Soul Shards can drop from any type of content and game mode, be it Bounties, Nephalem (Standard) Rifts, or Greater Rifts.

Lastly, Soul Shards and Hellforge Embers can only drop in Seasonal play and will not transfer to non-seasonal characters once Season 25 ends.As a base drop, they are equal to a level 50 Legendary Gem, and are upgraded by 25 levels per Shard rank (i.e., Rank 3 Soul Shard is equal to a Level 125 Legendary Gem for the purposes of Caldesann augmentation). Soul Shards can used in the Caldesann's Despair recipe instead of regular Legendary Gems.Soul Shards can be salvaged into 3 random gems of Marquise or Imperial quality, with a minor chance to give 1 Flawless Royal gem instead.Each Soul Shard can be upgraded 3 times using a new, seasonal-exclusive consumable, the Hellforge Ember.You may only equip one Prime Evil Soul Shard and one Lesser Evil Soul Shard at a time.Lesser Evil Soul Shards (Dregs of Lies, Essence of Anguish, Remnant of Pain, Stain of Sin) are only socketable in Weapons.Prime Evil Soul Shards (Fragment of Destruction, Shard of Hatred, Sliver of Terror) are only socketable in Helms.Regardless of their differences, they share a few common mechanics: Season 25 introduces a new type of socketable item called Soul Shards.
