Patch 10.2 Guardians of the Dream is coming to Dragonflight November 7th, and along with all of the other content in the update, we’ll finally be able to use traditional flying mounts in the Dragon Isles.
As with previous new continents, flying in the Dragon Isles will require completing an achievement, Dragon Isles Pathfinder. This achievement only needs to be completed once per account. Once completed, it will unlock flying mounts in the Dragon Isles for all characters on the account.
The achievement requires completing the zone storylines for Waking Shores, Ohn’ahran Plains, Azure Span, Thaldraszus, Forbidden Reach, and Zaralek Cavern. You’ll also need to reach Renown level 15 with all six of the major Dragon Isles Factions. (There is no Renown requirement for the achievement per a later blue post.) Finally, you’ll have to fully explore Zaralek Cavern and the new Emerald Dream zone.
As for using Dragonriding mounts in areas outside of the Dragon Isles, that remains to be seen. Perhaps we’ll hear some plans for this at BlizzCon this weekend.
We’ve just updated our Guardians of the Dream update notes 4 with an expanded explanation of the requirements for the forthcoming achievement Dragon Isles Pathfinder, which grants traditional flying in many Dragon Isles zones. It requires:
- Waking Hope – Complete the Waking Shores storyline.
- Ohn’a’roll – Complete the Ohn’ahran Plains storyline.
- Azure Spanner – Complete the Azure Span storyline.
- Just Don’t Ask Me to Spell It – Complete the Thaldraszus storyline.
- Embers of Neltharion – Complete the Forbidden Reach and Zaralek Cavern storylines.
- Freshscales Fifteen – Achieve renown fifteen with all major factions on the Dragon Isles: Dragonscale Expedition, Maruuk Centaur, Iskaara Tuskarr, Valdrakken Accord, Loamm Niffen, and Dream Wardens.
- Explore Zaralek Cavern – Explore Zaralek Cavern, revealing the covered areas of the world map.
- Explore the Emerald Dream – Explore the Emerald Dream, revealing the covered areas of the world map.
The Guardians of the Dream content update is coming one week from today, on November 7.
