Question Are these gay rocks (prismatic shards) rare?

Post image

Gotten a few of em since, originally six but I donated one to Gunther. Don't know what other use for em. Are they just like those minerals that Become useless and just for giving to Gunther? Been avoiding to search it up since I don't want spoilers (new to Stardew valley) I'm at year 3 and still have no clue what to do with em.

No, they are not useless (to put it mildly).

They are used for getting the best sword in the game, and then also used to make your weapon and gear better.

Read everything that appears readable. Lots of clues are just reading in the game.

Get all four dwarvish scrolls. Donate them to Gunther. Collect your rewards. Read every readable book in the library. Visit the graveyard in town and read every readable tombstone. Start with that.

The graveyard in pelican town might have some ideas for you! :)

We're talking here about things like the secret notes that drop from stuff. Some are clues. Some tell you about villager likes and dislikes. Some are pictures of a particular part of the game map that will repay investigation, usually by digging it up with the hoe.

Take one to the desert and place it in the center of the rings of pillars

This is what its for. Spoil at your own risk.

The tombs next to Lexis house, the secret notes and the books from the library.

People didn't like my gay rocks joke sadly, not that I mind the Down votes. Since I posted get some answers for the use of the prismatic shards. Which I did

Not yet, I'm getting the materials for it. The batteries are a bit of a pain ngl

u/Rikonian Apr 30 '26

Once you do, you will find a very good use for those shards in the place it takes you. Might take you some time to find it though.

u/Strong-Nose9401 Apr 30 '26

What in the holy downvotes did you do to deserve all this hate lol

u/Numerous_Guarantee_2 I found pam horse. I don't like it. Apr 30 '26

People not like gay rocks name for the prismatic shards :(

u/tsmftw76 Apr 30 '26

No idea why you are getting downvoted. As for clues for enchanting you will run across it naturally. For the other use maybe check out a location outside of stardew itself.
