Multiple sites interviewed the WoW dev team about Chains of Dominance, and we've summarized the most important bits.

Eurogamer Interview

  • Korthia, the Maw's new area, will be more relaxed (no Eye of the Jailer or lost Stygia upon death).
  • The four Covenant campaigns will be continued.
  • We will fight the Tarragrue in the new Sanctum of Domination raid.
  • Flying will be easier to unlock than in the past. You will need to complete the campaign, and there is no rep grind this time around.
  • New layers and a new aesthetic wing will be added to Torghast.
  • Ion thinks Covenant balance has been overall successful, and they were able to address any shortcoming in Patch 9.0.5.

PC Gamer Interview

  • Blizzard won't specify the release date of Patch 9.1.
  • Patch 9.1 isn't your usual .1 update for the game, it's a big one.
  • The Jailer is looking for something within Korthia.
  • They intend for Chains of Domination to be a substantial furtherance of the Shadowlands' storyline.
  • We will learn more about Sylvanas in 9.1, which is an important part of the story.
  • Players will be able to complete tasks to alter how the Eye of the Jailer system works.
  • Tazavesh, the new Megadungeon, is going to feature a Pirate Dragon boss. The dungeon is a nice contrast to the Sanctum of Domination.

Polygon Interview

  • Blizzard wants the Maw and Korthia to feel seamless.
  • The 9.1 Maw will be a mix of new and familiar. There will be a pre-Korthia version of the Maw for new characters.
  • A safe zone will be established within the Maw.
  • Having a safe zone there will reduce the effects of the Eye of the Jailer, allowing you to spend more time in the Maw.
  • We won't be able to fly in the Maw.

      How to Upgrade Fyr'alath and Nasz'uro in Dragonflight Season 4
      By Stan
      Here's how you can upgrade your legendary weapons in Dragonflight Season 4 next week!
      This one is for Fyr'alath and Nasz'uro owners. You must first farm 2 Antique Bronze Bullions. However, you can only acquire 1 Antique Bronze Bullion per week from Awakened Raid bosses. The bullion will drop in Raid Finder difficulty too.
      Next week, the cap will be raised to 2 and a catch-up method will be implemented, so players who didn't have the chance to get their first bullion can get it from the weekly quest in Valdrakken.
      Anyway, the soonest you can upgrade your legendary to the base item level of 502 is during the week of April 30th (so next week).
      Once you have 2 Antique Bronze Bullions, head to the Parting Glass in Valdrakken.

      Evokers need to buy Scale of Awakening from Iszinormi for 2 Antique Bronze Bullions. Death Knights, Paladins, and Warriors need to buy Scale of Awakening from Iszinormi for  2 Antique Bronze Bullions. Once purchased, use the consumable to upgrade your legendary to item level 502, the base item level for Season 4.
      After that, you can further upgrade your legendary using Flightstones and crests. Check out our gear upgrading guide for more info!
