The Night Shard is a Night sorcery in Elden Ring. It is picked up mid-game, in Caelid.
Night Shard is one of the night sorceries of Sellia, whose sorcerers were assassins said to hunt their own kind. It swiftly fires a small semi-invisible projectile that enemies never try to dodge, and it comes out without delay after running, jumping, rolling or attacking. It deals little damage on its own and has slightly shorter range than Glintstone Pebble, but it cannot be dispelled or deflected and the Staff of Loss boosts it, which makes it a handy tool against evasive bosses such as Malenia. In PvP most casters prefer Swift Glintstone Shard for its higher damage and efficiency, so Night Shard suits night sorcery builds that value guaranteed, quick hits over raw power.
Effect
Swiftly fires a small semi invisible projectile that enemies do not try to dodge; it can be cast without delay after running, jumping, rolling or attacking. Each cast costs 7 FP and 9 stamina and takes up one memory slot.
