World of Warcraft Shadowlands has just received a new update: Chains of Domination. In patch 9.1, players can hop into Torghast to check out the new features from Blizzard. Before that, though, the first thing you’ll need to do is unlock it.
WoW Shadowlands initially breathed new life into the iconic franchise, and after a content drought of sorts, Chains of Domination updates Torghast. It also gives players brand new mounts to unlock, the chance to explore Korthia, and the new mega-dungeon, Tazavesh, to get stuck into.
Pre-sales for Shadowlands were rated as the highest of any other expansion in the title’s history and the release has seen fans old and new come together to explore WoW’s spooky new realm.
Even though the expansion has been out for a while now, one of the coolest aspects of the expansion is still the rogue-like dungeon.

What is Torghast in WoW Shadowlands?
Torghast is an essential part of WoW: Shadowlands for players. An infinite dungeon, it changes every time a player attempts a new run.
As players progress through the dungeon they’ll come across stronger enemies, and pick up Anima Powers that provide different boosts to your character. You’ll also collect Torghast’s unique currency, Phantasma. This can be used to purchase items and different Anima Powers from Broker Ve’ken to aid you in battle.
It’s also the only place you can collect both Soul Ash and Soul Cinders, which are vital for crafting Legendaries to improve your power out in the world.
Be careful, though! As you level up, your enemies do too, so you best be prepared to enter this tower of terror. Otherwise, you might just be losing the very items you covet.
