Seek Seaward Cliffs By The Brewery Town Skyshard

Guide:
Northern central Malabal Tor, north of Vulkwasten Wayshrine, northern Vulkwasten.

This shard is located close to Mammoth farm in northern Vulkwasten settlement. This is where you go to talk with Alphrost for quest “Something Rotten“. There is a Noglanor’s House at this location. Collectible is on the edge, overlooking the nearby shore and Jagged Grotto POI (epic enemy).

Fell From A Bridge Fleeing Abamath Skyshard

Guide:
South central Malabal Tor, west of Bloodtoil Wayshrine.

You can find this shard next to a large wooden bridge that connects Tanglehave POI island with an island south of it. If you are casually swimming in water around this area it is not that hard to spot this brightly shining collectible. For me it was, a sort of, a lucky find. It happened while I was swimming back to Bone Grappler’s Nest from Bloodtoil Wayshrine to die for the second time.

On the shore, close to a large wooden bridge, west of Bloodtoil Wayshrine.

Search Every Nook To Lift The Vale Skyshard

Guide:
Eastern Malabal Tor, southeast of Valeguard Wayshrine, within Valeguard.

This shard is at the bottom of the large Valeguard tree. It is rather easy to spot if you approach Valeguard from the main south road. It stands in a corner, between a huge tree and nearby mountain rocks. If, for some reason, you reach Valeguard from north, and start climbing to its top, you can miss it without even noticing. There is a rather large bridge that almost completely covers this shard from above.

Approach Valeguard’s tree via the south road.

It is far easier to spot the collectible in the corner, when coming from south, than from the tree bridge above, when coming from north.

Eyed From A Islet In The River Skyshard

Guide:
Northeastern Malabal Tor, southeast of the most northern wayshrine – Wilding Run Wayshrine.

You can find this collectible on the western coast of a nearby river. Its location is just northwest of the large lake island nearby – where Four Quarry Islet POI is (eye icon). If you are following the coast from north you are going to walk by Black Vine Ruins dungeon and Silvenar Vale Dolmen.

Shard, itself, is on top of a small boulder and is guarded by three hostile leopards.

Going south, follow the coastline southeast of Wilding Run Wayshrine.

Doing so will eventually lead you here.

Follow The Sound Of The Wilding Waves Skyshard

Guide:
Northern Malabal Tor, northwest of Wilding Run Wayshrine just southwest of Windshriek Strand (eye icon POI).

On the middle of a large cliff platform that overlooks the nearby shore is where this shard is located. You can approach it from north and east. Map area where this collectible is found is marked with brown color. Shard is next to a large, lonely, tree. If you reach the top of this platform you can find the lorebook “The Totems of Hircine” as well.

Withered Within The Vine Skyshard

Guide:
Northeastern Malabal Tor, north of Black Vine Ruins, just east of Wilding Run Wayshrine.

Shard at this location is found inside Black Vine Ruins – public dungeon. Entrance to this dungeon is from a nearby river. This is a level 37 dungeon, where group of two and three mobs are common. To collect this piece, you have to reach the southernmost part of the dungeon. It’s inside this small room, at the center of what appears to be a sacrificial stand.


Quest “Brothers and Bandits” that you can pick up at the start of the dungeon from Daine NPC has some interesting story.

Find and enter Black Vine Ruins solo dungeon.

Dropped Off When He Still Lived Skyshard

Guide:
Northwestern Malabal Tor, far north of Dra’Bul Wayshrine.

This shard is inside Dead Man’s Drop solo dungeon. Its entrance is overlooking the nearby shore. “Pirates of the Abecean” lorebook can be found at the entrance of the cave.
Another shard that had its location moved due to post-launch changes. Now, you can find it in the northwestern part of the dungeon. It is located on a high cave platform. You should follow the path in the eastern part of the cave to reach this spot.

Find and enter Dead Man’s Drop solo dungeon.

A rather epic cave formation is also found nearby.

Property Of Parasites Skyshard

Guide:
Western central Malabal Tor, between Vulkwasten Wayshrine (to the east) and Dra’Bul Wayshrine (to the west).

Found inside Hoarvor Pit solo dungeon. Entrance to this dungeon is north of nearby main road. This is part of the main road that connects eastern with central Malabal Tor. Once you enter the dungeon and open up the map, you should spot a large pond in the northern part of the dungeon. This is where the skyshard is located. Watch out for nearby hostile crocodiles.

Surroundings in the northern part of the cave.

Fungus Dwellers Dig, Far From Home Skyshard

Guide:
Eastern central Malabal Tor, southern Silvenar (fortress icon POI), west of Valeguard Wayshrine.

Skyshard is inside Roots of Silvenar solo dungeon. There’s a small path that starts from a nearby river and an interestingly looking boat and leads to the dungeon entrance. It’s in the largest cave room, next to the pond, rather close to the dungeon entrance. It is hard to miss if you are inside this room, as its location in the middle of the area dominates the surroundings.

Part Of Arrai’s Spectral Dominion Skyshard

Guide:
Southernmost point of Malab Tor, south of nearby Abamath Wayshrine, inside Shael Ruins solo dungeon

Cave’s entrance is next to a river and a tall waterfall. Like the other Malabal Tor solo dungeons, this one has also been through a change. This change also reflects the new location of the skyshard. It has been moved to the southernmost room, onto the stone platform, next to the other stone pieces like the chair, table, etc.
