The Shadow Odyssey introduces a new method of acquiring armor, jewelry, and weapons. Void Shards are the currency used to buy these items. Each dungeon has several quests or Missions on a daily rotation which award them, as well as Void Shard chests found in each zone. Finally, there is a rotating Daily Double quest which awards 2 Void Shards for completing tasks in a specific dungeon. It is possible to earn up to 4 shards in a single dungeon instance.

Tier 1 Void Shard Armor (Legendary) is a substantial upgrade over the Kunark Legendary sets and has more specialized stats and bonuses for each character class.
Tier 2 Void Shard Armor (Legendary) is a slight upgrade in the primary stats over the Tier 1 Void Shard Armor but introduces a crucial new survival statistic -- Critical Mitigation -- which is required to survive the more difficult TSO Group Dungeons as well as all of the TSO Raid Zones.
Void Shard armor may be purchased from the seven Mysterious Quellithulian vendors in Moors of Ykesha around 1679, 452, 894 at the Dropship Landing Zone. They may be crafted by tradeskillers who have completed the requisite quests and acquired the recipe books for a substantial discount in the number of shards required.
