Shard progression
Process shards into shard packs
Disenchanting unwanted shards converts them into same-tier dust that can be exchanged for another pack.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Process shards into shard packs
Shard inventory for disenchanting, then the War Recruiter for dust exchange.
Before you go
- Have shards you are willing to disenchant.
- Know which shard tier you want to exchange into a pack.
- Keep the shard you intend to process available in inventory.
Farming steps
- Open your shard inventory and sort through shards you do not plan to use.
- Check each candidate shard’s tier and confirm it is safe to remove.
- Use the shard disenchant action to convert it into shard dust of the same tier.
- Repeat processing until you have ten dust for the tier you are targeting.
- Visit the War Recruiter and exchange the ten dust for one new shard pack.
- Open the pack and inspect the random shards it contains.
- Equip or upgrade useful results; keep unwanted shards for another processing cycle if appropriate.
- Disenchanting removes the shard, so do not process an item needed by another hero or defense setup.
- Dust tier matters: same-tier dust is the input for the pack exchange you want.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeatable when you have ten dust of a tier and expendable shards. Each exchange uses ten dust for one pack; pack contents are random.
Common mistakes
- Disenchanting a useful or upgraded shard by mistake; inspect the item and its build uses first.
- Combining dust from the wrong tier for your target; verify the dust tier before exchanging.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you have the shards needed for your build or when further random packs are less useful than saving shards for later.
