Dinar Datamined in Season 4 - Suggests Total Cap of One
We've datamined the return of Dinar in Dragonflight Season 4! Used to deterministically purchase just a couple pieces of rare or important pieces of raid loot like trinkets and cantrip weapons, Dinar were added in Season 4 as a form of bad luck protection within the accelerated season of rotating raid content that wouldn't necessarily give players as many chances to earn those crucial items.

Total Cap: 1
Weekly Cap: 0
Though we don't yet have any details on how the currency will be acquired just yet, it's safe to bet that they will be earned through a weekly quest to defeat bosses, similar to Shadowlands. Interestingly, the string also indicates a cap of one as opposed to three in Shadowlands, although it is unclear if that is a reduction of the total number that players will earn or a temporary cap that increments over time.
Game Director Ion Hazzikostas previously confirmed that the deterministic system would return in Dragonflight, though also shared that the popular system was a little too generous to include across all seasons/raids within the game.

Replying to the top comment so this hopefully gets seen — there's a misunderstanding/misinterpretation here. Not sure if I misunderstood the question or the summary was inaccurate, but either way:
There will absolutely be a Dinar-type system in Dragonflight S4. We don't think it was too generous in SL — it worked great. I was commenting on what I thought was a question about introducing that system more broadly across all seasons/raids, and in that context, while we do want to keep exploring fallback mechanisms for mitigating bad RNG, that shouldn't invert things to the point where a vendor becomes the default/expected way of getting your BiS PvE items every season.
Apologies for any confusion here. Read more on wowhead.com
