Wow | Dragonflight Repack

Want to try out the new Renown system without grinding? Want to spawn in 10,000 dragons and watch them fight? A repack lets you use GM (Game Master) commands to manipulate the world, fly at mach speed, and test out Dragonriding mechanics without restrictions.

Linux / macOS users can run via Wine

Usually, it includes:
