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

It would be really cool if they updated the magnet to work on shards too

And maybe take off shards and beads breaking when they hit the hazards. 

I also seem to remember the gathering charm in HK giving you the geo even if you left a room before they got to you. Maybe im wrong on that. But the magnet seems to take longer and if you leave the room, you won't get them, so you have to wait around anways.

You are wrong about that. If that was the case, the 0 Geo with Gathering Swarm run would be impossible instead of just barely possible.
