Destiny 2 entropic shards upgrade#

One normal Archon Shard that rotates its color weekly can be purchased from Chipper of Kahl's Garrison for 90 Stock, requiring players to be at Rank 5 - Home to purchase.Įach Shard provides a selection from five stats and only one can be chosen per Shard (though the same bonus can be chosen again if multiple Shards of the same colour are socketed in the same Warframe), and each Warframe has 5 available Shard slots.

Taking the increasing drop rates after not getting a Tauforged into consideration, the effective chance for a Tauforged is around 39.83%.

If a normal variant is awarded, the chance of receiving a Tauforged increases by 20% which resets upon earning one, tracked individually for each shard type.

The Shard has an 80% chance of being a normal variant and 20% of being Tauforged.

Archon Shards are awarded from Archon Hunts: Crimson from Archon Amar, Amber from Archon Nira, and Azure from Archon Boreal.

Destiny 2 entropic shards upgrade#

Azure Archon Shards can be used to upgrade Warframe survivability stats, such as shield capacity, health, or energy.Īrchon Shards can also have 'Tauforged' variants, which are rarer but have 1.5x higher stat bonuses than their regular variants.Amber Archon Shards can be used to upgrade utility stats, such as ability cast speed, parkour velocity, or pickup effectiveness.Crimson Archon Shards can be used to upgrade weapon/ability stats, such as melee critical damage, ability strength, or ability duration.

This can be countered by removing the shard from the body of the Archons, as without the shard, the Archon merely slumps over and perishes. The Archons can also use the energy from the shards to reanimate slain Sentients, and allows the Archons to reanimate themselves if they fall in battle. Archon Shards are used by Narmer's Archons, giving them immense energy and life.
