If that was true X’era would not have had to wait until we literally put her back together.
Well, she was able to communicate with us long before we put her physical shell back together so
Xe’ra didn’t die when she sent Light’s Heart to Azeroth, she was just weakened. But she did die when Illidan jobbed her. Blizzard should’ve put more thought into that character than “muh edginess”.

Well, depending on what dying actually means for a naaru.
Illidan destroyed her core with his eyebeam, which seems to be what has to be destroyed to kill a Naaru. It shows how desperate a gamble Xe’ra took to expose her core to such unprotected conditions. If the Legion had found it first that would been game over.
That undermines the idea that Xe’ra could return to the Light or even come back.
From what BatBoy the Betrayer did to her… there’s no coming back.

Omg I hate you. I have not thought about Batboy in a long time.
I remember Batboy used to scare me as a kid, and my older brother would chase me around with the picture they had in the Weekly World News, lol.

For you. And those not old enough to remember.

This is why you never reveal your weaknesses to the vicious forum jackals!
Until the writers decide there is, of course.
They’ll probably bring her alternate version the Light Mother back if they’re really that desperate to reuse Xe’ra again.

Hypothetically, if what Z’rali said was true that Naaru can change by absorbing too much of one cosmic force. Imagine a scenario where X’era comes back as a Fel Naaru because she absorbed too much Fel from Illidan’s eyebeam and in the Twisting Nether she met MU Eredar Y’rel, and they become the new leaders of the Burning Legion.

I imagine there is only one of all the cosmic/palanar entities for all timelines, just like there is only one legion, and one shadowlands.
True. But her alternate self is still alive, her soul didn’t combine with her MU counterpart for the time being 
Or, she has already regenerated and saw an opportunity to make a new Army of the Light on Alt Draenor after the other one (to her) failed.
Who knows though, when you muck about with cosmic planes outside normal causality things get funky.
It hurts my head thinking about it 
Zoomed in on combat mends my faith in the gods who choose to see the light.
She didn’t regenerate in AU Draenor, that’s an AU timeline decades in the past. Naaru don’t have their consciousness spread over multiple bodies in multiple dimensions like demons do.
By that time in the AU, AU Xe’ra would’ve already made the Army of the Light, as the AU Draenei had already reached Draenor, meaning AU Xe’ra had already met them and helped evacuate some from Argus, which is how the Army of the Light was formed.
Seriously, the more I think about WoD and this AU Draenei “Lightbound” story, the more I see how poorly written it is. Some fans don’t care about the slopply writing because they’ll take any excuse, no matter how flimsy or full of holes, to “keep the war in warcraft”. Some just want to use these characters or groups as stand-ins to be the punching bags for their power fantasies (eg; Xe’ra stands in for a person’s mother or school teacher).
The MU Army of the Light was a success. She might’ve even foresaw her death on Argus.
She definitely did not regenerate there no, but I guess she could of traveled there after she did. The whole thing is a bit shaky lorewise but I guess it could of happened.
AU Draenor in general is a headache, though.
