When the previous patch added new content to "World of Warcraft" such as a new area to explore and gameplay to check out, many avid "WoW" players were hoping that developer Blizzard Entertainment would also add a flying feature for gamers, but it was not a part of the patch. For patch 6.2, however, players will have a chance to fly through the skies of Draenor.

Blizzard will introduce the new option in the upcoming update, but it will not make it as easy as purchasing a mount or just adding a flying skill. 

In past DLCs, gamers autimatically unlock the flying skill once they hit the required level cap and then pay for training. However, in the "Warlords of Draenor" expansion, the flight skill will not be so easily reached. Instead, a flying feature will be added as a player achievement. In order for players to enjoy this privilege, they will have to unlock a meta-achievement, the Draenor Pathfinder title. 

To achieve the title, players have to complete a set of requirements. First, their character must explore all regions of Draenor and find at least 100 treasures. In addition, the players must complete all of the quest achievements and bonus objectives in Draenor, and earn a Revered title with the Tanaan Jungle reputations — Order of the Awakened, The Saberstalkers, and Hand of the Prophet for Alliance characters or Vol'jin's Headhunters for Horde. 

After completing the requirements and earning the title, players will be given a flying mount called Soaring Skyterror. However, players would still need to wait for a follow-up micro update before the flying skill can be activated.
