Air Supremacy

This WQ needs to be fixed. As BM hunter this is not an easy task. I had to use cobra, barbed, arcane and concussive, then skydive down to ground, heal up and up again. Its a WQ that wouldnt take much time, but without pets this is simply too timeconsuming :( I hope blizzard will fix it fast.

What to do for this quest:

1. When you get to the quest area, click on the weapon rack that is indicated nearby (at 40, 54 - thank you, Mypciscraze!). You will then get an extra button on your screen.

2. Click the extra button and it will cause you to be taken upward onto the back of a flying creature up in the sky, called a Flayedwing Wraith.

3. Once up on the back of the flying creature, you will need to target the hostile NPC who is also on the back of the same flying creature. You need to DPS this hostile NPC down until you defeat it. Note: make sure to target the hostile NPC! Otherwise, you won't be able to dps anything.

4. After you have defeated the hostile NPC, click the extra button again, and you will be transported onto the back of a second flying creature; repeat the same process of DPSing the second hostile NPC down and so on, until you have defeated five.

5. Once you have defeated five then you are finished and should get the quest reward. In order to exit the vehicle, click the little red arrow to the lower right of your screen, and you will be parachuted down. (Note, thank you, Doloria: yes, make sure that you are above an area where it's safe to land before you click the little red arrow to exit the vehicle. If you stay on the vehicle too long after finishing the quest then it will parachute you down automatically, and where you end up landing could be random).

**Note: annoyingly, it appears that, at least for a while, this quest was problematic for a number of classes, such as those with minions or pets (which could not be properly summoned while on the back of the flying creature). I'm not sure if this has been fixed or if the problem is still ongoing, but I read a post on here that said that now BM hunters and demo warlocks presumably receive Kyrian aid during this quest (thank you, AngelZiefer!) As a shadow priest I did not run into any trouble. Be aware that you will not be able to eat or drink between fights, so if you are not a healing class then you might want to bring along a healing potion and bandages (I saw some demon hunters say that they were not able to pick up their healing orbs to heal up during this fight, and that also they couldn't use metamorphosis). Alternatively, you can just dismount when your health is low, heal up, and then click the weapon rack again and continue where you left off (thank you, ricerd!)

Second note: someone has pointed out that when they did this there were a lot of people around and they had a hard time finding free flying creatures to target. I did this quest at around 6 AM server time and did not have this issue at all. If there are a lot of people around, then it's possible that clicking the extra action button will not do anything - which means that all the flying creatures around are currently occupied by other players. In this case, annoyingly, you just have to keep clicking until you get a free one...

Is this a joke? As a Warlock I have to resummon my pet after each jump, i.e. 6 seconds cast time. Forget it.

They really should test such stuff on a beta, before launching a new expansion.

PS (2021-01-20):

This seems to be fixed, somehow. Not completely sure, since I did the quest with my BM Hunter (my original post was for my Warlock), but now I could at least do significant damage without pet-related abilities. I.e.: The absence of the pet is not a major issue anymore.
