What does everyone think about the changes to Allied Races and Riding Skills? I for one am excited, at least for the Allied Races updates. I don’t really mind one way or another for the Riding Skills. It’ll be nice not to have to dump a load of gold into skills and basic mounts for each new character, but the game hands gold out hand over fist in the early levels.

I was looking at the requirements for unlocking the Zandalari Trolls earlier tonight, and WOW. 😱 That’s a big time sink! I imagine it’ll feel like treason for those who went through all the steps to unlock the allied races prior to the patch… But it’ll be nice not to have to drag myself through all those steps. 😅

What’s the community’s thoughts on these changes?

10.1.5 isn’t out yet, and there’s no official date as far as I know. Just nebulously “this summer.” There are more changes, including Warlock coming to a bunch of new races. Full patch notes here: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/dragonflight-fractures-in-time-ptr-development-notes/1587226

    My lifetime of being a cheapass with all my alts is about to payoff. And also I’m definitely going to make some allied race alts now that i don’t have to go back and do all the old content i avoided by skipping BFA and SL.

      Lol, I’ve seen this exact thing a lot. So many people only pulled out the ole gold pouch for their mains and let their alts wander the lands on foot. No more!
