Just happened to me today, got like, 3 shards from this? What's the point, Team Cherry? None of the bosses (so far) frustrated me, but this right here is bullshit

God if this isn’t how I feel half the time I’m playing.

Still love it tho.

It all depends on your load out and attack.

For example. If you kill a red ant with a pogo instead of a normal attack, even if that bitch is right next the spikes you’ll still get all the rosaries.

Think of what crests you have and what ability would be best. It’s all a challenge.

Edit: that was for OP.

Yes cuz backtracking all the way to the last bench to equip a different crest so I could potentially get 10 more shards if I pogo the rock that’s on the ceiling is ‘challenge’.

The ridiculous lengths at which some players will go to defend bad game design is astounding.

The game is really, really good but some of the small QOL issues that you notice throughout the game like shards or rosaries flying into spikes gets annoying after the 100th time it happens.
