Diablo Immortal legendary crests will get a visual redesign to help differentiate them from the paid eternal legendary crests in an attempt to address concerns about ‘hidden’ monetisation mechanics in the fantasy game. Players have previously complained that Diablo Immortal’s eternal legendary crests – which can only be bought with real money and allow earned gems to be traded on the in-game market – bear almost identical resemblance to the lesser ‘regular’ legendary crests.

Furthermore, eternal legendary crests can only be bought as a standalone item in the in-game store – meaning that, because of their nearly identical designs, some players felt they had been tricked into buying real-money item bundles believing they were getting the eternal crests, when in fact the bundles contained standard legendary crests that only drop bound gems instead of tradeable ones.

Diablo Immortal lead designer Wyatt Cheng responded to a post on the game’s subreddit showing a new crest design. Cheng says that a change is in the works that will see the standard legendary crest revamped to a new, orange look instead of its purple one. The eternal legendary crest, Cheng explains, will retain its current purple design, while the non-eternal legendary crest will now have a distinct shape with an orange face.
