• The last reward from the Iron Wolves reputation grants a Resplendent Spark
• Special Seasonal-only Elixirs that are more powerful than normal, such as Elixir of Momentum, are confirmed by Blizzard to be debuting in Season 4
• Blizzard teased expanding the item crafting systems and adding more tiers to The Pit in the future — but not during Season 4
• «Visual noisiness and the amount of things you can spawn» have been reduced from the PTR
• Blizzard says it found «some aspects of The Pit were a little bit too easy.» As a result, monsters in The Pit will exceed level 199
• The cost to imprint Legendary Aspects has been «substantially reduced» from PTR levels — and salvaging items rewards more Veiled Crystal than we last saw
• The chance to fail Masterworking has been removed, at the cost of a «mildly increased amount of material requirements» for Masterworking costs
• The Elemental Surge Tempering affix has been nerfed, and has been adjusted «to be a real number now» — it was fun while it lasted!
• There have been no changes to Uniques — yet. Blizzard says it's «toying around» with the ability to Temper Unique items, or some other variant of crafting, in the future
