Does anyone find that there are too many soul shard but too little hellforge ember?
Further, what can we do for the surplus soul shard.
If your’re getting too many soul shards, just salvage the surplus. You’ll get either 3x imperial or 1 flawless royal gem of random type.
I think it’s somewhat fair that embers are rare. Remember that you can use shards to augment gear and maxed shard gives rank 125 augment. If embers were more common, getting augments would be a bit too easy.

I already have 625 DEX augments on all my DH’s gear, with around 10 Rank 3 soul shards in the Stash ready and waiting for any upgrades I find. Once players get up to speed-running GRs the embers seem to be reasonably plentiful.

This is entirely truthful. I actually ended up salvaging almost a whole stash tab of extra soul shards (since i early stocked believing that I’d be needing them all.) The gems are nice to get since the augments themselves are so easy and quick to apply.
I got plenty of both, what I dont have is the ones I need for my builds.
I made one that is almost perfect I thought, but when I saw the ones on the leaderboard it was good but not perfect…
Need to do more hunting for the one… or the three…
I’m assuming that while shards drop pre-70, embers do not, correct?
Correct.

They seem to be pretty plentiful for me. My only problem, Sliver of Terror wants to roll with strength instead of Dexterity. I’ve gotten a dozen of strength rolls and All Resist, but only one with Dexterity. Oh well, it’s still pretty early.

The first month has not even ended yet. And atleast two more to go, by the end of the seson you’ll have so much embers and shards leveld up, you won’t know what to do whit them. Patience and grind, grind, grind.
I have gotten over 50 embers so I think there are plenty.
And while I have been playing more early this season than normal, it is not those crazy hours some others put in.
Also, I found that more seem to drop in groups than solo. Not sure if that is just psychological or not.

I’ve found enough Embers to rank up the two shards I am currently using to 3, 3 others to 3 for augments, and still have around 10 in my inventory just waiting to be used. So, that’s about 25 or so.
I have 11 on my DH and working on the two rings.
It has only been 10 days so far. LOL
same here… I have roll 10 of them, all STR…

You know the funny part of all of this. If people stop racing through the game and did a little more killing and exploring they might have more hell-forge embers. You can get them from all most anything.
OH that is right people don’t do that, but come here to cry I’m not get enough of them.

I got two from a T16 chest in Vidian’s temple (Temple of the Firstborn?)
Loot = good.
I kind of complained about this early on, mostly because of the amount of space they end up taking in stash (I understand why they don’t stack, but I still wish they did).
Once you start doing GR90+ you’ll see the embers far more frequently, not like 1 per GR but close.
