Upcoming Changes to Dragonriding - Surge Forward Buffed, Accessibility Option for Max Speed

Dragonflight Posted 2022/09/06 at 1:05 PM by Squishei

Hello dragonriders!A couple updates coming in an upcoming build that warranted pointing out:

The text in the tooltips for dragon isle drakes have been corrected to state more accurate values. NOTE: Actual maximum speed values have not changed from the previous build.
For those that need or want a quieter full screen effect for max speed, the accessibility option “Alternate Full Screen Effects” now lessens the dragonriding max speed effect. Please try this out and share your feedback.
Surge Forward’s effectiveness has been increased by 20%.

Okay, that out of the way, always nice to see more accessibility options added. No one should have to suffer motion sickness to participate in new flight.Comment by EvellathVery excited to see the lessened wind effects change!Comment by AgentkillerleeBUT WHAT ABOUT CHANGES TO <X CLASS> OR <Y SPEC>?

Just seems like, if we're gonna put all that effort into collecting unique appearances and such, it should at least function like a normal mount outside of the Dragon Isles, even if we can't "dragon ride", you know?Comment by vindurzaSo when is the timegating coming? Cause you know Activision will not let this sit as is.Comment by vindurzaSo, with Dragonriding... is it just Dragonriding that's limited to Dragon Isles, or is it the mount entirely?

If they enable it everywhere it will obviously kill hundreds of mounts that currently exist and making more dragonriding mounts is probably more difficult than creating regular mounts so we wouldn't get too many new mounts. I can't think of any elegant solution so hopefully they can, they have around 2 years for that.Comment by charlefine
Coming from somebody who's obviously never tried Dragonriding lol.
