Is Augmentation Spec confirmed?

Likely a fake image, but if legitimate, it would pretty much supplant the speculation of a third spec. If we get the broken version from Sarkareth, all of the lore hinting toward a third spec could just as easily feed into a questline with Emberthal and Adamanthia empowering this new legendary with a support-themed proc.

This is actually a smart plot. The Incarnates want to stop the work of the Titans. Well the best way to do it is to go back in time and stop it before it happens. Which would lead us straight to Galakrond.

Would be kind of amusing if it blows up in their face, we never actually fight them and Galakrond just devours them.

Could be a nice story - they think the titans are so bad and everything before them was great, so they go back to retrieve Galakrond (who is revealed to have been somehow infused with the element of Decay, thus making him a sort of proto-incarnate), only to realize that Galakrond isnt interested in them or their cause in the slightest, that hes just a raving monster who would devour them and everyone else until no living being was left on the planet.

I want Galakrond to spit out undead dragons just like in lore.

This is actually quite hilarious.
Especially when literally nobody actually even considered that a possibility before.

[Varodoc]

Dun Dun Duuuuun.

This is actually quite hilarious.

Why would anyone not take that into consideration when that's literally what happened with Wrathion too in Ny'alotha?

Especially since this raid and this entire storyline are clearly Void-oriented, as they delve deeper into the corruption of Neltharion at the hands of the Old Gods.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

There are no Old Gods in Dragonflight.

I mean... I suppose I never considered it a possibility because I considered it a forgone conclusion. Wouldn't be the first time an agent of the Void - inexorably tied to the Black Dragonflight - posed as a member of that flight.

Can't see what it is. Want to give the basic gist of what happens?

Hate to say it, but I agree with the Void supremacist. It's about the Black Dragonflight. Shadowflame. Deathwing's Legacy. Was anyone not expecting the Void to not appear?

The Echo is a Faceless One.

Ahh. That's a bit boring honestly. Don't see why it couldn't just be a simulacrum like what Sindragosa had. Neltharions probably would have wanted a lab partner, and who better to trust with his deepest secrets than himself.

Still, i guess it works better with the whole descent into madness theme we have going up to Sarkareth.

Trying to avoid too many spoilers. But i assume you are talking about The Dracthyr lady? (I can never remember her name honestly. I always just think of my own Dracthyr alts name)

Damn you are right. I'll put it in spoilers. And yes.
Feel free to put in spoilers in your quote as well.

Ok, i'm not saying that nobody was expecting a void servant to appear, i'm saying its funny that most people, on twitter, reddit, here and the forums just kinda took that specific NPC at face value, to be some sort of Simulacrum like Sindragosa or residual essence/echo like the Shade of Medivh/Echo of Aegwynn etc.

No fucking shit that inside a void raid, about a void servant, around void related enemies, with a void related final boss is gonna have void spawn in it.
The mere inclussion of a faceless one wasn't what was surprising to me.

Honestly with Aberrus I am just sad about all these poor people (and void monsters) that were trapped inside for 10 thousand years. Really Illidan is a wimp, at least he had someone to talk to.

Not a big shock honestly. Honestly kinda disappointed in myself for not thinking she would be a good candidate earlier than I did. It seems so obvious in hindsight.

Then again, maybe she won't be Aspect, and all of this is a weird diversion until she has her heroic sacrifice or whatever.

[Cheezits]

I think the main takeaway is that the Echo was The Void manipulating Sarkareth to come down and get void corrupted, not so much an Echo of Nelathrion being Evil Neltharion. Shines some doubt on whether or not he was always an asshole, as people have been griping about, since the Echo is not authentic
