MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Flying in Dalaran

Is it intended that you cannot fly out of Dalaran (and has it always been this way)?

I haven't spent much time in the capital yet so I'm curious.

Re: Flying in Dalaran

For the time being, it is intended that you cannot fly within the city of Dalaran. We want you to be able to fly into Dalaran and fly out of Dalaran (via mounting at the flying landing or in the sewer pipe) but we don't want people flying around the city streets. We do want people to be able to mount on their ground mounts in the city (but not indoors).

This isn't entirely set up properly yet and not all things are working. Most of this will be implemented over the coming weeks. If it's horrible, we'll change it. But that's what we're trying out right now.

A big complaint of Shattrath was that it did not feel like a city. A goal of Dalaran was to re-capture the bustling street feel of places like Stormwind and Orgrimmar. Flying mounts work contrary to this goal.

Q u o t e:
Would be nice if you could fly from Krasus Landing if nothing else.

You're supposed to be able to. It's just not working yet. Should be fixed soon.

Q u o t e:

Also we need to be able to ride our mounts through the building to get to krasus landing, worst dismount ever.

I agree. We'll see if we can get this fixed.
