Nearly every quest and activity within Disney Dreamlight Valley asks players to gather a multitude of resources. One resource players may require is Night Shards, the darker twin of Dream Shards and less complicated to obtain.
They’re still challenging to get though, so here’s how you can obtain Night Shards in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
Where to find Night Shards in Disney Dreamlight Valley
There are two main methods to obtaining Night Shards in Disney Dreamlight Valley: by digging the sparkling mounds on the ground or by crafting them at a crafting station.
These sparkling spots can be found in any biome in Dreamlight Valley and are sometimes easy to miss because they can blend all too well into the ground. For instance, it is easy to miss in the shadowy and dense Forgotten Lands or the dark and swampy Glade of Trust biome. So, carefully examine the ground for sparkles wherever you go if you hope to attain this item.
Night Shards are also not guaranteed to be what drops when players dig up these mounds, although they are certainly more common than Dream Shards. It’s up to luck whether you get Night Shards or Dream Shards from these sparkling spots.
The other way to get Night Shards is to craft them at a crafting station. One Onyx can be refined to make three Night Shards.
Both methods take time as you find the sparkling mounds, or mine nodes until you get Onyx. But these are the two best ways to get Night Shards.
Onyx can be mined from any mining node in Dreamlight Valley.
