One of the several quests in Brighter Shores‘ main storyline involves finding a Giant Crystal in the Hopeforest location, and this mission can be pretty hard to complete.
The nature of the quests changes radically once you get to the second episode, and Hopefrost is filled with corruption. Driving the corruption away can be a difficult job, and you’ll realize that as soon as you find the Giant Crystal of the corruption. That said, knowing what to do will make your life a lot easier.
All Giant Crystal items locations in Brighter Shores
The Giant Crystal of Hopeforest is part of the Nullify the Corruption Quest, and it requires you to find some specific item. This quest is part of the main storyline, so you can’t miss it by any chance. Before starting the quest, make sure to open the Magic Cave and pick a faction of your liking.
This process will make you interact with a Dryad, without whom opening the Magic C🐟ave is impossible. Make sure that your Woodcutter profession is at least at level 8 and Scout is at least at level 20. Y😼ou are also going to need plenty of potions, so make sure to stock them up.
Once done, head to the Crystal Clearing location. Here, you’ll find the Giant Crystal and your fellow guards, who are all under the negative influence of corruption. Once you dispose of the threats, the Dryad will instruct you to find specific items to get rid of the corruption.
Getting the two Glowing Beetles is easy, as you can find them in the surrounding areas. The remai🤪ning items will be much harder to find.
| Item | Location | How to find |
|---|---|---|
| Glowing Mushroom | This item is located in the Mushroom Grove, which can be found by going west to the Overgrown Trail. Then go south through the Bramble Path, and you’ll be where you need to be. | Just pick up the mushroom and add it to your inventory. |
| Glowing Fern | This item is located near Hopeforest Ferry, and you’ll actually have to repair the ferry. For this, you’ll need two As Logs. Then, take the logs to the Carpenter’s Workshop and convert them into Ash Planks. Add the four Ash Planks to your inventory, and take the road to Mine Road West. Then, head south through the Tree Lined Trail and Tree Lined track. | Once you repair the ferry, you’ll be attacked by a Giant Newt. Avoid the orange colored tiles unless you want to take damage and get stunned. You can attack the Newt once it attacks and comes to the surface. After a few hits, it will go back into the water, and then the process repeats. Just complete it a few times to kill the Giant Newt. Once the creature is defeated, the ferry will take you to a small area across the river with two zones. Pick up the Glowing Fern and add it to your inventory. |
| Glowing Honey | To get this item, head north from the Hopeforest Central Portal Stone (where you teleported to after picking up the Glowing Fern). Once you reach Stump Clearing, turn left, and go to Bear Clearing. Once again, head north and cross the bridge to reach Two Headed Bear Clearing. | The Glowing Honey can be found hanging from a tree, but you’ll have to defeat the Two-Headed Bear before you can attempt to retrieve this resource. The key is to avoid a special attack, which can do a lot of damage. Once you manage to defeat the bear, you can collect the honey in a Jar (make sure to carry it with you). |
Once you have completed collecting all the items, go back to the Giant Crystal, and clear it of the corruption. This will progress the main story of Brighter Shores, and puts you in the brink of unlocking the next chap📖ter.
