Corrupted Shard

Corrupted Shard

Crafting Material

The crystal sizzles with unrefined power, sending jolts of energy and aberrant whispers through every synapse of your being. Whatever essence once dwelled within this shard, it has long been separated from its source... and inhabited by something new.

“Sentience exists to be corrupted. To submit in totality to defilement and putrefaction, to be sundered of its discordant wholeness and recast anew for our endmost design.”

Corrupted Shards are a special crafting material and currency added during the Aberration Domination event. Dwell can harness their latent energies to craft powerful Corrupted Weapons.
