Iridikron & Fallout from Galakrond's Demise Faced in Dawn of the Infinite Mega-Dungeon in Patch 10.1.5

Posted 2023/05/11 at 12:37 PM by Jaydaa

I’ve removed the reference for now since it’s not directly about facing Galakrond but facing the fallout from Galakrond’s demise. We’ll share more details about the mega-dungeon a bit later in development in a stand-alone article.

Comment by SvanDarkdope af, i'm so excited for thisComment by justkbmtPlease blizzard, for the love of god don't do galakrond dirty and kill em off in the dungeon. Bring his ass in a raid or something after he escapes.Comment by ZygosLikely it's us helping imprison him during the Dragon War, in the past, to prevent a dark future in which the incarnates won the war.Comment by DranlordPlease blizzard, for the love of god don't do galakrond dirty and kill em off in the dungeon.

That looks like trouble 👀Comment by ControladoGalakrond reduced to a dungeon boss, and no one talks about it.

Amazing stuff from the lore devs, as always.Comment by yanomamo89Part of me was hoping that Galakrond coming back would be a Raid thing not a dungeon :(Comment by GracelynWoWIf I had a nickel for every major antagonist reduced to a dungeon boss I'd probably have about 5 nickelsComment by WolfGuy100Holy...Galakrond is an ABSOLUTE UNITComment by GunganWarriorI'm calling it now Iridikron gets gobbled up by Galakrond after he goes through all the effort of reviving himComment by HranthaerPeople fail to realize this is in the past, so it's not likely our Iridikron. even if it is, blizz said it'd be clear who the final boss of the xpac would be by the end of the first raid, and it's pretty clear that they meant Iridikron at the timeComment by smookioI dont see a way to properly fight galakrond.... him being in a backround or smth is fine...

For those how do you imagine fighting galakrond? 5 boss fights
boss 1: Nail of galakrond
after you enter his blood stream
boss 2: blood of galakrond
boss 3: Antras the bakteria king?
boss 4: cancer of galakrond
boss 5: heart of galakrondComment by FelStormGalakrond reduced to a dungeon boss, and no one talks about it.

Amazing stuff from the lore devs, as always.Comment by ScrotaciousI'm kinda curious how it comes to pass that we fight Galakrond, he died a LOOOOOONG time ago.

An alternate timeline is sketchy because he should have starved to death long ago.

If it's time travel, then that wrecks the lore surrounding the forming of the Wrymrest Accord.Comment by NazamberMy theories that we will face them and we will find out that soul of Galakrond was locked into Iridkron's incarnate form and being the Primal Incarnate of Earth he will fuse with Galakrond ultimately reviving him.Comment by SilverizedWe won't fight galakrond apparentlyComment by goundinIts a timeline. He is dead in our timeline. We visit a timeline where he is still alive. If we kill him it will bear no consequence in our timeline.Comment by aquavenPlease blizzard, for the love of god don't do galakrond dirty and kill em off in the dungeon. Bring his ass in a raid or something after he escapes.Comment by FelweedHUGE UPDATE FROM BLIZZ stating that the Galakrond is already deadge in this time jump to the past (see this update at the top of the article as it's been updated as well):

"I’ve removed the reference for now since it’s not directly about facing Galakrond but facing the fallout from Galakrond’s demise. We’ll share more details about the mega-dungeon a bit later in development in a stand-alone article."

its an alternate timeline, hes already dead in ours. we are very likely to actually fight him for real later, ours, ressurected.
