There's still a heck of a lot of power left in this one little piece.

The Enlightened Shard is an item exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in Return of Them. It can be obtained by using a Deconstruction Staff on an Enlightened Crown, which will drop five shards. It also always drops in the amount of one piece from Celestial Champion.

When dropped on the ground it will emit a small amount of light. Enlightened Shards can also be put into a Mushroom Light to make it glow in various colors. One shard is enough to make a mushroom light emit the maximum amount of light, and will stop the spoilage of other items in the mushroom light's inventory.

Each Enlightened Shard has one inventory slot that will accept one of any color of Mushroom Spore. The color of the spore inside the shard determines the color of light emitted. Any spores inside a shard will not be affected by spoilage.

It can be given to Grainy Transmission after defeating Celestial Champion to summon Rifts.

Placeholder Trivia[]

  • The Enlightened Shard was introduced in the Eye of the Storm update.
  • When Enlightened Shard was first introduced in the beta, it could be used to craft back to Enlightened Crown, but this feature got removed later in the beta. It's likely to prevent farming it via the use of Green Gem.
  • Prior to the update Taking Root, the Enlightened Shard was called the "Enlightened Crown Shard" and was only a drop from the Enlightened Crown.
