Soul Shards Recipes

Soul Cage

The Soul Cage is an empty conduit for monster souls. Once imbued with energy using a Soul Shard, mobs will begin spawning from the Soul Cage until it runs out of charge. When you harvest the cage you will get a shard back of the appropriate tier. In addition mobs spawned from cages will drop items even if not killed by a player (not including rare drops). For instance blaze will drop their items even if killed by water.

Soul Shard

The Soul Shard is a portable crystal that absorbs the souls of hostile monsters you kill. Keep this item in your hotbar to charge it as you hunt. Right click on a Soul Cage to imbue the cage with the shard. You lose the shard in the process. Monsters spawned from a Soul Cage will not charge your shard.

Use your soul charge on a vanilla monster spawner of it’s type to get a full tier increase.

Soul Shards have 5 tiers. Each tier gives progressively better spawning capabilities once imbued into the Soul Cage.
