Everything PRISMATIC | Best Ways to Find Shards, BEST Uses and Farming Tips

[@Wickedy]

BlaDe really is the best! He pulled up some game files to share some info for all ya'll. According to the code, Prismatics shouldn't be able to drop from regular purple gem nodes, or trash cans. And, burglar ring worked on the drop% on mummies, serpents and shadows, but not for the "Any Monster" drop for shards. Thanks for the clarification!

[@ramtigerfalcon8387]

Wow. That's intricate coding from Master Ape. And genius Sleuthing from Master Blade. 😆

[@imacheckneck]

im pretty sure I got one from a purple gem node when I first unlocked the quarry, but it could've been a different node, I may be remembering wrong. I also use some mods, so 🤷‍♂ EDIT: NEVERMIND I CHECKED THE WIKI IT WAS A MYSTIC STONE LMAOO

[@slwrabbits]

I bet people are getting gem nodes and mystic nodes mixed up.

[@usernametaken017]

I got my first prismatic shard from the slimes in the secret woods. I didn't even know they dropped anything other than slime and seeds so I was very surprised lmao

[@TheIndigoRose]

Can confirm (at least for myself) Prismatic shards can be found in the trash. I don't know what magic luck monkey was sitting on my shoulder that day, but my last playthrough, I found one in Lewis's trash can in spring year one. I couldn't go to bed and save fast enough!

[@youremomlol2263]

so you wasted an entire day after finding it? what a loser

[@bruh10246]

A little bonus : the trash can loot is decided from the start of the game so no matter what time you're at you will get get it at Lewis's trash that day

[@chubbybunny6975]

Same here! I've gotten one from the trash, from a treasure chest, a green slime, etc. all really fun and weird ways! But I also got 5 garbage hats over the course of 2 days, and have seen the sea monster 3 days in a row before as well. So my luck is bugged tf out if you ask me lol

[@xndbase]

If you put a geode crusher in Clint’s shop and you get him to open up your omni geodes and get a prismatic shard, immediately stop Clint opening and place your next geode in the crusher and it was always be a prismatic shard. I have done this a number of times.

[@rambam791]

I second this :)

[@ramtigerfalcon8387]

I think Wickidy has mentioned this b4 as well. Could be wrong though.

[@victory8928]

Because the crusher is one drop behind clint’s.

[@Zombina638]

What

[@XtranCheiver]

​@@Zombina638Place a geode crusher in Clint's place, Get Clint to crush a geode and if you get a Prismatic shard, don't crush the remaining geodes and crush them in the geode crusher instead.

[@StormMartinEBFG]

I just started playing SV the other day (like, super newbie: currently in Fall of Year 1 on my very first play through) and got one from an Omni geode… and let’s just say I’m glad I watched one of your mistakes to avoid videos beforehand!

Playing on 1.6 now. I got all the way to Spring or Summer year 2 before finding my first one. I found it while collecting stone for a BB quest and got it in the quarry. FINALLY. Found 3 later on my first run to level 100 of the skull cavern while using magic rock candy.

[@2000seoulsonyosound]

I got my first one from a monster drop! I actually didn't even notice until I opened my inventory at home I was shook lol and it was right after getting the special charm

[@DesertWillow18]

I haven’t found a prismatic shard yet. But I took notes and am going to try them all until I find one.

[@iam_dabest1623]

My first prismatic shard came from a random mystic stone in the quarry that I broke while I was clearing it out. I literally had no idea they could spawn there so I was so suprised that I didn’t even do anything with it.. I just put it on display in my house. I found one again in the regular mines while looking for an ancient seed in the mines. How, you may ask? I killed a bug. On floor 10-15. Which has a 0.05% drop rate. Needless to say, I think I was happy with my luck that day seeing as I got the ancient seed I wanted shortly after

[@hopelessfool6722]

It’s pretty cheaty but you can actually multiply Shards (and a lot of objects) with a second player. If both players pick up the shard from a table at the same time it’ll be placed in both inventories

[@skunkgirl456]

you know its kinda funny ive been trying to get a prismatic shard for awhile now so i looked up how to get one and came across your video. So I load back into Stardew and I get a prismatic shard on the first Omni Geode i open! I just thought was so crazy xD

