Barronite shards 25 detail.png

Barronite shards are collected throughout the Ruins of Camdozaal, below the Ice Mountain. They are the fuel for the Sacred Forge and are thus currency for Ramarno's Shard Exchange, which has several different buffs that apply when performing actions inside the ruins.

Four to six shards are gained per mining action, which can also occasionally yield a barronite deposit that can be crushed on the anvil near Ramarno for more shards.

Barronite shards can also be stored in the Sacred Forge, either directly or by using the shards on Ramarno. While stored in the forge, the shards can be used as fuel to gain entrance to the Camdozaal Vault or spent in Ramarno's Shard Exchange. Upon entering the Camdozaal Vault, 750 Barronite shards are deducted from the Sacred Forge.

A barronite mace can be crafted by handing a barronite guard, a barronite head, a barronite handle, and 1,500 Barronite shards to Ramarno. Shards stored in the Sacred Forge will not count towards this.

Players can use a broken Imcando hammer on Ramarno to repair it at a cost of 1,250 Barronite shards. As with the mace, shards already stored in the Sacred Forge will not count towards this.

Buying all 5 permanent buffs from Ramarno's Shard Exchange, crafting one barronite mace, and repairing one Imcando hammer requires 15,750 Barronite shards.
