Blizzard, Thanks for the Compromise..
Blizzard has made a (somewhat) reasonable compromise to the 'no-flying' decision. To open up flight in Draenor, you basically, need to have done everything on one character.
Mastering the Outdoor World
In an upcoming Public Test Realm build, we will be introducing a new meta-achievement called Draenor Pathfinder. You’ll earn this achievement in Patch 6.2 by mastering the outdoor environment of Draenor—exploring Draenor’s zones, collecting 100 treasures in Draenor (there's a 200 treasure achievement), completing the Draenor Loremaster and Securing Draenor achievements, and raising the three new Tanaan Jungle reputations to Revered. Initially, this achievement will award a rylak mount: the Soaring Skyterror, one of the native beasts that roam Draenor’s skies. Players will remain ground-bound on Draenor until a small follow-up patch (6.2.x), when all players who have earned Draenor Pathfinder on at least one character will unlock the ability to fly in Draenor on all their level 90+ characters.

- exploring Draenor’s zones - only explored 2 zones completely. (2:6)
- 100 treasures - have 10 treasures, but not 50. Can't see achievement that lists # found.
- Draenor Loremaster - Complete primary quest chain in each zone. (4:5 complete)
- Securing Draenor - Complete all 12 Bonus objectives - (7:12 complete)
Grab the Handy Notes addon. It will show you exactly where all the treasures are and make that a super easy achievement. I had the 200 thanks to it nearly immediately after release.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I got handynotes running, in addition to the maps that are available from the in-game vendors/garrison missions. Thinking there must be a 'follower' handynotes edition, so I can pick-up all those 'free' followers that are out there. Found Blook, who else did I miss..
