how to get dark shard in chapter 3 deltarune

The Black Shard in Chapter 3 is obtained by defeating the secret boss, the Roaring Knight, at the end of the chapter. It is a Kris-exclusive weapon, and guides note that it drops after you survive that fight.

How to get it

  1. Progress Chapter 3 until you reach the secret boss route.
  2. Beat the Roaring Knight fight.
  3. Claim the reward afterward: the Shadow Crystal and the Black Shard.

Important note

You generally need the Chapter 3 secret-boss setup to get there, and community reports suggest the reward is tied to the same save-slot chain rather than carrying over across every file automatically.

What it does

The Black Shard gives Kris a strong attack boost and is described as especially effective against Dark-type enemies.

TL;DR

Defeat Chapter 3’s secret boss, the Roaring Knight, and the Black Shard is your reward.
