wow Flying Available at Level 25 in Shadowlands

[Stan 5,242]

You will unlock your 60% mount at level 10 and flying at level 25 in Shadowlands.

Shadowlands comes with a level squish and all characters that currently have level 120 will be scaled down to level 50 once the expansion pre-patch goes live. With that in mind, Blizzard made adjustments to levels required to unlock mounts and flying.

New characters will unlock their first mount when they finish Exile's Reach. 150% flying is available at level 25.

If flying is still gonna cost thousands of gold, they better significantly increase the reward payout from quests.

What difference will it make, the only people that get a choice not to do the new area is new players, all of us older ones will have the gold we can just send to our alts.

For a sec I read this and thought they'd done away with the stupid flight restrictions ?

So did they do away with the stupid pathfinder achievement requirement to fly?

Read my post.   What they actually mean (I think) is that when you're levelling you can get flying at 25.     Still probably restricted in the new content though for the "awesome" pathfinder bs

Any idea of what will happen for older content: Draenor, Legion, BFA?

If Blizzard says, "Fine, it's an old expansion and everyone can fly there in those three areas now", it will anger those who spent months grinding it out.

If they keep it AS IS and force people to complete it for their Pathfinders, those saying flying should be available in old content will start screaming for blood again.

Truly, I can see both arguments as valid actually; I've done my own share of cursing after having completed WoD, returned and completed BfA, and almost completed Legion.  I've HATED every moment of it, and even now, I still think it is time-wasting BS used to maintain longer subscription time.  So yeah, I admit, I'd be frustrated too if Blizzard just gave it out free to everyone after Shadowlands is released considering how much so many have struggled for it.

The whole "WILL THEY OR WON'T THEY?" just leaves me curious as to what those prowling about the data network in Shadowlands have uncovered.

We don't know yet, and quite frankly, Draenor Pathfinder should have been removed a long time ago now that we're two expansion away from  WoD and the same goes for Legion zones. With Blizzard normalizing the levelling experience, it would make sense to grant everyone Draenor and Legion flying. I, for one, wouldn't touch any of those expansions without flying when there's Pandaria where you can fly by default. They did remove the Exalted rep requirement for Allied Races, however, (gating them behind old content is somewhat obsolete) and my hopes are they will be doing the same with flying, since unlocking it is tedious and literally to no avail. Why spending several weeks to unlock Draenor flying when you never go back in the Shadowlands expansion?

Exactly, unless you're a masochist and pick those areas for leveling alts. ?  I got Pathfinder for Draenor years ago before the long break.  When I returned, I was grinding Legion, but the terrain made me curse to the degree that the devil found me offensive!  LOL!  I did BfA because it was more prominent.  Now, I'm just finishing Legion because I've nothing better to do really.  But I hope you're right; I hope they see the logic and give flying to the expacs leading up to BfA.
