Wow. My last playthrough I found 5 in year 1 alone.... They were all through mining in the cave and skull cavern... Are you using buffs and checking your luck on the tv daily?
guys if you’re feeling discouraged, try not to! i found my first in a fishing chest, then in a mystic stone in the quarry, from killing a skeleton in the normal mines, and then at the volcano forge. then recently, i got six in one skull cavern run! don’t give up!
I got my first for killing a bat. Fun fact: the moment you reach floor 120 in The Mines all enemies (and I do mean All) have a 0.04% chance to drop them indiscriminately meaning you can go Murder Mad on weak monsters at the early Mine levels and depending on how lucky one gets…
I got one on my 2nd week of spring year 1 from the first omni I opened on a run. 3 days later I fished up a dino egg and got the trash can lid. Best start I've ever had.
The first and only one I’ve gotten so far was from a lucky break in the quarry. Then I accidentally gave it to Pam 😫 when I meant to give her a beer. It was traumatizing.
Got my first shard today out of an Omni geode. Straight to the desert to get my sword. Afterward, I went to the Quarry for the first time on this character and got another one out of a Mystic Stone. That one went to the museum. Such a fun game.
Got my shard from skull caverns ghost lol when I got it I went to the shrine to get galaxy sword and went to bed cause I don't wanna die and lose it and it's rare really rare oh yeah I got another one from the 25 percent thing
I found my 1st prismatic shard yesterday! I found it in the quarry. It was my 1st time ever seeing a rock with swirls, so I was super curious. Thankfully, I knew to take it to the desert instead of donating. The skull cavern feels less intimidating. I definitely have the check the guild for more galaxy weapons if they are unlocked now.
I go to the Skull Mines fully-stacked! All 3 types of bomb-boys (bought from our friendly neighborhood dwarf), as many triple-espressos as I can grow, brew, and make, along with purchasing (from our friendly desert trader) as many spicy eel meals via rubies and staircases with jade!!! Yet, I'm still super uneasy going into the skull mines, despite having all of the best equipment, "tools," and food. I just don't know what it is about it. Maybe it's just my brain having issues. In any case, I hope you're having a blast playing Stardew!!!💚💜💚 It sucks! I guess it'll just take practice. It's hard for me to take in and learn new things due to a variety of health issues and head injuries, though I keep trying. The last visit to skull mines ended with me dying while trying to escape and eat food. Luckily, this type of thing has happened to me so many times that I was fast enough to reset back to groundhog day before it saved. I swear, I played that day so many freaking times, never finishing (for a multitude of reasons). It sucks to see others who are so freaking good at it and then I can't get even a tiny part done in the same timeframe... But I won't stop watching because I enjoy them so much... Or stop trying to improve my own game. But man oh man, is it hard to find the proper motivation.
I knew about the most interesting uses of the shard when I donated the first one.. I think I found it in a mysterious node down in the mines in my first year.. My thought was that I have to waste one for Gunther anyway and that I want to complete the museum.. xD I think I'll use the next one for the Galaxy Sword..
When I found my first prismatic shard, it was in skull cavern, I was so happy. But then my game crashed and I lost it. I... stopped playing for a little while
In my experience, the easiest way to get them is deep in the skull mine. The deeper you go the better. Build staircases and bombs to help clear floors fast and rush down as far as you can go.
The burglar ring is insane, it straight up doubles all drops. I've gotten pretty much all of my shards from random monsters in the mines and skull cavern, along with some other good stuff. Farming dust sprites is now one of the first things I do in a run
@@senbebe3320 nope. The game only checks if you have at least one burglar ring equipped, so multiple rings make 0 difference. Also, prismatic shards might not even be affected by the burglar ring from what I have heard.
@@senbebe3320 Nah they don’t stack. You’re better off combining the burglar with the luck ring, if you want the best chance of drops. Personally I use the burglar ring paired with the slime ring, and the iridium ring paired with the luck ring for maximum drops.
