Changes Coming to Resplendent Sparks in Diablo 4 Season 5
Season 5 will be bringing a slew of changes to Diablo 4, and one change in particular will be a welcome change in how to acquire powerful materials for Mythic Unique crafting!
Currently, players earn one Resplendent Spark after defeating their first Tormented Boss in a given Season. This applies to both Hardcore and non-Hardcore characters, meaning players can only receive a single Resplendent Spark from this source per Season, regardless of the realm.
In other words, players would need to decide where they want to focus their seasonal efforts when it comes to grinding out the four Resplendent Sparks needed to craft a Mythic Unique at the Alchemist.
Season 5 is set to change this system, allowing players to earn one Resplendent Spark after defeating a single Tormented Boss for the first time separately for both Hardcore and non-Hardcore characters. This is a great change and will allow players more flexibility when deciding which realm to play in at the start of a season. Also, it feels more fair, so kudos to that!

On top of these changes, it appears our Pets will no longer be picking up certain items, emphasizing the moment of a drop for two significant item types. This begs the question of whether these item types now deserve a UX treatment for when they do drop, similar to how Mythic Uniques and Uniques have special audio cues and color highlights. For now though, it seems our Stash will be able to catch them.

Resplendent Sparks and Scattered Prisms will no longer be automatically picked up. Additionally, these items can now be found in the lost items Stash if forgotten when they drop.
