Aberrus, The Shadowed Crucible is a new World of Warcraft: Dragoflight raid coming in the Embers of Neltharion update on May 2nd. Today, Blizzard announced more details about the new level 70 raid, along with unlock times and details on the new bosses.

Among the other bosses, you’ll find The Forgotten Experiments, which are some of the early forms of Neltharion’s experimentation in the creation of the dracthyr. Other enemies are represented by the Zaqali. There’s also the three-headed lava hydra, Magmorax. The final two bosses are particularly lore significant too.