[@ameirgrant6116]

Got two in a row (my first ones) while in the skull cavern. Made it to level 100 quite comfortably but didn’t read the Qi note so I’ll have to do it again. Hoping for more prismatic shards and a ton of iridium

[@coolguy36393]

if i make pumpkin soup (or lucky lunch, but pumpkin soup is easier to make) and ginger ale with qi seasoning and eat it before a skull caverns dive on a best luck day i usually get atleast 2-3 shards

My head canon is that Haley got pregnant at a young age and was forced to have the child (by abusive bf/parents or something). She escaped the situation, but the child was still around. Be free, child. Free as a dove. And cast a shadow of guilt on Haley's life. The one thing that reminds her of her selfishness? The most beautiful gem in existence...the one she traded to free herself of the burden... Also 1.5 has been out for over 2 years for console/PC users.

While playing co-op with my girlfriend recently (her first time playing), I spent several days in year 1 going into the skull caverns with my space boots, obsidian blade, and a dream, trying to get a prismatic shard for the galaxy sword. After several failed runs (well, at least I got some iridium for tools/sprinklers), I decided I'd go farm rock crabs in the mines for the +5 defense ring, since the main thing limiting my dives into the skull caverns was getting absolutely rekt by serpents and chewing thru sashimi like a broke college kid at an all-you-can-eat sushi buffet. I didn't want to spoil WHY I wanted a shard to my girlfriend, but she was excited to help me with killing 60 rock crabs to get the defense ring. We had unlocked the mining cart, but she wasn't accustomed to using it yet, so when she attempted to come to the mines to help me, she accidentally teleported to the quarry. When she got there, she saw some metal nodes, so she figured she'd grab those real quick before heading into the mines with me. (her) "Hey, what's this swirly rock?" (me, having not played the game for the past 2+ years, looking at her screenshare in Discord) "I have no idea. I forgot those even existed" (her) *cracks it open* "..."wait, what was the thing you needed called? Prismatic shard?" (me) "WHATTTTTTT" I was out of energy and took the mining cart back to the bus stop to rest for the night, thinking she was coming with me. While I wasn't paying attention, she headed into the mines, got killed by a skeleton, and lost the shard. Thank god I had recently discovered item recovery due to a sashimi shortage. Marlon saved us from utter catastrophe that day.

i got my first shard from a mystic stone on the ice levels of the mine and i was SOOOOOOOO confused cause i didn't really pay attention to what stone i was mining lol i spent minutes looking at the screen trying to figure out WHAT did i do to get it. after that i never had another mystic stone spawn on my save file so that's sad D:

Another fun way to get a really good amount of prismatic shards that I just find so fun: go to the harder difficulty mines and on the floors that spawn the jumping spiders if you find yourself lucky enough to get a spider infested floor try putting on some monster musk and clearing out the floor a few times. The enemies are pretty fun when there's so many of them all around and I was able to get 7 shards from farming the floor for about 10 in game hours. Again pretty rare floor to find but is very fun if you get the chance.

You can guarantee a prismatic shard from a mystic node in the quarry. Start your day by cracking it open, if the prismatic shard doesn't drop exit your game and reload the day. Finish your day without opening the node. Repeat the process. Prismatic shards have a 25% drop from mystic nodes, and everyday it rerolls the potential drops.

i always stop the mines when i reach lv80 and go back to 40 and farm dust sprites for a burgler ring then i continue the mines and get a prismatic shard drop from the shadow guys, doing that way is almost granted that i'll have a prismatic shard when i first step into skull cavern, no more lava katana thankyou

I just started playing again a few days ago. I got my first one from a chest while fishing. My second came from a slime in the secret woods. I was pretty surprised. I remember my first time playing the game, I got the Galaxy Sword completely by accident. I didn't know about the Dwarven inscription on the headstone. I just went to the desert for the first time and saw the circle on the ground in the middle of the three pillars. It looked pretty suspicious, so I went there. Nothing happened. I just decided to cycle through my items to see if I could use anything, and one happened to be my new prismatic shard. At first I was really upset that I lost it, I think I even restarted the day because of that. Of course, I went back and found out how good the sword is.
