Advice on Moldering Shards.
Apologies if this has been discussed before, I have tried to search but not found the answers I was looking for.
My question is, if I do the normal raid and kill Oryx but DO NOT use my 20 moldering shards on him. Can I then run hard mode and use them on Oryx hard mode and get extra drops?
I did hard mode last night and it didn't seem to take my moldering shards, but that could be because I had already used 20 in an earlier normal mode run. However Oryx hard still dropped 2 weapons.
Hope that makes sense, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I killed Oryx hard on my Warlock with 20 shards. I lost the shards and got a normal gun, normal helm, and HM chest.

4 RepliesThanks people. The general consensus I'm getting is shards aren't used in hard mode. Only normal. Wish I had known that before I grinded for hours getting 150+ hadium flakes so I should get my 20 shards and kill Oryx on hard lol. Guess I'll just use them on normal mode. Thanks again. If anyone has a different theory or experience then please do let me know.

1 ReplyHard mode doesnt ever take your shards.

6 RepliesShards work on normal only because hard oryx is already a guaranteed drop.

2 RepliesGood question but I'm pretty sure shards don't work in hard mode
