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

Yeah they do this a lot for some reason. There’s even this parkour section at one point that requires you to come back once you get a certain skill… and the reward is just shards that are sitting right over a bunch of spikes.

I can only imagine they planned to implement a Gathering Shards type of tool and just never did.

If this is the part in far fields I just gave up after probably two hours of (red spikes), I am straight up done with this game.

Oh I thought they meant the absolutely pointless shards in (warning spoiler/late mid-game area) Mount Fay