I got my first prismatic shard on Day 1 fall year 2. I was on an infested floor in the mines. I was thinking about skipping it but I decided not to because I thought there would be grubs on that floor (I had to slay 50 of them for clint). Instead of finding grubs, I found a prismatic shard.
If I remember correctly, my first find was while fishing Also, a tip when coming to the dino egg, use it in your chicken coop first before putting it in the museum. It took me 7 real life months on my save before I got another one.
@@witha1 yes but the Dino egg is rare drop compared to what the other drops are as well as the floor itself. So yes, that is the "easier" thing to do but why potentially waste as much time as I did and go the actual way route, ya know?
@@larchan1350 the icubator way is a lot slower since it takes like multiple days to hatch and like an entire in-game season (i think) for the dino to grow up and then a few days till it lays an egg, while going to the skull caverns could take like one day bc you're bound to find at least 1 pre hostoric floor while going to floor 100+
@@witha1 it takes a while yes but as long as you don't rid of the Dino after it hatches, you can have multiple eggs without having to go to the mines and if you do multiple coops, you can do different chickens as well
I got my first prismatic shard by one day deciding to revisit some of the lower levels in the mines. I was wandering around and killed one of those bugs that just fly back and forth and can die really easily. I killed it, it dropped a prismatic shard somehow, and I nearly threw my switch across the room
Literally just got my first one now, while watching this guide. Was on mine farming for fiber while watching and saw the Mystic Stone a little after you told about it.
A little extra tip if you have access to the geode crusher, place one in Clint’s shop so that if you get a prismatic shard you can throw the next Omni geode you have in it to get a second prismatic shard.
I've found three Prismatic Shards in my time, one from fishing, one from mining, and one as a lucky monster drop. Used them to get the Galaxy Sword, donate to the museum, and finish the last bundle, in that order.

Or my personal favorite method... Constantly invade the skull caverns with loads of mega bombs and stone staircases in hand. That and plenty of meds for the very lower levels from holes in the ground. Did I mention stacks of iridium ore in the process?
Thank you for sharing! I am a noob and gave my first dinosaur egg and prismatic shard to the museum. Big nooby move :c EDIT: I just got another shard from a mutant bug!!! YAY!
I got lucky while "mining" on the quarry and got my first 2 prismatic shard in a row somehow... really helpful for getting the galaxy sword before diving to skull cavern. Haven't turn it to Gunther yet, it's too precious. 😭🤚
I know I found mine in Skull Cavern, either from an enemy or a rock, I was dying the those caverns, but because of this video I'm now a proud owner of that sword! I'm still dying though!
I found my first prismatic shard from slaying a bat in the mines, screamed in shock and immediately went to the desert the next day for the sexiest sword.
Very helpful and well presented as always. I now feel a lot more prepared for Skull cave, not that I’m anywhere near that point in the game. Many thanks Wicky! 😎
I found my first in a rock. And my mom got the trash can hat first try. Still on the hunt for it.. I just wanna be a trash can, take a picture, and treasure it
Found my first prismatic shard in year 1 winter and it was on the bad luck day. Found it on Quarry along with a Ruby + iridium. I'd say it was pretty lucky.
I haven’t played starters valley in weeks but this makes me want to go back on and play. I’m gonna go play it now! Wish me luck on finding some shards😁
This is my absolute favorite video I’ve watched on this game!!! You get your points across in a very coherent manner and due to your description it makes it easy to just go to a specific point to see how to get them or what you can use the shards for!
bruh. I was waiting for your reply.. why did I just see this now hahaha. guess my email's a mess haha. I'm still trying to get that 2nd baby in stardew kekeke
In one of my first ever games, I found a P-Shard earlier than ever since - and gave it to Gunther! Until recently (v1.4), my favourite way to get a Prismatic Shard was...not to. Due to a coding duplication, if you held the plain, pale green wallpaper between the pillars - Hey Presto - Galaxy Sword! **This does NOT work anymore** One exploit that DOES still work is to add item codes to your animal names. Is it "cheating"? - YES.... but it's "adjustable" cheating. ;-) If you call your first chickens Layla[74] & Eggatha[74] (square brackets required), then as Marnie names each, sending them to your coop, you will get one Prismatic Shard. I have more often used [645] (Iridium Sprinkler), which can be made "less-cheaty" using [337] (Iridium Bar], or even [386] (Iridium Ore)... or, for the random chance detailed in your video, [749] (for an Omni Geode).
