Mythic Uniques in Lord of Hatred

By the DiabloBytes team · Updated May 2026

Lord of Hatred adds new Mythic Uniques including El'druin, Sword of Justice and the Seal of Royal Grandeur Mythic Seal, and rebalances the existing Mythic pool. Season 13 awards up to 14 Resplendent Sparks across the Season of Reckoning journey and challenge tiers, and per-Mythic craft cost is 2 Sparks at the Jeweler.

⚡ TL;DR

El'druin, Sword of Justice — Skill Cooldown reduction after elite kills; useful for cooldown-gated builds.
Seal of Royal Grandeur — Mythic Seal that reduces charm pieces needed to complete a set by 1.
Up to 14 Resplendent Sparks in S13 — across journey and challenge tiers. 2 Sparks per Mythic craft (down from 4) — up to 7 Mythics craftable.
Treasure Goblin bags from Echoing Hatred deep waves are the in-mode primary Mythic source.

Mythic Charm Discovered — Heir of Perdition

A Mythic-rarity Charm version of Heir of Perdition has surfaced in Season 13 via a Reddit screenshot in r/D4Barbarian (u/Jcanlas88) and follow-up YouTube footage. This is significant because the community consensus through the first three weeks of S13 was that mythic unique charms — despite being datamined — were either disabled or held back for a future patch. The new screenshot and clip suggest at least one Mythic Charm is live.

Type: Ancestral Mythic Charm (slots into the outer ring of the Talisman, not the head slot — distinct from the Mythic Helm version listed below)
Reported effect: Grants the Mother's Favor buff, with up to ~80% increased damage while active. Also rolled with Bonus Kill Experience and Maximum Life on early screenshots.
Reported drop source: War Plans final reward turn-in at Tyrael in Temis (player's War Plans were at tier 8/10, charm dropped directly to ground, not from a cache). A secondary outlet also lists Kurast Undercity reward rotations as a possible source — neither has been independently confirmed.

Important caveat: Drop conditions are not independently confirmed by Blizzard or by multiple builds. Icy Veins' primary report explicitly disclaims the drop conditions. Sample size is one screenshot and one short video clip. Treat this as a lead, not a recipe — do not reorganize your endgame routing around it yet.

We'll update this section as more confirmations roll in or as Blizzard speaks to it directly.

Lord of Hatred Mythics

El'druin, Sword of Justice

1H Mythic Sword

Tyrael's blade, added with Lord of Hatred.

Effect: Defeating an Elite pack reduces your Skill Cooldowns by 10 seconds for 12 seconds. Indestructible. Pairs into cooldown-gated builds that chain Elite kills.

Class fit: Usable by all classes; favored by cooldown-gated builds.

Drops from: Lair Boss Mythic pool, Echoing Hatred, Resplendent Spark crafting.

Seal of Royal Grandeur

Mythic Seal (Talisman)

Talisman-slot reimagining of the iconic D3 ring.

Effect: Reduces the number of charm pieces required to complete a set by 1. A 5-piece set activates at 4 charms; a 3-piece set activates at 2 charms — enabling dual full-set configurations.

Class fit: Universal — any build running two set configurations on the Talisman.

Drops from: Mythic Seal pool. Drops only at Torment X and above. Mephisto in The Birthplace (Skovos Isles) is a reliable target. Spark crafting alternative.

Ring of Starless Skies

Mythic Ring

Existing Mythic ring carried into Lord of Hatred.

Effect: Spending your Primary Resource reduces the Resource cost of your Skills and increases your damage by 10% for 3 seconds, stacking up to 50%.

Class fit: Usable by all classes.

Drops from: Lair Bosses (Belial highest odds), Echoing Hatred, Resplendent Spark crafting.

Heir of Perdition

Mythic Helm

Existing Mythic helm.

Effect: Grants stacks of Mother's Favor, increasing damage to enemies per stack. Also deals increased damage to Angels and Demons. Includes Critical Strike Chance, Lucky Hit Chance, Movement Speed and +2 to Core Skills.

Class fit: Usable by all classes.

