How to earn Shards fast in Spire of Trials
· 2 min read · Spire of Trials
Shards are the free currency of Spire of Trials. You spend them on costumes in the Wardrobe. Shards are never sold for Robux — you can only earn them in game. Here's where they come from and how to save faster.
The game is still in development and numbers may change before release.
Ascensions — the main source
| For | Shards |
|---|---|
| Taking part in an ascension | +20 |
| Each floor you pass | +15 |
| A win | +75 |
One detail matters: if fewer than four real players start the ascension, rewards are halved. Bots fill the match, but full rewards come from games with people. Invite friends — it pays off for everyone.
Quick trials
One random trial with no elimination, 2–4 minutes. Rewards depend on your place: 25 Shards for first, 15 for second and third, 10 for everyone else. Handy while you wait for the next ascension.
Quests
Every day you get 3 quests worth 30–50 Shards, and every week 2 quests worth 150–200. Examples:
- play 3 ascensions — 30;
- place your key on a pedestal twice — 35;
- score 90+ in Strength — 40;
- win an ascension or land a duel hit — 50;
- weekly: 5 wins or 6 duel hits — 200.
Quests never require purchases. Daily quests reset at midnight UTC, weekly ones on Monday.
Season pass
The free track of the pass has many levels with Shards: 50 to 300 per level. Season XP comes from the same ascensions and quests, so the Shards arrive on their own. More in Season pass: all Season 1 rewards.
If the pass gives you a costume you already own, you get 300 Shards instead.
What to spend them on
| Costume | Shards |
|---|---|
| Dusty Tracker | 250 |
| Bronze Guard | 500 |
| Quartz Scout | 900 |
| Seal Master | 1,500 |
| Mist Hunter | 2,500 |
Another 16 simple everyday costumes cost 120 to 1,250 Shards. About 2,500 Shards take roughly a week of regular play with quests.
In short: how to farm faster
- Finish your daily quests every day — the easiest Shards there are.
- Play ascensions with real players, not only bots.
- Fill the gaps with quick trials.
- Keep climbing the season pass — the free track is open to everyone.
