They need to be added to the seals vendor

Happy farming

Bilethorn is from no interest for a warlock, but my GWF might benefit... sadly he is inactive and invoking all day.
If only i had bought those shards to spread (sell) them to the needy

Bilethorn drops from celedrine in Sharandar gate 3 I believe

No. Elven Battle.

Anyone else notice that the AH prices for bilethorn shards are being marked up? Buyer beware, I think multiple people are buying up shards and reselling at a hefty markup (also the actual enchants, which are up 50%+ since last week)?

That's why people are asking where you can farm them.

They aren't available for seals, and the enchant has never been in a lockbox. But since Bile is supposedly gonna be the new hotness, up goes the price.

Came out of somewhere because I've got one that I didn't buy.

They randomly drop in Tiamat and from the DR epic gauntlet, but you cannot reliably farm them. You could run Tiamat 'til you want to regurgitate your lunch and hope you get lucky.

Mine wasn't a shard. It was a full-blown enhancement.

Nothing predating these dropped anything but lockbox-exclusive enchants.
Black Earth - Bronzewood/Barkshield
Eternal Flame - Flaming/Fireburst
Crushing Wave - Frost/Frostburn
Howling Hatred - Lightning/Thunderhead
Glorious Resurgence (1st iteration) - assortment of lockbox-exclusive items
New Life - Lifedrinker/Bloodtheft
Shaundakul - Terror/Negation
Firemane - Shadowclad/Dread
Runic - Lightning/Frostburn
Giants - Frost/Thunderhead

This is weird because I thought Holy Avenger also got cheap for a while due to a lockbox, but I can't find any evidence of it. And I don't think Resurgence has had its own packs since the first time.

So... the current enchant rework started with making further improvements to Flaming and Bark... which suggests they are likely to be found in the impending Many-Starred Lockbox.

In turn, this means that the next combination is highly likely to be Bronzewood and Fireburst (though necessary adjustments to Bronzewood were put on the back burner), if they are just recombining enchants from prior boxes, which is how it looks.

Missing are Elven Battle, Soulforged, Briartwine (which needs work), Holy Avenger, Vorpal, Feytouched, Bilethorn. If we get more repeats before we get these, that's honestly pretty lame. Many can be farmed or bought with seals, but the inaccessibility of Bilethorn is problematic. I think I've also recently run across Briartwine not being on the seal vendor because someone was asking about it.

(Edit: fixed an instance of wrong enchant name)

Wow. I just got one with the DR lair purple glove. Selling it at current market value of 24K AD. That's nuts if it sells.

I have a stack of them. It is good to be a hoarder. Maybe the prices will come down when people realize that the DoT is delayed and that things will likely be killed by a CW with Lightning before the DoT kicks in.

Ironic, isn't it? My Spellstorm Oppressor CW has a trans lightning purely because I at first wanted to experiment with lightning way back in mod 5 for Tiamat runs. Up to now, the damage was underwhelming, but I kept it because the effect is cool and I don't play my CW all that often (people only want DPS nowadays, and I built Miri back in the mod 3 days when CC was hugely important). It will be interesting to see if the damage outweighs the nuisance of its extremely long reach and propensity to aggro things that I don't want it to.
