As players work through World of Warcraft's Dragonflight expansion, they will unlock several Dragonriding mounts that they can take to the skies. While some fans will be satisfied with how these drakes look by default, others will undoubtedly want to customize them to their preferred specifications. Fortunately for these players, it is possible to customize dragons in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, and this guide explains exactly how that is done.

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight - Where to Customize Dragon

Players that are interested in customizing their dragons must simply visit a Rostrum of Transformation, devices that are found in each of the four zones of the Dragon Isles in WoW: Dragonflight. Notably, Rostrums of Transformation appear on the mini-map as golden dragon heads when they are nearby, and the following maps and coordinates will make it easy to find all four of them:

Upon locating a Rostrum of Transformation, players should interact with it in order to access the customization options that are available to them. Initially, those options will be quite limited, and fans will need to progress through the story in World of Warcraft's Dragonflight expansion in order to unlock new skins. Additionally, fans that want to adjust the fine details of these skins will need to obtain Drakewatcher Manuscripts and use them from within their inventories.

For the uninitiated, Drakewatcher Manuscript come from many sources, and players can earn them by increasing their Renown with the major factions in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, by completing certain quests, and by taking on the expansion's dungeons. There are also Manuscripts to be obtained through dragon racing, professions, and the Vault of the Incarnates raid, and some will even come as world drops. This variety of sources means that regardless of the activities that a player wishes to engage with, there is almost always the opportunity for them to earn customizations for their dragons.

One final thing to mention is that there is some room to customize the performance of a dragon through the Dragonriding skill tree. Indeed, there are a couple multiple-choice nodes within the tree, giving players a bit of flexibility with how they use their Dragon Glyphs in WoW's Dragonflight expansion. This does not alter the aesthetic of the dragons in any way, though, which is why it is only touched upon briefly in this guide.

World of Warcraft : Dragonflight is now available for PC.
