D2 Survivors mark D2 SURVIVORS

D2 Survivors imbue

I put the changelog sentence next to the client string instead of smoothing them into one rule. Both were public on 2026-10-28. I did not click Imbue in a client.

What the two sources say

Build 20261016.11 says Charsi sells ranks past the maximum, and imbues rares. The public client string says Imbue it into a rare. I can say the result is described as a rare. I cannot say it copies the classic white-item-only rule from Diablo II, because neither source spells that out.

The Horadric Malus pays for one imbue. While you carry it, Charsi shows an exclamation mark, and the shop text says it pays for an imbue. Builds 20261018.1, 20261022.3, 20261023.2, and 20261023.3 place a blacksmith by the town portal in each act.

This is not the charm window

Imbue is a shop action. Charms are a separate 20-slot window. Mixing the two searches is easy because they sit near each other in Diablo II. The window itself is documented on the charms page.
