Well The Stuff of Dreams is part of achievements_zone_suramar.gif Good Suramaritan - A Growing Crisis is one of the storylines and the last quest of this chain will send you to the The Emerald Nightmare. I have done all parts of A Growing Crisis except the one for the emerald nightmare and it still shows the storyline not complete so I would assume that's confirmation. I still have 4 more storylines to do for Good suramaritan so I don't know if anymore will require raid or dungeon. I also still have the last 4 parts of Vrykul Story, BroVrykul Story, Bro  to do and don't know if any of those will require raid or dungeon. As far as Broken Isles Pathfinder, Part Two well its said above the following...

"Breaching the Tomb

  • We won't be able to access the Tomb of Sargeras immediately. The raid is gated behind attunement and the first step starts in the Cathedral of Eternal Night, which is a new four-boss dungeon added in 7.2."

so if true there's a dungeon and another raid

I just don't get the problem. 

The Flight Whistle gets you a flight master every five minutes.  That's 1 WQ, MAYBE 2 if you find an easy one to burn. 

Nobody else gets flight either UNTIL they do all this stuff.  Until they are willing to do even a modicum of extra work (if you can call LFR work?  More work dealing with people than doing the actual mechanics.)

You can definitely do that Good Samaritan part in LFR, so at least they are making it fairly easy for people. I would assume the same will happen if another raid is introduced. They are also adding the Mythic only dungeons to the LFD tool, so you'll be able to do those by LFD too. It sounds like they are definitely trying to make it easy for solo players too.

What the hell are you guys talking about? The achievement(s) literally require you to do stuff that you would do regardless of the reward, you're getting the achievements just by playing the game. You're not doing anything that you wouldn't do otherwise unless the only thing you do in the game is fly around and log off. There is no way not to get it, even if you don't want to, unless you aren't playing the game at all. I just don't understand how you think this is grind or some insane requirement. 

LOL, ok, let me try to put this into perspective for you.  

Being able to fly in legion....it's a simple flag attached to your account.  An admin, someone higher than a GM, can simply set the flag, done, you can fly.  Blizzard has decided to automate setting this flag by gating it behind 2 achievements.  ok cool

Your right, simply playing the game, you'll eventually get flying.  Casually playing the game, without actively trying to unlock Flying can take several months.  I would dare say, upwards of a year.  People like myself, like the others who have complained, they don't want to wait a year, to be able to fly in Legion.  Flying is just too d@mn convenient to wait that long.  From a trade-skill farming perspective alone, it's just too convenient.

So, they're forced to actively work for it, which takes significant time.  Probably about a months time worth of playing.  When you do this, it literally becomes a very grueling grind!  And that's where the complaining comes from.  Knowing that it's a simple flag that an admin can set in under 5 seconds, yet having to spend a month of actively working for it, It's just plain not fun!

I just now reached 110, literally yesterday, and I'm already itching to be able to fly.  Being relegated to using the flight masters to get around, and my mount, which I know is 3 times slower than flying...and I'm telling you:  I   CAN'T    WAIT    TO     FLY!!

Well, According to your logic and it being simply a "Flag" that is turned on or off, I know that my bank only has to change a few numbers and my account would have millions. My Credit Card company could turn a little flag on, or off and my credit limit could be unlimited. So why should I have to work to make any of this Fiat Currency, and instead just be given everything I ever wanted. Yes, Flying is great, but having to earn it makes it much more satisfying. I do agree that the means should be simpler (not to be read as easier). Maybe they could offer it as a "Complete 5 of the following X achievements." And have it where 5 are from solo content, 5 are from raids/dungeons, and 5 are from PVP, but just expecting it to be a flag that is turned on for you because you don't want to play the whole of their work, is kind lackluster.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
