This week Leeta starts an Allied Race Working Man - Vulpera Shaman named Vulpess!

Chat Time – Patch 10.1.5

Patch 10.1.5 is NOW LIVE  https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/23973736/the-fractures-in-time-content-update-is-now-live

Patch Notes on Wowhead  https://www.wowhead.com/news/dragonflight-patch-10-1-5-fractures-in-time-patch-notes-333860

This patch includes some items of major interest for challengers (covered in the patch notes)

All restrictions for creating Allied Races have been removed, except  that you have a lvl 40 on your account,.

Riding/flying skills are now granted for free at the current appropriate levels (10/20/30/40)

Potential issue for BT’s: Characters that reach level 30 will receive the quest “Time to Fly” and be awarded with a flying mount:

This is a big one - Characters level 10–60 that have not been logged into for 60 days will now have the option to receive a Welcome Back Gift on the character select screen.

The Welcome Back Gift includes:

◦ Select a specialization upon log in to become equipped with updated bags and gear that is appropriate to the character’s level and selected specialization. All previously worn items and bags can be collected from the mailbox.

◦ Teleport to the character’s home city of Orgrimmar or Stormwind.

◦ All quests in the quest log will be cleared to provide a clean slate. To continue your leveling journey, head to Chromie in Orgrimmar Embassy or Stormwind Embassy.

What does NOT appear to be present (at least not at this time with the patch notes, is any mention of making regular flying an option to dragonflying.  Seems like there had been some allusions to that as a possibility, but nothing at this point.

• There IS a dragonriding race event scheduled to take place in Kalimdor in August.
