Ok, so I just got back from helping my local high school's marching band camp, after all, it is good to help your community, and it was a lot of fun. So after 5 days, I come on WoW and my main is in Wintergrasp.
So I just kind of want to ride around back to the flight master, no point in wasting a hearth, when suddenly, a ret paladin flies down from the sky and begins attacking me.
Well, he has great gear, full PvP set I think, so, I will just ride away. He probably was just flying down to begin with.
Well, after he did a little damage, I got away and was out of combat. Easy enough, no loss in time really, or health, but then, the same pally is once again flying directly infront of me on his epic flyer. He decends and once again opens fire.
I was too shocked to fight back, and by now, I was sitting at 66% ish health. Not really the best way to fight a pally by any means. So I contiune to run and the cycle repeats. In 2 more tries he kills me(thanks to several large crit hits).
My question is why.
Why make this change?
I don't remember seeing ANYTHING like this on the PTR or in the notes! So I rez, and as I am typing this, I see more people in the sky flying!
Is this a bug, a cheater or a legitimate change?
If the answer is the third, which it is, because I just tried it out myself, I say this is a bad idea. This makes it harder to gather in wintergrasp for people without flyers. Not to mention we could have dozens of the Seasonal OP class flying around slowly killing anything in their sights! Paladins are tough enough without flying, but now they can chase anyone who doesn't have an epic flyer into submission? Or worse, swoop down for a devastating rotation of dismount, stealth and stun?!
