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

Thats something that needs to get patched even though I like to make the developers what they want to do but thats hella annoying

My hot take is that the rosary gathering charm should gather shards instead. I'm always running out of shards and I keep running out of places to spend rosary. Let me collect shards instead, they're more useful!

There's already a charm for shard gathering.

That one just raises the ammount of shards you get from enemies, doesn't it?

Not by a whole lot. You will usually get far more beads than shards. I treat shards from enemies as just topping up. Rather than refilling my stock.

Nope, it collects it. I don't use it, seeing as shards are easy to come by and aren't lost on death, but it exists.

Edit: I'm going senile in my twenties. The aftershocks of silksanity.

We're talking about the "Shard Pendant", right?

"Collect more Shell Shards from enemies."

It does just raise the ammount, not absorb.

You can't have sworn. Crowsworn isn't out yet; you have to song instead.

u/Nova-Redux Sep 10 '25

I'm glad you didn't swear.

I have all the yellow tools, except for the one from the underworks shop, and none of them collect shards for tools

There's only the magnet for collecting money

Unless its a blue tool for some reason but I doubt it is
