World Of Warcraft: Argus Is A No-Fly Zone, End Of Story

world of warcraft flying mountIf you’re one of those World of Warcraft players who ever dreamed of soaring through the skies of Argus then this news may very well send your dreams plummeting to the ground. Community Manager Ornyx confirmed on the official forums that Argus is, and will eternally be, a no-fly zone. To be fair, Argus isn’t the first no-fly zone in World of Warcraft, as Ornyx was quick to point out.

“This is nothing new, and we don't have any plans to change this going forward. New zones added in patch content have never to my knowledge had flying allowed. Even when flying was introduced in 2.0, flying was not available on the Isle of Quel'danas when it released in 2.4. The same is true of Isle of Thunder and Timeless Isle from 5.2 and 5.4. These zones have always been about exploration, with a bit of danger, and Argus fits quite nicely into that theme.”

Ornyx adds that Argus was meant to be difficult. “Argus isn't supposed to be a friendly and hospitable place, and I wouldn't bet my gold on a demon sitting down for tea with me any time soon,” he writes. “If you're having trouble and finding it difficult to get around and avoid pitfalls, then Argus is working as intended.”

Argus is the final zone in the World of Warcraft: Legion expansion and was introduced as part of the Shadows of Argus update that went live on August 29. You can find the official update trailer for Shadows Argus down below.
