The First Descendant is a free-to-play third-person cooperative action RPG shooter developed using Unreal Engine 5. The Void Shards are valuable resources used to upgrade tools and improve your character’s abilities. These shards are obtained by destroying Void Fragments, which are special structures found throughout the game’s various maps.
Types of Void Shards In The First Descendant
There are several types of Void Shards you can collect, each with its specific use. Here are the types of void shards.
- Organic Void Shard
- Inorganic Void Shard
- Monomer Void Shard
- Polymer Void Shard
How to Use Void Shards In The First Descendant
As you know, Void Shards are used to Start Void Fusion Reactors. However, different types of void shards are used to start a specific reactor.
To find out, what void shard you need, just hover your cursor over a Void Fusion Reactor on the map. That way you can see what kind of void shard it needed. Once you check it out, find the void fragments that drop your required void shard. After you find the right Void Shards, head back to the reactor and interact with it to go further.
How To Farm Void Shards In The First Descendant
Farming Void Shards in The First Descendant requires strategic planning and efficient execution. Here’s how to farm void shards.
Locate Void Fragments
Void Shards are mostly obtained by destroying Void Fragments, which are pillar-like structures scattered across various maps, including Kingston. These fragments are required for your shard farming efforts, so knowing their locations is important.
Check Elemental Requirements
Each Void Fragment has a specific elemental weakness. To destroy a Void Fragment, you must use an offensive skill that matches its elemental weakness.
Repeat Void Fragments Missions
Consistently destroying Void Fragments is the key to farming Void Shards effectively. These fragments respawn, allowing you to repeatedly complete missions to gather shards. Since Void Fragments are present in most regions, select a location that aligns with your current Descendant’s attributes to maximize efficiency.
