The Dragonflight Alpha process was officially opened to players yesterday, and content creators introduced the new World of Warcraft feature Dragon Riding system to players.
The new World of Warcraft feature Dragon Riding has debuted. World of Warcraft. Dragonflight was announced last February and promised radical changes to the game. One of the new systems introduced was the “Dragon Riding” flight system, exclusive to the Dragon Isles.
In summary, Dragon Riding is a system that evolves over time, aiming to provide a faster and more enjoyable flying experience than the normal flight speed in the game, with special dragons that you will add to your mount collection after you move to the new region of the game.
New World of Warcraft feature inspired by Dragon Riding Guild Wars 2
This system, which adapted the flying system in Guild Wars 2 to WoW and improved it considerably, was also highly appreciated by the players.
A limited number of content creators (such as Taliesin and Evitel, Bellular Gaming, Nixxiom) who were previously invited to the “Closed Alpha” version of the game shared videos detailing this new system as the game officially went into Alpha yesterday.
There are aspects of the Dragon Riding flying system that make it completely different from the normal flying system in the game. The first is that it is a mini-game system based on gaining “momentum” while flying with your dragon. In other words, you will not be able to jump on your dragon and fly straight, but you will be able to travel from one corner of the island to the other very quickly by spending the special points you have (Vigor Points).
The other is the speed difference. The videos shared by the players who tested Dragon Riding revealed that this system is 2 or even 3 times faster than the normal flying speed in the game. When Dragon Isles was announced, World of Warcraft developers emphasized that this new island was “huge”. In the videos explaining Dragon Riding, it can be seen that even the only open area of the game (Azure Span) is really big right now.
The newly added race Dracthyrs also have a “mini version” of this special flight system. Well, it was unthinkable for a race that was dragons after all not to have this feature.
