Players will Earn a Spark of Shadowflame Every Two Weeks in Season 2 - No Random Bottled Essences

Spark of ShadowflameIon's Explanation

Ion Hazzikostas

Season 2 sparks are one every two weeks, starting with the start of this season, and that will continue forever. There isn't the "you hit your cap, and now good luck winning the lottery getting extra ones," it's just one every two weeks.

As far as Season 1 Sparks go, the quest to earn the original five still exists, but no more Bottled Essences will drop past that. Season 1 Sparks can still be used to craft Season 1 gear, which you can then recraft to Season 2, or you can just make Season 2 gear straight up.

It's one every two weeks. You get a half every week, so you'll get your first half next week, your second half the first week of Season 2.

Comment by dlbert2000Thank god. So many annoying features being fixed in 10.1 its insane. Now we just need creation catalyst to come sooner than halfway into the tier 🤔Comment by 2428144This is sick! Now please fix Havoc ST, the class is hurting bad. Also veng does exist in case blizz forgot about it.Comment by TOMRUSOh look another timegate... What else to expect from Blizzard...Comment by arison255Oh look another timegate...

(You don't have to, but I'm a min maxer and wanted to get every little bit of DPS during prog when we started extending ID's)

I currently have 13 Spark-crafted items (14 Sparks total) on my main because I was grinding Rares every single day until I could no longer get upgrades from 418 item level profession gear.

Would be nice if two-handed weapons would also only cost 1 Spark at this point. It's extremely unfair having to wait twice as long. Especially as fury.

Good change.Comment by elicieOh look another timegate... What else to expect from Blizzard...Comment by PerrycoxOh look another timegate... What else to expect from Blizzard...Comment by SquishyyRandom drops were rubbish, i got more from the weekly quests, good riddance.
They really ought to make this better for fury warriors though... not really fair.Comment by elicieRandom drops were rubbish, i got more from the weekly quests, good riddance.
