Hytale All Crystal Shard Locations
Crystal Shards are mined from Crystals and used to craft a variety of decorative items in Hytale. Here's a list of all Crystal Shard types available in the game, where to find them, and how to use Crystal Shards!

List of Contents

All Crystal Shard Locations

Crystal Shards are obtained by mining Crystals, which are mostly found in specific biomes called Zones, though a majority of the Crystal Shards listed below can be found in the underground jungle of the Devastated Lands (Zone 4).

Crystal Shards can be mined with any Pickaxe, but we recommend using at least an Iron Pickaxe for more efficient mining.

Material How to Get
Blue Crystal ShardsBlue Crystal Shards
Blue Crystals in Underground Jungle
Commonly found on the surface of cold biomes, usually beneath snowy trees that glow brightly at night, as well as in underground caverns.

Blue Crystals can also be found on the ceiling of the underground jungle in volcanic biomes. You can build a platform to reach the top and use your pickaxe to mine the crystals.
Cyan Crystal ShardsCyan Crystal Shards

How to Use Crystal Shards

Used for Decorative Items

Decorative Items

Crystal Shards are mostly used to craft decorative items at the Furniture Workbench, especially seasonal items such as the Winter Bauble, Winter Light, and Winter Lights.

You can also use the Builder’s Workbench to convert Crystal Shards back into Crystal blocks if you want to use them as decoration.

Craft Higher-Tier Seeds

Highter Tier Seeds

Crystal Shards are also used to craft higher-tier Seeds at the Farmer’s Workbench. You may need to find their recipes first and upgrade your Farmer’s Workbench to at least Tier 8 to unlock Seed recipes that require Crystal Shards.
