The Eye of Twilight will display the location of the Soul Shard even as you move, which means that if you are on a PvP server, others will be able to see the location of the shard.

To activate the buff of the Soul Shard, place it in your hot bar and click on it to put it on the ground. This will create a Pylon that you can use to activate the buff.

You do not need any additional materials besides the Soul Shard to make the Pylon.

Each buff will lasttwo hours,and you can haveall three Soul Shard buffs active at the same time.

Can You Obtain More Soul Shards?

If you are playing on a PvE server, multiple Soul Shards can be present.This allows multiple players to have a shard in their castle.

If, on the other hand, you are on a PvP server, there can only be one type of each shard. The Soul Shard will be given to the player whodefeats the associated boss first.

This means that the only way to obtain the shards is to take them from other players. You can do this by raiding or sneaking into their castle, as well as taking it from them while in transport. Remember,the location on the map will always be visible, so you know exactly where to steal it from.
