Based off past Diablo games only some things from seasons will be brought over if it is well liked enough like the Kanai Cube for D3

You tube diablo live stream

For the most part yes only the stand out ones stick around.

When the season ends, your season characters will transfer over to the eternal server along with all rewards you unlocked through the season.

So no, you won’t lose all your efforts when the season ends.

To be abused like always i’m guessing.

You will keep all the new gems on your seasonal character but they probably won’t move over the mechanic to get them. Not every seasonal mechanic gets saved and brought over to Eternal.

So when your character transfers to the Eternal realm it will have those new gems but the chances of them adding the mechanic to get new Malignant gems is pretty slim.

No, everything you get in the season will transfer over. Including those malignant gems and season uniques.

You’ll probably keep the malignant stuff but there won’t be any way to get more of them

Once the Season has ended, the character you made and its progress will be transferred to the Eternal Realm . All items you collected, including in your Seasonal stash , will be transferred too. You can take this character into Sanctuary whenever you please, but Season-specific features such as Malignant Hearts will no longer be accessible.

no, they will not, malignant gems will not transfer over, and your character will get a scroll of amnesia to respec it completely since the gems are gone.

What the hell are you talking about? Who said that the malignant gems will vanish after season ends?

And that scroll of amnesia is a separate item that will allow players to respec their toons easier.

ummm, the diablo 4 developers?

Please note that Malignant Hearts are not the gems, they are the items you click on to summon the mobs you have to defeat to get the gems.

Or that is what I got from the dev chat.

that live stream made it pretty clear. Unless they fall in love with some new added mechanic, it would not make it to eternal. Not that socketable aspects are any huge loss anyway?

you misunderstood.

at timestamp 49.05 in the livestream they clearly say “you take these MALIGNANT HEARTS you socket them into your jewelry”. so, a malignant mob drops a heart, the heart spawns another mob, which drops a malignant heart which you socket into your jewelry, but malignant hearts will not come to eternal, so all socketed gems become useless. and will need to be replaced to make a playable character, which is why they give you a scroll of amnesia to respec your character to a playable state.

Meaning, only the stand-out seasonal mechanics - that truly work for gameplay overall - will ever make it in the long run to Eternal.

On that note, it’s a great way from a developer standpoint to find out what ‘works’ for overall gameplay in the long run and what doesn’t. I won’t go into it too far, and some will disagree, but it sometimes feels like public testing en masse with new features they want to roll out in the long run. Whether factual or not, I leave that to you to decide.

Some seasons are unquestionably better than others.

Imagine how bloated and busted Eternal would be if they added every last seasonal mechanic to it after like 20 seasons? Dear god lol
