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
As someone who unlocked a majority of the allied races the old fasioned way having come back from not playing since WOTLK, it should have happened a long time ago. I’m not mad they’re making it available to everyone after I did it, I’m glad they’re finally making it available to everyone. I can finally reccomend the game to my friends and they can play whatever race they want!
