WoW: Dragonflight: Quests should make dragon riding more interesting
In the latest beta build of WoW: Dragonflight, the developers have made some adjustments to dragon riding. The most exciting of these is likely to be the implementation of quests that reward our participation in the various dragon races with lots of XP – and unlock more races.
Dragon riding is one of the big features we can look forward to in the upcoming WoW: Dragonflight expansion. To make sure this isn’t just another way of getting around, the developers put a lot of work into integrating dragon riding into the story and our actions on the Dragon Isles. Among other things, dragon races take place all over the island, in which we can either compete against time or against other players.
So far, this has been a small gimmick that has only been rewarded with a few successes. But the developers didn’t think that was enough, so they made some adjustments with the latest beta build. Now there are a lot of quests related to the dragon races in the game, which reward our heroes with plenty of experience points. Anyone who has successfully completed all “normal” races unlocks the advanced races, which are again accompanied by some quests for bonus XP.
This makes it interesting to do the various dragon races during the leveling process – even if our dragon hasn’t unlocked all the talents yet.
Relief and Bugs
In addition, the races were made a little easier. So we now get an acoustic aid to find the direction faster. If we fly through a ring, the next ring emits a sound, which we should use to immediately recognize the direction in which we have to fly. This could be particularly useful in the wooded areas. Also fixed a few bugs where the double jump speed boost would kick in at the wrong time. Here is the full statement from the developers:
Hello Dragonriders,
With today’s update, we’d like to share a couple notes:
- When Dragonriding Racing, the next ring now emanates a sound to help players triangulate its position
- We’ve fixed a bug whereby the forward boost of the double jump launch would occur earlier in the launch
- New tour side quests have been added, inviting players to complete all of a zone’s time trials for additional experience
- Once a player completes all tours, they unlock advanced races and a new set of tour sidequests to complete those
- New Known Issue:
- While recharging, the Vigor UI shows a repeating texture. Apologies for the inconvenience here.
How do you like the idea of integrating the dragon races more prominently during the leveling process in the form of quests? Or do you not care at all, since you can’t do anything with the new form of locomotion anyway and you ignore the new feature as much as possible? Let us know what you think about dragon riding in the comments.