Recently started playing Stardew. While trying to get gems for my midnight squids, I randomly got a prismatic shard from a red slime in the mines. First, and so far only, prismatic shard i've gotten. Used it to get that galaxy sword so I can mine Skull Cavern for iridium.
I got my first pristmatic shard from the dust spirits so heres the story: I was grinding up for the burglar ring to get a higher chance on getting a prismatic shards and I didnt need it I got my prismatic shards i run as fast as i could to get the galaxy sword and I go to the Skull Cavern and found 5 iriduim ores and I got a lucky ring I was so shocked that I got hose items in 1 day
oh man i rwmember when i first unlocked the quarry i got like 3 of those mystic rocks and 2 of them had prismatic shards bfjdjaka my friends yelled at me for my insane luck
iv got one prismatic shard from an iridium ore in the quarry, and used it for the galaxy sword, a HUGE upgrade to my insect head, also farming in skull cavern is a good way, due to the sheer amount of enemys, iridium nodes, and mystic stones
So, I've been playing Stardew valley for 9 in-game years and have only found 2 in my entire time playing, so thank you, I'll definitely be using the rainbow trout method!
If you happen to be on PC (I think it’s possible on another device type but I’m not sure) you can get them by buying a farm animal and including the item ID for the prismatic shard in the animals name, it will only give you one per animal but that’s still pretty good :) I know some people don’t like to use this method tho
I actually found my first one with some iridium ore the second time I went panning! on that particular file I managed to do it twice more. panning is definitely underrated!
I had never heard of the magic rock in the mines until watching this video, LITERALLY 3 minutes after watching i found one and got my shard haha. Last week i got a random shard from the flying bugs in the early mine levels!
Also! If anyone is still here, there’s a monochromatic greeny-blue wallpaper that will work as a prismatic shard in The Missing Bundle! This works in 1.5 (my bestie and I did that on our save file). No such luck getting the galaxy sword though! Hope this helps someone.
The first time I found one was while I was in skull Cavern 4 the second time. I was really scared because the last time I was in skull Cavern I didn't have a weapon strong enough to kill the monsters so I just got swarmed and almost died immediately but I needed iridium and being in the mines all day mining Omni geodes didn't help give me the amount I needed fast enough. While being attacked by monsters I got caught in my mega bombs' explosion so I couldn't tell if it came the monsters I killed, the monsters that got caught in the explosion, or from any of the ore&rocks destroyed by the bomb
Me and my sister were playing on our own singleplayer worlds and I found a mystic stone in my quarry. I searched up the droprate for a prismatic shard from one and said to my sister these exact words "Imagine if I get a prismatic shard"... Guess what I got.
Whenever I first got my Prismatic card it was the first time I ever went in the Quarry and the first geode I saw was a mystic stone so I broke it and it had a prismatic shard in it and my sibling was so pissed 😆
This channel is the best! The first time I got one was in the skull cavern, but I was on a race to level 100 and made a mistake so I had to restart the game and lose the shard 😂
"Take the prismatic shard to the three pillars in the desert and this happens!" *AFK Arena ad starts playing* ... Well I'm definitely not doing that then 🤣🤣🤣
I’ve been playing Stardew for about a week and when I unlocked the skull caver I immediately went. The first rock that I broke gave me a prismatic shard. Then 20 floors later i killed my first dino and got a dino egg.
My first prismatic shard was on level 4 in my 7th day of spring year 1. I didn't realize what fell into my hands, so i sold it to Clint. After i read about prismatic shard uses, I was SOOOOO angry at myself. My next shard was literally a year or two later.
It dropped from slime, and the second one is from shadow brute, I was in need of gold ores for my sprinklers and one of them attacked me, so i killed it. It dropped a prismatic shard. Yay!
