Conversion To Common Incarnate Component

While 4 shards can be converted into any common incarnate component it should be noted that once the level 4 alpha slot power of choice has been achieved excess components can be broken down into just 1 shard. Therefore if you have the patience a policy of acquiring each required common incarnate component through the appropriate Task Force or Strike Force (where possible) is more efficient than converting shards to make them.

How to Get

Incarnate Shard Components will only drop for characters who have completed Mender Ramiel's story arc (which itself grants one Incarnate Shard) and unlocked the Alpha Slot. Note that a boost does not need to be slotted, but the slot must be unlocked.

Successfully defeating the Hamidon gives the option of four Incarnate Shards.

As of the April 5th, 2011 patch, any non-gray enemy can have a chance to drop Incarnate Shards; the drop rate has not been stated officially, but based on over fourteen thousand defeats, an approximate number is available:

Note that Shards do not drop from enemies defeated in the streets of or story content of Dark Astoria.