Drops from: Lair Bosses, Resplendent Spark crafting.

Shroud of False Death

Mythic Chest

Existing Mythic chest, reworked in Lord of Hatred.

Class fit: Usable by all classes.

Drops from: Lair Bosses, Resplendent Spark crafting.

Banished Lord's Talisman

Unique Amulet

Existing Unique Amulet, reworked in Lord of Hatred.

Effect: After you spend 275 of your Primary Resource, gain 4 stacks of Overpower. Your Critical Strikes that Overpower deal increased damage per stack of Overpower.

Class fit: Builds that spend large amounts of primary resource and want Overpower scaling.

Drops from: Endgame loot at Torment difficulty (Pit, Nightmare Dungeons, Helltides, World Bosses). Horadric Cube Item Transmutation can also roll a random Unique Amulet.

Resplendent Spark Sources

Resplendent Sparks are the targeted-craft currency. After the Lord of Hatred update, 2 Sparks at the Jeweler (plus specific Runes for a targeted craft) = 1 chosen Mythic Unique. Season 13's journey grants the widest Spark allowance of any season:

Source	Amount	Notes
Season journey + challenges	Up to 14 Resplendent Sparks	Per launch coverage, the Season of Reckoning provides 3 Sparks across the core Season Journey ranks plus additional Sparks via the deeper challenge tiers — up to 14 total when all objectives are completed. The widest Spark allowance to date.
Lair Boss drops	Variable	Andariel, Duriel, Belial, Tormented variants. Higher Torment tier = better Mythic odds. Belial has the highest Mythic Unique drop rate of any Lair Boss.
Echoing Hatred Treasure Goblins	Variable, deep-wave bonus	Treasure Goblin bags from Echoing Hatred runs are confirmed primary Mythic Unique source. Kill every Goblin you see in a run regardless of Overwhelm bar pressure.
Crafting (Jeweler / Blacksmith)	2 Sparks per Mythic	Following the LoH update, Mythic crafts cost 2 Resplendent Sparks (not 4). Targeted crafting at the Jeweler also requires specific Runes. Use this to target the specific item your build wants.

Spark Spending Strategy

1
Craft your build-defining mythic first The gear-shape change unlocks aspects, glyphs, and rotation. Save the rest for later.
2
Don't craft what drops easily Ring of Starless Skies and Heir of Perdition drop reasonably from Lair Bosses. Save Sparks for harder targets.
3
Save Sparks for the new LoH-exclusive mythics El'druin and Seal of Royal Grandeur are good candidates for Spark crafting if you can't target-farm them.
4
Stockpile Treasure Goblin Echoing Hatred bags Open the bags only when you have build-confidence — they may roll a Mythic that changes your build direction.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many Resplendent Sparks does a Mythic Unique cost?

2 Sparks per Mythic craft after the Lord of Hatred update — half the previous 4-Spark cost. The Season of Reckoning rewards up to 14 Sparks across the Season Journey and challenge tiers, enough for up to 7 Mythic crafts. Targeted crafting at the Jeweler also requires specific Runes.

What is the best new Mythic Unique in Lord of Hatred?

El'druin, Sword of Justice is a new Mythic — Tyrael's blade reimagined as a 1H sword. Defeating an Elite pack briefly reduces all Skill Cooldowns, which benefits cooldown-gated builds. Seal of Royal Grandeur is a Mythic Seal that reduces the number of charm pieces needed to complete a set by 1, enabling dual-set Talisman configurations.

Where do Mythic Uniques drop?

Lair Bosses (Andariel, Duriel, Grigoire, Varshan, Tormented variants) are the primary boss-source. Echoing Hatred deep-wave Treasure Goblin bags are confirmed primary in-mode source. Mythic Seals drop more starting at Torment 10+. Resplendent Spark crafting at the Horadric Cube is the targeted-drop alternative.

Should I save Sparks or craft early?

Craft your build-defining mythic first — the gear-shape change unlocks the rest of the build. After that, save Sparks for the marquee mythics in the Lair Boss pool that you can't target-farm efficiently (El'druin, Seal of Royal Grandeur).