I just got my first one on a sever with my mom! There were two of the mystic stones and I guess I choose right because her mystic stone didn't have a prismatic shard. Then I got my second one a day later in a omni geode and gave it to her.
I have just started Stardew Valley last month and let me tell you how much this video has FREAKIN SPOILERS LMFAOO 😭😭 just a warning to everyone who's just starting their game 😂😂
I found mine in the Quarry when I first unlocked it, haven’t gotten another since. Also, I had no idea how rare it was, so I just donated it to the museum lol
8:43 Im very new to stardew valley and have chosen to play through my first in game year blind, without looking at any guides besides sometimes checking someone's schedule to deliver them an item. Earlier today i actually just unlocked the quarry and saw my first mystic stone, and i had no idea what it was or what the drop rates were, but i got one iridium ore and one prismatic shard, my first of each! Its good to know that its not a guaranteed drop, but i feel like i was definitely very lucky! Also- does anyone else keep their first of certain special items? Im definitely keeping my first iridium ore and prismatic shard in a special chest (alongside mother's cookies)
Just learning about prismatic shards by watching your video and i just was going to the quarry to check it out for the first time. Didn't even know you could find one here and i found one while watching your video weird. So ya that my first tx for the video

I found my first prismatic shard from slaying a bat in the mines, screamed in shock and immediately went to the desert the next day for the sexiest sword.
As someone extremely new to Stardew Valley, this entire video was mind blowing as soon as the video started
My first prismatic shard was from a Mystic Node at the Quarry... it happened ironically immediately after watching this video
Very helpful and well presented as always. I now feel a lot more prepared for Skull cave, not that I’m anywhere near that point in the game. Many thanks Wicky! 😎
Yay! Thank you for this guide! I love your play through of this game, but you guide videos are just as awesome!
i was literally looking this up 15 minutes ago before seeing you uploaded it thank you
I'm so happy I found your content. You do a wonderful job and you deserve a gigantic following. I'm excited to see where your channel goes
I got mine from a dust sprite. Lets just say i was SUPER surprised 😂
I found my first in a rock. And my mom got the trash can hat first try. Still on the hunt for it.. I just wanna be a trash can, take a picture, and treasure it
Found my first prismatic shard in year 1 winter and it was on the bad luck day. Found it on Quarry along with a Ruby + iridium. I'd say it was pretty lucky.
Me too!
Same!
İ found my in 5 ommi nodes that i get from the task in old hosue
I found my first prismatic shard by killing a grub, i was so shocked 😁
Me too!!
I haven’t played starters valley in weeks but this makes me want to go back on and play. I’m gonna go play it now! Wish me luck on finding some shards😁
Stardew valley not starters valley😂
@@mk_atkisson you can edit comments you know.
Good luck trying. Im on year 11 and gotten 3 so far
My very first one was literally from a mystic node in the quarry, only got the game somewhat recently but I've been REALLY loving it
Thank you! This video will save me so much time since I don't know a lot about Stardew Valley. 💕
I like how organized this video was with the timestamps!
This is my absolute favorite video I’ve watched on this game!!! You get your points across in a very coherent manner and due to your description it makes it easy to just go to a specific point to see how to get them or what you can use the shards for!
I got my very first from a bat While looking for coal! I then stopped playing for a bit. A few days later, I got a diamond from a slime!
Amazing! ...never watched a walkthrough as smooth as like this before♥️ i like how you include the comedy in between
Glad you enjoyed!
bruh. I was waiting for your reply.. why did I just see this now hahaha. guess my email's a mess haha. I'm still trying to get that 2nd baby in stardew kekeke
In my first playthrough i got it from the swirly rock, but in my second I got one from rainbow trouts without knowing they could drop it
I found my first by mining a magic stone at the quarry.
Same
Same
Same
I did aswell, it was right when I first unlocked the quarry aswell
Jesus, can you multiply this?
Oh man I really need this video haha. I'm at end game so, yeah! Prefect timing!
In one of my first ever games, I found a P-Shard earlier than ever since - and gave it to Gunther!
