Taliesin & Evitel interviewed

A major part of the goal behind dragon riding was to make travel itself fun and engaging, rather than a chore to try get over with as quickly as possible.

Dragon riding progression includes really fun abilites. One example that they're playing with is a Bronze Dragonflight ability that lets you warp back through time to a starting point.

The level up experience for dragon riding is likely to be standard for everyone, with additional options and choices coming in at max level.

Morgan Day doesn't know of any current plans for us to be able to name our dragons, but really likes the idea. If it's something people want, now is the time to let them know.

They're still very much dedicated to the alt-friendly philosophy we began to see introduced towards the end of Shadowlands. Dragon riding mount aesthetic customization unlocks will be account-wide. They're still discussing dragon riding progress itself.

Expanded draw-distance is being introduced in the Dragon Isles for now, they do hope to begin to update older zones in the future.

Dracthyr Evoker's niche in groups will be very much burst damage or healing, and providing group utility.

Two dungeons in Azure Span. Brackenhide Hollow is a gnoll-themed dungeon. Azure Vaults is a max-level dungeon related to the Blue Dragonflight and Kalecgos's main story in the zone.

With regards to spoilers: They have been introducing surprises such as the questlines and character customization in 9.2.5. They will be leaning into secrets more often, but mostly around max-level content. Unlikely to hide too much for leveling content.

A major philosophy is to move away from feeling like you have to log in every day, and more that you have a wide range of options when you do log in.

Every zone has a major outdoor faction offering unique rewards. An example of this is the Tuskarr of Azure Span. They want to increase visibility on rewards as well so that players know exactly what they're working towards.

This alpha will work differently to previous ones. Similar to raid testing, different areas and systems will be rolled out in waves, then removed as testers are asked to focus on the next thing.

Professions are meant to stand on their own on level with other end-game content like raiding or mythic+.

Professions have cosmetic looks. A blog diving into workstations should come out soon - probably later this week.

They're still on course for a 2022 release date.
