Additionally when you tie a BoP material in combination with a Cooldown material you are doubly limiting the creation of said item. For Epics fine if doubly restrict them, but for Blue items that get replaced after running a few heroics it is a ludicrous restriction.

As to the no flying, so what if people were spoiled by having the convenience of flying while leveling in Cataclysm. Leveling in tBC sucked because they designed the zones, maybe not the quests but the zones with flying in mind, same with 1-60 now with flying in old world they decided to be like, lets put more hills in to make the landscape look better from the air, which is cool, but sucked while leveling to 60.

Additionally if it is for the “story” sake, fine, I get 1 character to 90, I have seen enough of the story, now let me buy a BoA book for the rest of my character so as not to waste even more of my time forcing me to power grind to level quickly because I can’t do shit until I hit 90 as that is where all of the initial road blocks end and then the next super rep grind begins. I also don’t have the alternative option of leveling via dailies to gain faction reputation while leveling since they don’t unlock until hitting level 90.

This was the case in both Wrath (Frozen Orbs) and Cata (Chaos Orbs) to start. Most higher end recipes required one. It will eventually be undone as both were.

“No Flying Until Level 90 – On Each Character”

People seems spoiled by the fact Cataclysm allowed this. I say it’s a good thing. We couldn’t fly until just shy of max level in both BC and Wrath. Cata did away with it and it basically ruined any sense of exploration.

It was lame in Northrend and it is even more lame in MoP.

So, even if you had 0 gold when you hit 90 it’d take you 125 dailies, or 5 days under the old cap limit if your only gold source was daily quest rewards.

It’s certainly a gold sink, but not too much of a burden, even for people with alts.

Feels like the old northrend flying license was more of a burden than this.

I see no reason to restrict flying to level cap to begin with. I can partially accept their bogus quest flow story telling reason and will accept it for the first character, but after that no, no reason whats so ever. Other than to just increase leveling and travel time for the sake of making the world feel larger.

Besides, allowing flight in Pandaria from the get go isn’t going to change anything about node farming. If nothing else, you’re just going to have MORE assholes dropping in on that node you wanted. A level 90 is going to poach a noad from a level 86 regardless, because what’s the 86 going to do about it? But a level 86 with flight is much more likely to poach another level 86 without it because they’re more likely to be able to get away. Hell, I’ve poached guys a few levels above me before in places like Deepholm because I know with swift flight form, I could get in and out before the guy would have a chance to do a thing about it.
