I’ve always had a thing for vampires and the lore as it is interpreted in all sorts of games. With the upcoming season 2, is there any chance that abilities or powers may be kept and moved to the eternal realm (mainly to be used in future characters)?
I’m still getting used to the idea of seasons, and are not opposed to them. But I guess my question is… Does any season ability or power transfer to eternal after the season is done?
Also. As a side. I would have loved to have had a permanent class like the vampire knight from Immortal.

Typically no. Season 1’s Hearts will go away forever, and Season 2’s Vampiric power will also go away once the season ends.
That being said the devs have mentioned it will be on a case by case basis, and where something is well received and makes sense to implement into eternal realm they’ll consider it. So we may eventually get something similar coming to eternal realm but not the vampiric powers, for now.

Yes you can, bosses should stay forever. So lord whoever tf. Yeah he will be here.

I don´t know how many time devs said seassonal power is for seassons. You can see how it works with S1. Yet there are still someone who will ask like that 
Go watch some Twilight or something.

after season 2 , i bet you will hate them…
Vampires have been around in the Diablo universe for a long while! They first showed up in Sanctuary in Diablo II. If you’re a lore nerd like I am, this might be an interesting read for you:

That said, while most of the Season of Blood content won’t be carried over, Lord Zir, our vampire boss, will be sticking around to feast on unsuspecting wanderers.

From the last campfire those devs seemed to really be invested into the game and making it better.
If the community absolutely loves the vampire stuff { and alot likely will } its a fair chance they might keep at least some of it.
Im neither here nor there as far as vampires but as strongly as you feel about vampires i feel about winter and underwater " stuff ". So i understand your passion and hope they keep some of it.

nope
they said nope to that too.
but i do agree that vampire knight would’ve be good for D4 in my opinion too
Playing a Necro blood build allows you to have your vampire fantasy, mostly.
Is this confirmation that the “big bad” for each season will become a farmable Uber for eternal and future seasons?
Cause the same seems to be happening with Varshan.

With targetable uniques later?
He may already have some, I’d have to review the stream 
He already has targetable uniques. I’m content! 
It doesn’t make sense that Lilith can’t drop uber uniques though. She’s harder so people may not farm her on blast, but the fact you can’t even get good loot feels pretty bad.
This might actually make sense. Assuming the new boss contains the newly introduced uniques for the season, not keeping them for Eternal afterwards would mean diluting the pool for existing bosses.
Not necessarily, no. What, if any, content will carry over between Seasonal and Eternal realms will always be on a case by case basis.
That’s a bit of a shame. It would be a neat way to preserve seasonal history without fully committing to keeping everything in Eternal. If a season didn’t have an end-boss that’s fine.

The (according to the stream anyway) new enemy types, with new attacks, behavior etc, wont even stay around?
Still feels like a waste of development resources 
It is one thing that borrowed powers go away, but the game is lacking on more interesting enemy combat behavior, which the devs also seemed to argue in their chat.

I’ll put your theory to a test, which Vampires you like the most: HoMM3, HoMM5, D2, D3, D4, Battle for Wesnoth ? 
I watched the stream as well and my take from what i heard was that the special powers will go away. Like the malignent hearts.
But wont the enemy types stick around ?
If not i agree all that work just to be washed away ssems like a waste, hopefully the enemy types will move to eternal also.

That’s why they have seasonal skins, wings, pets, items, accessories you can unlock.
They should make a vampire skins pack. A real one. People would buy that.

Nicely put, would be great if vampire infested zone would stay additionally to helltides, malignant zones would also be good addition, without the seasonal powers of course.
