Ironman verdict
Crystal shard is a members item. It cannot be traded, so every account, Ironman or not, gets it the same way. We list 9 monsters and 8 other sources for it.
The lowest-level monster that drops it is Moss Giant (Iorwerth Dungeon) (level 84), at 1/24, about one in 24 kills. The best rate is from Insatiable mutated Bloodveld (level 278): Always, 6–10 at a time. The 9 monsters we list with a combat level range from level 84 to 374. It also comes from 8 other sources, such as Teak tree and Iron rocks.
Among the bosses we cover, Zalcano drops it.
It is a material in 18 recipes, for example Crystal dust, Celestial signet (70 Smithing, 70 Crafting) and Crystal helm (70 Smithing, 70 Crafting).
