Zetrix Really nice write-up :) Can't wait to try this encounter, as I love the whole dragon story. Thanks for telling about the daily, would really get handy :) Comment by Blackboy0 Alright, to be perfectly honest, I hate the new Flying Vehicle System. I dunno why, it's just not for me.

Oh... it was? Aight... That changes things :P Comment by parrazell Man just wait until you get to Storm Peaks and get the quest to kill dragon riders in flight, jumping from flying dragon to flying dragon. tis pure awesome Comment by lichi Vehicles are clunky. The whole thing was designed to be a "feature" without any actual need for it. Many people don't like the whole experience. I was wishing it would just be used for some dailies for unemployed housewives to do every morning but they actually have in in raids and it's unfun. Comment by MrDuck Well, first when i've met some serious drake flying in oculus and such, i didn't really like it, but now after a few malygos kills, and a few hours working on oculus achievements, i think i got the hang on it, and really, it's not fun and such when you don't know exactly what to do,as it usually means fast death for the drake, faster than for you as rogue on sapphiron just pressing these few buttons and running to hide every now and then. \r
\r
When you don't know it, it really fails, however once it's all learned and people do things properly, i think it's really fun and epic to do such encounters. Comment by Teddiursa Man just wait until you get to Storm Peaks and get the quest to kill dragon riders in flight, jumping from flying dragon to flying dragon. tis pure awesome\r

Agreed, I loved this quest, and the whole chain it was involved in. The quest mentioned here is The Drakkensryd. Comment by TheFunk My biggest issue with this fight is being forced to use the crappy bliz UI to see who's taking damage\/needs heals. I REALLY wish grid would work for that phase...my response time and ability to triage healing effectively would instantly doubly, at least.

Just tell Grid to show pets (Raid -> Raid Layout -> By Group 25 w\/ Pets) . The dragon 'vehicles' show up as pets and can be targeted and healed if necessary if you aren't just AoE spamming.

That quest wasn't bugged, in my opinion. Its practically impossible for an airplane to just 'stop' and hover in mid-air, it makes sense that it just keeps going forward until it hits something or turns - whereas it makes perfect sense that a dragon, with moving wings, has no issues stopping mid-air and hovering.

Harrier jump jet?\r
\r
Also, I think a game where cows fly on dragons spitting fire needn't pay too much attention to realism. Comment by Veltorak This is a tough fight. There is a learning curve needed when you reach the part with the dragons. Don't expect to get this on your first try at Malygos, but it may be possible. My guild had no problem whatsoever with Naxx but this guy owned us. Comment by FritzTheCat \r

Killed additional quotes to alleviate spam. Blizzard does try to maintain a slight semblance of artistic integrity - In short, a plane that looks like a slapped-together crop duster made of hammered out garbage cans and tin foil on your screen very sensibly does not behave like a jump jet. Comment by RomanokeTiger For phase 3 we like to group up on one spot that way the AOE healing works better. When Malygos does his aoe attack, everyone just moves to the right to avoid it. Works pretty good. Comment by Illiona Is it even worth it to grab any arcane resist gear? Comment by Hungryshadow You cannot use anything other than instant cast spells in a Vortex, and you take a large amount of damage over time (as well as fall damage), so instant healing over time spells are essential, as well as having a decent amount of health.\r
I don't know why so many people says this, but it's simply untrue. As a Hunter (don't know about other classes), I can still cast my Steady Shots as per usual just fine while in a Vortex. Comment by Hungryshadow Is it even worth it to grab any arcane resist gear?\r
\r
No, because you need maximum efficiency from your raid members in order to go into Phase 3 with well enough time left to kill him before the enrage timer. Unless your DPS vastly outgears the content (25 Man Malygos geared DPS doing 10 Man Malygos, maybe), but then, your healers should also have gear up-to-par to make healing raid damage look effortless.
