With today's announcement of Dragonflight Season 4, Blizzard revealed that all Dragonflight raids will be Awakened starting the week of June 4th, limiting players' opportunities to overgear raids during Season 4. With Dragonflight Season 4 being a Dragonflight «Victory Lap» as Blizzard called it previously, many players were looking to use this extra power to overgear some of the raid content of the season to farm transmogs, mounts, and manuscripts that they ended up missing.
