Druid Flight Form + Water

[alaerwen]

I have a problem with my druid, I am using him to herb in vashj'ir, but when he wants to go mail, he goes up to surface and flies to the closest mailbox, but then he can't get into the water because of being in flight form, he will just hover above the watersurface, since you can't fly with flight form into water.. Is this a CC problem or a HB problem? Is there any way to bypass this? Thanks Sorry if I explained badly and I hope you understand.

This is an HBcore problem, and there's nothing you can do to work-around it directly.

The problem apparently doesn't happen for everyone (but, I'm one of them too). And, the Druid flight-form is hard-coded for Flightor, so specifying a 'normal flying mount' won't be honored in this situation.

I've been told that Raphus is aware of the situation and working on fix that falls back to 'normal mounts', if the Druid is unable to obtain flight form after a few tries. In the meantime, your work-around is to herb in Vashj'ir on something other than a Druid.

Or just come back and mail manually.. I mean it's only every several hours at the earliest you should be mailing if you have decent bags and dont loot mobs.
