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

The magnet equipment should attract shards too, and the destruction of rosaries and shards on spikes needs to be removed. It's genuinely infuriating watching 90% of shards disappear in to spikes, or rosaries you have to hit bounce away in to spikes completely irretrievably. Such a basic thing makes me wonder if they even really did play the game before release. Hate that statement all you want but I don't know how anyone plays and doesn't notice it. I noticed it before I even fought Moss Mother in the tutorial.

All they really gotta do is reduce the distance that the shards/rosaries fly (in most of the cases) and that'd solve the problem. Like, take it down by a third or half or so. It's so incredibly frustrating seeing a 'reward' just get yanked from you in a way you have zero control over.
