V Rising Everything You Need To Know About Stygian Shards
By Xandria Morden|May 14, 2024|0 Comment
V Rising, the vampire Rust game has a ton of crafting aspects. Stygian shards is a new form of resource that is can be used for either crafting or a currency at certain places. Found exclusively in one area, Ruins of Mortium, these are fragments of Dracula’s Legacy.
The Stygian Shards drop from Rift Incursions. Incursion is a form of World Event that happens regularly. You can keep track of this event through the Eye of Mortium. The Incursions also spawn in two tiers. Tier 1 is for Level 57+ and Tier 2 is for Level 80+. The lower tier will drop the Stygian shards, and the higher one drops Greater Stygian shards.
You will have to head to one of these marked locations and head to the ritual areas where there will be three Vampire Cultists which have black tethers connecting them to a large Shadow Realm Rift above them. There will then be another tether pointing to a secondary location, in which Shadow Realm enemies will spawn out of an opening rift. Here you will need to defeat two spellcasters, they will be either a Night Maiden or Blood Prophet. They will spawn waves of enemies if you do not kill them, so focus them down ASAP. Once all the enemies are defeated, the rift will shatter , and it will rain Stygian Shards! Collect them and move on.
You will need to do this all over again for the second rift. After completing these two rifts, a third one will spawn in the main ritual site. For a Tier 1 Incursion a Lesser Blood Soul will spawn. You may find them familiar and that’s because they are! These enemies will always be a levelled up version of a V Blood boss you have fought before. When you defeat this enemy, you get 3 Health Orbs and the rift will close. Getting these shards are pretty. You just need to do them consistently.
You can find two merchants who will do business with you. The merchant in the South only accepts normal shards, whereas the one in the North will take the Greater ones. Both inventories are pretty much the same, with the Northern side selling stronger weapons of course. Here you will pick which weapon shard you wish to purchase, but the shard is a gamble itself.
One of the more valuable ways you can spend your shards is by using the Altar of Stygian Awakening. You can craft passive buffs that will affect your entire clan. All this is available by just spending your shards at the altar. Each type of magic has new abilities, and you have three tiers to choose from. All these passives just make your vamp more effective.
If you are looking to seek out specific loot, you can summon specific enemies at the Stygian Summoning Circle. Like all other crafting and refining stations, you will mix these shards with other ingredients for specific things.
