Shards

Shards are the main (and only) currency of the game shard Seekers. You can buy characters and pets with them.

How to get shards:


 * You can follow streaks of light that fall from the sky to find shards, which appear as large glowing crystals
 * Using flying characters to seek shards they move faster than most land characters.

Fallen shards
Shards will occasionally fall to the ground, signified by a beam of light.

There are six colors of shards that will land on the map (ordered by rarity): white, yellow, purple, blue, red, and black.

You can get up to around 30 shards per fallen shard (on average, a newly fallen shard will give 3-8 shards, but larger ones usually give an average of 9-16 shards).

The colors of fallen shards do matter. White, yellow, and sometimes purple and blue shards give a less amount than the Red and Black shards. They give at least 1-30 shards.

When collected, they disappear.

Multiple players can collect the same fallen shard.

Over time, uncollected shards will shrink, losing value until eventually disappearing for good.

There is an animation when others collect shards; light-colored beams go into them.

Helping other players shard seek by giving them rides now gives the helper bonus shards. Once the bonus shard bar fills up, the helper will receive 25% of the shards they helped the other person collect.

Purchasing shards
Shards can be purchased using Robux. This is optional and all pets can be unlocked if you put in the time and effort.
