I had other plans for today but then I saw the news!
We can FLY! All it takes is getting some work.
You may recall in one of my Monday post a rant with pros and cons to flying in Warlords. While I attempted to show both sides, the main argument for not flying was: Experience the content. While the main FOR flying was: Alts.
Well, now they have a nice balance!
You can read the article here: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/19800551/dev-watercooler-flying-in-draenor-6-10-2015 Or just keeping on my blog! Or both!
Short story: You get the full experience, THEN you fly. My idea was at the end of the expac so atleast your alts could blow through but I actually like this better.
Pretty much your going to do a meta achievement released in 6.2.
You can still be a loremaster on your druid. Be the rep farmer on your hunter. Treasure hunt and explore with your rogue, and farm the gold with your warrior! That's the joy of Metas. Most of you probably have one or maybe ALL of these achieves already.
Now if you don't have them all:
First, Loremaster. That means doing the MAIN storyline of the zone. You most likely finished or nearly finished most of those, right? So just mop that up with someone.
Second, Treasures. If your working your garrison you probably have a few maps. I hope you were learning them cause these treasures give great rewards in selling for gold, exp, and garrison resources. If you haven't got the maps via garrison then you can buy them at Ashran from the Archology guy, or you can find a guide on WoW Head or your own person poison. I personally may make a map myself to put here in the next week or two.
Just remember: This has to be 100 on ONE character! Getting the awesome fish on 100 characters wont work.
Third: Explore. Yes, its part of it. Naturally, just running you've probably picked up all but one or two locations on every map. If you don't have a grey area to run to then check comments on your choice sites. (Again, I should do a map..) I honestly suggest doing this one on the character you do Loremaster or treasures with. Two bird one stone.
Four: Securing Draenor. This is the "Assault" dailies. You can spend 200 resources to get certain ones a day but it'll take time. I'd pick the one with most done and start that now.
Last: New Reps. This is one you CANT start. You have to get 3 to revered. And there is only 3 of them. so.. ALL the new reps in 6.2. Cant start yet but you CAN make it easier. First, if you hate rep, do it on a human. The racial ups your Rep gain. Two, get the trading post. Its a 20% increase for all those reps in Warlords. Last, get any and all rep boosters you can. Be they standards, buffs, or what nots. Save a few tickets and buy the Darkmoon Hat! It gives a small rep buff after all. It'll help! But you cant hold outside of Darkmoon week. But it'll help when time comes! And the WHEE! buff from there too. Go ahead and grab it and sit till the patch hits if you REALLY want a jump!
Finally. You got the achieves! Whats your reward? A new flying mount! A Rylak to be exact. BUT! No flying till a sub patch in 6.2. Probably 2 weeks to 6 weeks after (is my guess), THEN all your 90+ can fly in Warlords. Till then, still grounded.
That being said, theres no need to rush or feel pressured. So don't go bouncing off. Do it at your own steady pace!
Good luck!
