So I know normally we keep all the items that we obtain at the end of the season unless it’s specific to a seasonal theme however Since effectively we’re turning any item we and view to a prime Do we know what’s going to happen to the items at the end of the season do we just keep them as primals or what ?
I mean I know it’s legacy and it doesn’t necessarily matter but still bit still burst season back in a while so I was just curious
The only thing we know is that we won’t be keeping sanctified items or crucibles once the season ends.
Season Theme Details:
- Angelic Crucibles and Sanctified items can only be acquired in Seasonal play and will not transfer to your non-seasonal character when the season ends.
Taken from:
As for what happens to Sanctified items upon the season’s end, I doubt they’ll simply turn into normal primals, and instead I believe they’ll just disappear. As I imagine that if sanctified items did turn into normal primals, the developers would inform us in the patch notes with a simple “Angelic Crucibles and Santified items can only be acquired in seasonal play and Angelic Crucibles will not transfer to your non-seasonal character when the season ends, while Sanctified items will turn into ancient primal legendaries.”.
As such, when the current season draws close to it’s end, I simply recommend either salvaging any sanctified items you have and/or using any sanctified puzzle rings in kanai’s cube.
A sanctified item is flagged as sanctified and not ancient, primal, or whatever so the code is very likely written to simply delete items with this flag on season end, saving any additional “effort” needed to do such manually. The source likely exists already (from Ethereals and blood shards) and they merely changed it to point at the new flag.
It’s simple; unless you need an item gone by end of the season, don’t apply crucible on them. Just target regular non-Ancient, regular quality items and you’ll be fine.
Best thing, d/e all your sanctified items for random materials. If you have extra dust and puzzle rings, make and run ancient vaults. After the puzzle rings, if you still have any dust, sanctify random legendaries that were going to get d/e’d anyway at the blacksmith. Might as well get something out of it.
It wouldn’t be great if they just turned into normal primals and carried over. Fun yeah but how easy would that make it to have full primal builds on non season then.