Until recently (v1.4), my favourite way to get a Prismatic Shard was...not to.
Due to a coding duplication, if you held the plain, pale green wallpaper between the pillars - Hey Presto - Galaxy Sword! **This does NOT work anymore**
One exploit that DOES still work is to add item codes to your animal names.
Is it "cheating"? - YES.... but it's "adjustable" cheating. ;-)
If you call your first chickens Layla[74] & Eggatha[74] (square brackets required), then as Marnie names each, sending them to your coop, you will get one Prismatic Shard. I have more often used [645] (Iridium Sprinkler), which can be made "less-cheaty" using [337] (Iridium Bar], or even [386] (Iridium Ore)... or, for the random chance detailed in your video, [749] (for an Omni Geode).
Recently started playing Stardew. While trying to get gems for my midnight squids, I randomly got a prismatic shard from a red slime in the mines. First, and so far only, prismatic shard i've gotten.
Used it to get that galaxy sword so I can mine Skull Cavern for iridium.
I got my first pristmatic shard from the dust spirits so heres the story: I was grinding up for the burglar ring to get a higher chance on getting a prismatic shards and I didnt need it I got my prismatic shards i run as fast as i could to get the galaxy sword and I go to the Skull Cavern and found 5 iriduim ores and I got a lucky ring I was so shocked that I got hose items in 1 day
oh man i rwmember when i first unlocked the quarry i got like 3 of those mystic rocks and 2 of them had prismatic shards bfjdjaka my friends yelled at me for my insane luck
I got a message that said "Today is a very very lucky day!" And it appeared in my invetory and I'm still confused
Probably the gods of stardew valley gave the legends blessing to you
iv got one prismatic shard from an iridium ore in the quarry, and used it for the galaxy sword, a HUGE upgrade to my insect head, also farming in skull cavern is a good way, due to the sheer amount of enemys, iridium nodes, and mystic stones
I just started this game last week. Still haven’t found one, but I already love this game!!
Even though this was so long ago, it was very useful. Thank you.
🌈🪨
So, I've been playing Stardew valley for 9 in-game years and have only found 2 in my entire time playing, so thank you, I'll definitely be using the rainbow trout method!
I'm in year 5 in game and i found 4 of it by mining and slay a green slim in secret woods and omnie geods
If you happen to be on PC (I think it’s possible on another device type but I’m not sure) you can get them by buying a farm animal and including the item ID for the prismatic shard in the animals name, it will only give you one per animal but that’s still pretty good :) I know some people don’t like to use this method tho
Year three and I found 3 through mining ⛏
I got my first prismatic from mining and my all time favourite use is peeving off Hailey! Second favourite use is sword.
I actually found my first one with some iridium ore the second time I went panning! on that particular file I managed to do it twice more. panning is definitely underrated!
I had never heard of the magic rock in the mines until watching this video, LITERALLY 3 minutes after watching i found one and got my shard haha. Last week i got a random shard from the flying bugs in the early mine levels!
Also! If anyone is still here, there’s a monochromatic greeny-blue wallpaper that will work as a prismatic shard in The Missing Bundle! This works in 1.5 (my bestie and I did that on our save file). No such luck getting the galaxy sword though! Hope this helps someone.
still works 2 years later!
The first time I found one was while I was in skull Cavern 4 the second time. I was really scared because the last time I was in skull Cavern I didn't have a weapon strong enough to kill the monsters so I just got swarmed and almost died immediately but I needed iridium and being in the mines all day mining Omni geodes didn't help give me the amount I needed fast enough. While being attacked by monsters I got caught in my mega bombs' explosion so I couldn't tell if it came the monsters I killed, the monsters that got caught in the explosion, or from any of the ore&rocks destroyed by the bomb
Well at least you got something out of that stressful sounding situation
Even with that sword, I'm still dying! Can't get past Level 10.
Me and my sister were playing on our own singleplayer worlds and I found a mystic stone in my quarry. I searched up the droprate for a prismatic shard from one and said to my sister these exact words "Imagine if I get a prismatic shard"... Guess what I got.
