Blizzard has been keeping secrets!
Dragonflight Patch 10.1 is full of content, with World of Warcraft getting a new zoneZaralek Cavern, more campaign quests, and additional fun activities in the open world. But Blizzard Entertainment has been keeping two important features a secret and well only see them sometime in May.
During an interview with content creators on April 26, WoW game director Ion Hazzikostas teased players can expect two profession-related surprises in May. Unfortunately, he didnt share any additional details and we cant tell for sure what these surprises will entail.
The only tiny detail we know about these surprises is that they weren’t featured on the PTR on purpose.

Although we cant say for sure what these two surprises are, its highly likely they are related to the profession catch-up system.
Dragonflight doesnt have a catch-up system for professions, and all gatherers and crafters who started playing the expansion later simply cant catch up with players who have been grinding since day one.
In an interview from March 20, Hazzikostas said the devs are continuing their discussion about the catch-up systems for professions while trying to ensure hard-working players are still rewarded for their time and effort spent.
Again, this is just a speculation and we can only confidently say that Patch 10.1 will have two profession-related surprises for WoW players. Patch 10.1 is coming out on May 2 and, hopefully, players wont have to wait a long time before they see what Blizzard has in store for them.
