It’s been a good while since World of Warcraft players have been able to fly in high-level zones, but as of today the skies are the limit for Warlords of Draenor pilots.
Patch 6.2.2 turns on flight for players who have achieved the account-wide Draenor Pathfinder achievement. Flying wasn’t always assured for Draenor, as Blizzard flirted with the idea of keeping it turned off entirely, only to backtrack after significant player backlash. Flight is also scheduled to be included in the upcoming Legion expansion.
Today’s patch also includes the new PvP mercenary mode, a longer period of time for bonus events, and new badges and rewards for Timewalking dungeons. Blizzard Watch has a handy guide of what to do in the update.