Whenever I first got my Prismatic card it was the first time I ever went in the Quarry and the first geode I saw was a mystic stone so I broke it and it had a prismatic shard in it and my sibling was so pissed 😆
"bring a prismatic shard in over, and, well this happens!"
*Add starts*
Me: 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've been playing Stardew Valley lately with my partner and in one day, I found two Prismatic Shards while in the mines.
Bring a prismatic shard here and we’ll this happens... add for McDonald’s starts playing for me
Audible advert but same lol
I litterly got the shard in year 2 while not even trying. thats my biggest flex ever
So many in one save file! You are a seriously talented gamer
This channel is the best! The first time I got one was in the skull cavern, but I was on a race to level 100 and made a mistake so I had to restart the game and lose the shard 😂
"Take the prismatic shard to the three pillars in the desert and this happens!" *AFK Arena ad starts playing* ... Well I'm definitely not doing that then 🤣🤣🤣
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHWHAHAGW
Wait, am I the only one here who still don't know the "Neptune's Glaive"?
Do you mean how to get it?
Omg I feel so stupid lmao this taught me how to equip rings and hats tysm 😂
My third play through, I had the bugs from 10-20 drop them 3 times, and it honestly spooked me.
I found my first prismatic shard mining iridium ore. It was pretty exciting!
I’ve been playing Stardew for about a week and when I unlocked the skull caver I immediately went. The first rock that I broke gave me a prismatic shard. Then 20 floors later i killed my first dino and got a dino egg.
My first prismatic shard was on level 4 in my 7th day of spring year 1. I didn't realize what fell into my hands, so i sold it to Clint. After i read about prismatic shard uses, I was SOOOOO angry at myself. My next shard was literally a year or two later.
It dropped from slime, and the second one is from shadow brute, I was in need of gold ores for my sprinklers and one of them attacked me, so i killed it. It dropped a prismatic shard. Yay!
My first prismatic shard was found on floor 115 in the mines, by killing one of the shadow dudes. I started screaming 😂 and told my friend about it
I just got my first one on a sever with my mom! There were two of the mystic stones and I guess I choose right because her mystic stone didn't have a prismatic shard. Then I got my second one a day later in a omni geode and gave it to her.
IDK why but the little clip of you checking the empty baby crib after wishing it away made me laugh so hard
WickedyChickady: "How did you find your first prismatic Shard?"
Me: A simple answer CHEAT
For a moment i read “omni-George” XD
I have just started Stardew Valley last month and let me tell you how much this video has FREAKIN SPOILERS LMFAOO 😭😭 just a warning to everyone who's just starting their game 😂😂
I don't see how this is spoiler
I found mine in the Quarry when I first unlocked it, haven’t gotten another since. Also, I had no idea how rare it was, so I just donated it to the museum lol
I found my first prismatic shard when I first entered floor 21 of the mines and found it in a special stone. I got extremely lucky.
I found one and I'm on year 10, I think it to difficult if I be honest.
But now I have been luckier, found 3 in year 11.
It got a few in year 3
For those of you who came looking for how to find one… 4:35 you are welcome.
I know easy way first go to Marnies house and by any animal and name [74] and like please
or name yourself that and anytime someone says your name you will instantly get one

Im very new to stardew valley and have chosen to play through my first in game year blind, without looking at any guides besides sometimes checking someone's schedule to deliver them an item. Earlier today i actually just unlocked the quarry and saw my first mystic stone, and i had no idea what it was or what the drop rates were, but i got one iridium ore and one prismatic shard, my first of each! Its good to know that its not a guaranteed drop, but i feel like i was definitely very lucky!
Also- does anyone else keep their first of certain special items? Im definitely keeping my first iridium ore and prismatic shard in a special chest (alongside mother's cookies)
I appreciate how some you tubers are still trying to keep stardew alive, I’m also a new sub now ❤️
Just learning about prismatic shards by watching your video and i just was going to the quarry to check it out for the first time. Didn't even know you could find one here and i found one while watching your video weird. So ya that my first tx for the video
