Clarifying a couple of points here.
Sparks are every 2 weeks starting tomorrow (half a spark per week), and there is a tutorial quest that grants an additional half spark. This means players can get their first full spark the same week as the release of the patch, and the second spark will be creatable on week 3 (the week after season 2 starts), etc.
For any characters that fall behind on Spark creation, extra Sparks have a higher chance to drop from sources like:
- M+ end-of-dungeon chests
- PvP Wins
- The new World Boss
- Your first time defeating the dragon boss of the Fyrakk Assault
- The public event Researchers Under Fire
- Niffen Cave Dives
- Aberrus raid bosses
until the character is caught up.

We’ve added some Arcane Mage tuning to tomorrow’s updates.
Mage
Arcane
- Vault of the Incarnates 2-Set bonus Arcane Blast now provides 3% critical strike chance per Arcane Charge (was 5%).
- Arcane Blast damage increased by 4%.
- Arcane Missiles damage increased by 5%.
- Developers’ notes: Heading into the Embers of Neltharion patch, Arcane’s 2-piece bonus from Vault of the Incarnates is performing better than intended.
