In Hollow Knight: Silksong, Beast Shards serve as high-value consumables that crack open into a large haul of Shell Shards.
Beast Shard Item Functions
Activating a Beast Shard from the inventory grants 140 Shell Shards at once, feeding the crafting economy Hornet relies on for new tools and upgrades.
How to Get Beast Shard
Only a handful of hulking foes can drop Beast Shards:

- •Craggler - Large enemy encounter

Beast Shard Item Notes
Because each shard instantly converts into 140 Shell Shards, they are far quicker to stockpile than farming smaller foes. Keeping a few on hand streamlines any crafting or upgrade spree.
