I have to confess: I was wrong. When Dragon Riding was this big new feature for this expansion, I was very sceptical because I didn't want my favorite mounts to be obsolete and I certainly didn't believe Blizz would go back and update all those hundreds of old mounts. Turns out, I was wrong.
I also used to think there was no way those running in the sky mounts and other weird shaped mounts would be added to dynamic flight and like you said, we were proved wrong, blizzard’s hard work paid off
The rocket losing it's propulsion flame and still flying gives me some serious WH40k 'Waagh energy' vibes. the rocket flies on the hopes and dreams of the pilot believing it can still fly to their destination. How does that work? Better not question it because it just does.
If anyone's interested in the hammer, it was originally very rare because it was a drop from Gruul's Lair. I always wanted it because Maraad (the original tBC cinematic draenei) had it. So I farmed Gruul's Lair for a bit to finally get it. And then they added it as one of the standard weapons for boosted characters. 🤣
11:10 what you can do with zen flight is mount any dragonriding mount in the air while falling with out interrupting the mount cast so you can mount up b 4 hitting the groun. AS LONG AS YOU ARE NOT IN COMBAT.
From day one I said that alot of people will love it and I was right. I was always preaching for this kind of flying to come to the game ever since i played Guild Wars 2 and im so glad that it now comes to ALL flying mounts. ONE of the best features in this game. Love it.
The new cast to choose between the two is frustrating for druids tho. Was awesome to be able to dismount when running out of vagor and instantly cast BC flight mode and carry on flying. Seems this isn't the case anymore
If you're playing a game and it literally makes you say 'WEEEEEE' and 'YEH THIS IS AWESOME!' they're doing something right :D looking forward to using my other mounts when this expansion drops! I've missed my babies
I almost with the disks had the player use like, surfboard or longboard style animations if youre diving for example, you put your hands behind your back and learn down
I was just going to take a look at this and watched the whole thing. So I'm going to have to check out Flying Machine, and gosh I really want my Elderhorn to fly
@@myrojyn I'm sorry to hear that.☹️ I would tell you how and when I got but I dislike rubbing stuff like that in peoples faces. My longest farm was the Raven mount. Took 10 years to bag that one.
I like dynamic flying but I didn't think it was a good enough mechanic to completely replace normal flying like the fact you can run out of energy and just have to sit there waiting for it to replenish isn't very much fun
After you get all your dragonflight talents, you never have to wait to refill it, it recharges so fast, you just need to keep momentum to keep recharging your vigors
Oi mighty @Nobbel87, one small request, could you disable those wind streaks that surround you when you gain "Thrill of the Skies". They just make me (and surely there are others) feel sick and nauseous, to disable them, go to Options -> Mounts -> Disable Dynamic Flight Speed Effects. Thank you.
@@warbosspapasmurf "900 mounts" includes ground mounts which obviously won't have dynamic flying ^^ there's probably less then a dozen flying mounts that won't get dynamic flying
Hey Nobbel, how do you have the fully upgraded dynamic flight currently? I've been trying to figure out where/how to get it on TWW alpha but I've been on a wild goose chase so far. Edit: Nevermind! I asked around and found out that I needed to talk to Lithragosa over at The Waking Shores to pull up the upgrade panel.
Yes this is a good start but can we fight each other mid air, that would sick! Mages and warlocks hurling spells at each other while flying dragons and winged beasts.
If Blizz ever wants to take a crack at mounted/flying combat again. They tried to push it hard in WoTLk and it was so clunky and not fun. (The Nexus dungeon and that one raid as well.) Personally would probably make things a bit too complicated and unfair for those who are mounted to others who haven't been able to mount up. Especially due to not being able to mount up while in combat.
@@ianhorne9594 or the actual net-o-matic designed to dismount them as well, but the whole point of that item is to make you and your opponent stuck to the ground.
i hated dynamic flight....i liked setting my autorun on in flight somewhere and going to make coffee lol....i know i can use taxi mounts but im cheap lolz
Ground mounts should totally be able to fly at appropriate level. We inhabit a land of magic and they're telling me mages can't wave a wand and make a wolf/horse/turtle fly?
You can get normal/classic type of flying for the Dragon Isles if you get the Pathfinder achievement. (I think that's getting all FP's and possibly discovering all the zones.) As a heads up. And as far as I'm aware this new dynamic flying is optional and you can toggle it on and off.

The fact that the dru flightform is still instant cast is very op for WPVP. Even dracthyr's Soar ability still has a mount summon time
It has always been instant flying. What difference does it make for wpvp if its instant dynamic as well?
@@NiekVL and it has always been broken in wpvp
@@knifetoucherPeople do WPVP?
Its mostly broken for gatherbots, wpvp has always been garbo this won't save it
Dracthyr have an advantage, if you start from a high ledge and plan to fly down, no need to spend vigor to ascend before descending

So excited for this.
Looks like they took notes from guild wars 2. But definitely feels unique to wow
The sound effects were most excellent.
I’ve been so excited for harvest golem and the other mechanical ones and it looks so cool like iron man
I want them to turn the cloud serpent ground to be like the Slitherdrake. They use the same skeleton and I LOVE the way the Slitherdrake rests
All i need now is a flying kodo and noggenfogger elixir and i'm speedy gonzalez over azeroth's skies
As the same case of rocket, flame trail of al'ar is gone in official dynamic flying video too. Maybe it is a bug

With Dynamic flying you can toggle whether you are using the new type of flying or the classic flying mechanic as a heads up.
After you get all your dragonflight talents, you never have to wait to refill it, it recharges so fast, you just need to keep momentum to keep recharging your vigors
You can fly across eastern kingdoms and kalimdor and not run out of vigor, just dont spam spin all the time...
If you're running out of energy it's a skill issue on your part.

look away
so does anyone know which mounts (as of right now in alpha) DONT have dynamic flying available?
Well, like 400 mounts have it, and there’s like 900 mounts in total, so, I’d assume most if not all flying mounts have it
@@warbosspapasmurf "900 mounts" includes ground mounts which obviously won't have dynamic flying ^^ there's probably less then a dozen flying mounts that won't get dynamic flying

Mount model types that can fly;
Proto drakes (flamehawks, protodrakes)
Pegasus (Invincible, Hearthsteeds, celestial steed)
Dragons
Rays (Nether ray, Argus rays, Zaralek rays)
Dragonhawks
Flying mechanicals
Flying boats
Discs
Gargoyles (gravewings, antorus hounds)
Bats
Serpents (Cloud serpents, Nzoth worms, mind worms)
Jellyfish (hivemind, protoforms)
Flying cats
Chineras
Flying foxes
Insects (bees, wasps, flies)
Birds
Flying spiders like BFA blood beast?
awesome, but i find the fast speed white effects on the screen annoying as i cant see the beautiful world properly. wonder if you can turn it off
Yes, you can turn it off in the Graphics settings
@@SleepySloth2705 thanks!
THey need to add a cloud mount and we can go full DBZ
Or better yet make the monk zen flight able to dynamic
Can you do classic flying for dracthyr?
That would be cool, they should also let dracthyr go into flight mode mid air.
Yes
Lets face it. What really happens on a disc mount is you holding on, trying to make sure you dont fly off it 😂
Have they found the Shaman set yet?!?
many of the models seem much more static and it doesn't fit always. like if a hummingbird would fly like an albatross
Are we gonna lose the normal flight ?
NOOOOOO NOT THE DRUID !!!
No, it'll be a toggle
@@TuberoseKisser Nice thanks
Did you get that hat from Zelda TotK? Lol.
