Recommended Route
Dark Shard follows the same elemental shard rules as other shards, but the best documented Night Wraith setup already uses three of them — making it especially valuable to track down.

What Dark Shard does
Dark Shard does not increase your raw Magic total.
It increases the odds of landing Dark-element results once your other materials already qualify for the right potion tier.

Why Dark Shard is high priority
The best publicly documented Night Wraith route uses three Dark Shards alongside two Furnace Cores.
SPELL gives two Dark Shards, making it one of the easiest free ways to start testing end-game dark brewing.
