WoW Dragonflight patch for April 1 adds Top Gun Dragonriding

pcgamesn.com:

The April Fools WoW Dragonflight patch notes are here, and Blizzard has kept up its usual impeccable standard of ripping into itself and its own game with plenty of funny in-jokes and novelty ‘additions’ to its long-running MMORPG. In-keeping with the traditional yearly spirit of silliness, this year’s patch notes include a Top Gun raid, a dungeon that randomly swaps characters, and all-new World of Warcraft dual classes.

WoW patch 10.10, which the team calls “Ten Fast Ten Spurious,” wastes no time letting you know it’s not being serious – but WoW fans will absolutely want to read these patch notes in full, because they’re packed from top to bottom with some delightful nonsense. Up-front is the new raid, Drop Zone Maverick – a fully airborne raid. “Yes, you read that correctly,” Blizzard proclaims, “It’s finally time to spend an entire raid Dragonriding.”

There are two new dungeons described. The first, named Meta-Dungeons, are WoW’s “first arbitrarily restricted content” and may only be run by “the top eight specs in the game (as decided by random players running an addon).” The second, Severed Instance Dungeons, hand your character over to another player for the entirety of the dungeon. Actually, I quite like the sound of that one – I’d genuinely be up for giving that a shot.

There’s a new ‘Food Reactionary’ class that requires you to earn “updoots” on your culinary livestreams, while Blizzard also notes that “In the PTR, data miners will see some evidence of upcoming content: dual classes.” These include the Paladin and Death Knight combo ‘Judge Dead’ and the Priest and Rogue duo, titled ‘Holy Smokes.’
