Q u o t e:

Just to confirm, Tome of Cold Weather Flight is actually a new heirloom item planned to go into patch 3.2. At level 80 players can buy this heirloom item from the Cold Weather Flying Trainer in Dalaran for 1,000 gold and send it to an alt of the same realm, faction and account. The tome can be used to learn Cold Weather Flying at level 68, consuming the tome in the process.

Please note this feature is not yet in the newest version of the public test realm patch notes updated today. The item and its functionality are subject to change during the testing process.

I like it. I really really like it. It allows everyone to experience Northrend on foot at least once. Should be done for Outland too so new people experience that on foot too at least once (also for going through the dark portal at least once first before using those new portals)

Pardon, but doesnt it still require level 70 to learn how to fly AT ALL?

Oh, wait. Druids.

Stupid druids.

Do we still have to pay the 1000 for the Skill after we buy the tome, or does the tome from our level 80 replace the cost for our lower level?

Patch 3.2 lowers the level requried for regular flying to 60. So when the tome is available, alts will be able to use it at 68 just fine.

Mount changes, flying requires level 60 with the coming patch. Also regular flying is 150% movement speed instead of 60%. Epic Flying still req level 70.

Edit: Wow first, my first first.

Q u o t e:



You just have to buy the tome. The cost for the player is the same. It just means if you have an alt and can afford it, you can get yourself flying in Northrend by level 68.

---

Well, that is dang amazing for everyone! Thanks for the answer

this is good need to make 7k for flying on an alt then I can wait to have this on him when the patch comes out lol. OH if they changing the flying lvl I wonder if they remembered to change the engineers special mount seeing they both aren't available till 70 right now.

sorry if this has been addressed... but if i have already forked out 1k for cold weather flying on my main. will i have to fork out another 1000g to buy the tome to send to my alts or will i be able to get it off the trainer at no additional cost?

Why would you be able to get free tomes? He said that once the tome is used it disappears, which to me means you have to pay 1k G for each alt, you are just able to learn cold weather flying 10 levels sooner at the same price.

You will have to pay again if you want to send it to an alt. You get some faction discount though (Kirin Tor), but that's about it.

I hate krin Tor lol I will wait to get it on my shammy who is exalted with them.

---

Q u o t e:

The tome costs 1,000 gold. It is not meant to bypass the cost of the training, but only to allow for level 80 players with alts the ability to fly in Northrend once they arrive at level 68. It's a small perk for those who have reached level 80 and like leveling new races or classes. :)

I have 3 others chars that thank you =D

Nice change. Maybe while you're at it, you could add a Tome of Swift Flying (Usable at 60) to allow people with a spare 4k-5k gold to fly at 280% while they're heading through Outland.

Let me ask this, The item doesn't say anything about requiring you to actually be 80 to buy it. So what's to keep someone for buying it themself on their level 68 main and totally skipping the concept of exploring northrend as intended as main.

While i agree that alts it's a great idea, i don't think it's a good idea if new players can get it too. Bad enough they can afk level to 60 with recruite a friend in dungeons, 60-70 do about 2-3 zones with way exp was buffed out there. then at 68 fly and zip through northrend too? This person will be in LFG for ulduar heroic and emalon 2 days after they made the char, in all greens going "can I has raid?"

From what I've heard, some people have gone to the vendor on alts under level 80 and didn't see the book (or weren't able to buy it, wasn't specific besides the "can't get it" part). So there's no worry.
