Revision as of 01:59, 20 October 2009

No-fly zones are areas in Northrend where flying works, so long as you are well above the ground or while combat is not occurring in a combat zone, such as Wintergrasp.

If you fly too low, or enter a combat zone during combat, you will get a warning, and after a few seconds you will be forcefully dismounted with a parachute-like buff to prevent dying from falling. The parachute lasts until you hit the ground.

Types

Can't fly too low
  • In Dalaran you can fly through the city, so long as you remain at least 20 yards above the ground. You cannot mount on any flying mount or shift into Ability druid flightform [Flight Form] while on the ground.
Can't fly during certain times
  • In Wintergrasp you can fly through the whole zone, land, and takeoff from the ground so long as a battle is not taking place. During combat you will be forcefully dismounted after a few seconds.

Notes

Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms, and Northrend (before you get Spell frost arcticwinds [Cold Weather Flying]) act similarly to no-fly zones in that you cannot mount on any flying mount or shift into Flight Form, but you will not be forcibly dismounted, since there is no way to enter these areas while flying.

Cataclysm This section concerns content related to Cataclysm.

With World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, flying mounts will be available to use in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms.

Patch changes

Wrath-Logo-Small Patch 3.2.0 (2009-08-04): The no flying zone rules are slightly changed.
