Throne and Liberty is set for many drastic changes across the board, beginning with the upcoming launch of the Wilds of Talandre expansion and extending well into the following months.

This, in turn, makes the best-in-slot gear chase from these Dungeons additionally difficult, which is why the developers included a fallback option should players turn out to be unlucky.

Currently, there are two types of Dimensional Soul Shards in-game, with the blue-hued ones dropping from 1-star Dungeons and the red-hued ones obtained from the 2-star Dungeons. With the upcoming 3-star Dungeons, this would’
