How fast flight master

I feel this is pretty negative, as one of the coolest things about TBC is meant to getting epic flying. In actual TBC it was generally faster to fly somewhere on your mount, than use a flight path.

In Classic TBC it is almost always faster to use the flight path, which i think is a real shame. Is just an illusion is not flying faster.

I took the shattra n52 flypath I finish one sezone show of Rick and Morty hahah. I done the race with a player in game. If it the speeds were correct when you follow a flight path they would move away from you at half normal movement speed, yet they bolt off way faster than you. It seems that for some people that the more miserable the game is, the better the game becomes. Flight masters, while hostile to enemy players, have no aggro radius and will only attack enemy players if they attack them first.

This is done so that neutral places like Light's Hope Chapel , where both Alliance and Horde flight masters reside, allow players to remain there without causing unwanted PvP fights. If you log out in flight, upon logging back on, you will continue your flight from the same spot where you logged out. However, in a flight of multiple legs, you will then land at the next known waypoint of the journey. This behavior can be used to abort a flight, provided there are waypoints before the destination.

Interestingly, logging back in to an Alliance character using a flight path will change whichever steed Hippogryph, Skeletal Gryphon, Dragonhawk was being ridden before into a normal Gryphon, and Horde characters will log back in to find themselves riding a Wyvern. Since Cataclysm , all characters automatically know the flight paths to all of their faction's capital cities and starting zone hubs, as well as Shattrath City and Dalaran.

Alliance characters also learn the flight path between Rut'theran Village and Lor'danel upon discovering either one of its endpoints. Death knights begin the game with access to all of their faction's flight paths in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms , with the following exceptions: the Isle of Quel'Danas , Zul'Aman in the Ghostlands , the Bulwark at the edge of Tirisfal Glades , the Thondroril River between the Western Plaguelands and Eastern Plaguelands , and most smaller quest hubs specifically, those added in Patch 4.

All of those flight points were added after the death knight class was introduced. Originally at each flight point you had to select the next flight point you wanted to go to and so on until you reached your destination. AFK characters were more prevalent than they are now at flight points before the introduction of linked flight paths in Patch 1. For example, new players in Northrend sometimes quest in both Borean Tundra and the Howling Fjord , but are unable to fly between them because they are linked by several intermediate flight paths in much higher level zones.

Then, in Patch 4. Many zones received additional flight paths that make traveling within the zone faster and easier. And in some zones, flight paths disappeared or appeared due to changes in Alliance and Horde control.

To remedy the breaking of some flight paths, characters now received all undiscovered flight points zone-by-zone on reaching suitable character levels. AFK characters were more prevalent than they are now at flight points when the introduction of linked flight paths in Patch 1.

For example, new players in Northrend sometimes quest in both Borean Tundra and the Howling Fjord , but are unable to fly between them because they are linked by several intermediate flight paths in much higher level zones. As time has passed, additional flight points have been added at various places. The way flight paths are linked is not always the most direct and expected route.

If you log out in flight, upon logging back on, you will continue your flight from the same spot where you logged out. However, in a flight of multiple legs, you will then land at the next waypoint of the journey.

As of Cataclysm, some flights may no longer be aborted by logging out in flight. Several attempts or even waiting for 10 or more seconds has not aborted a flight to land at the nearest stop.

The flight continued until it reached the final destination previously set when the user logged out. New characters in Azeroth automatically know their capital 's flight path, their starting zone flight paths, and flight paths to the adjacent low level questing zone.

For example, if you are an orc or a troll and you visit the Crossroads before visiting Orgrimmar , talking to the Crossroads flight master will show that you can fly to Orgrimmar even though you haven't visited there yet. Death Knights begin the game with access to all of their faction's flight paths in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms , with the following exceptions: the Isle of Quel'Danas , Zul'Aman in the Ghostlands , and at the Thondroril River between the Western Plaguelands and Eastern Plaguelands.
