As season 4 will include another power increase (M0 -> 262, Fated raid -> 278/291/304), how about Tier sets and / or Shards of Domination?
Will Tier sets drop? Will they only drop from Sepulcher or also in the other raids? Will there be Shard items?

Thats good question what about tier set. Shards are goin to back ?
I've read that shards will not be usable in fated/don't come back. So that people do not have to go after those once again, just for this single raid.
I don't know the link/source where I've seen that, so take it with a grain of salt.
As Tiersets are not only available via Raid, why should they not be able to drop? We have a crafting system using the itemlevel of the "used" item.
Shards are not coming back, as Blizz said. That would be ridiculous, 4 tier pieces + 5 shard pieces + 2 leggos.
Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

Timewalking Raids already drop non-Tier versions of former Tier items, I would assume the same for items with Domination Sockets - same name, same stats, but no socket.
But obviously, as already speculated, you'd be able to use loot from Fated Raids with the Creation Catalyst to apply Tier.
Sure, but only the items from one of the three Fated Raids have Domination Sockets, that would make people focus on that raid alone
But your duty to Azeroth is not yet complete. More is demanded of you... a price the living cannot pay.
Yeah, it's problematic because the Domination system was crap. Could be fixed if they wanted to fix it though. Let the raid drop the shards at max rank so people don't have to look for them and instead of items with sockets they could just add consumables that add sockets instead.

Only one raid is up at any time anyway.
People will bitch about how alt unfriendly WoW is, and then mention how epic it would be to have to farm tier sets and domination sockets + gems in the next sentence.
Catalyst and vault would fix tier set drop anyway. This should not be a problem imo.
But see, that's the issue. Let's say that CN and SoD are the first 2 raids to be available as Fated in season 4.
Any ilvl upgrade you get in a tier slot will literally just take up bagspace until Blizzard unlocks the Catalyst.
Obviously no use worrying about it at this point since we've realistically no way of knowing until season 4 begins, but the fact that the scenario even has to be considered is testament to Blizzard's stubbornness in game design.
