Players can also purchase the Cracked Crystals
If the player is having difficulty procuring the crystals they need for their crafting, they can purchase the Cracked Crystals directly from Twin Maiden Husks, located inside the Roundtable Hold.
This merchant will sell the player the Cracked Crystals directly for 300 runes per crystal. This may seem a bit pricy, and this is why it is recommended players find them on their own.
What can players craft with the Cracked Crystals?

Players can craft a few different recipes using Cracked Crystals. These items are:
- Shattershard Arrow
- Shattershard Arrow (Fletched)
- Cuckoo Glintstone
- Crystal Dart
Players can use these items to deal damage to opponents in combat. Particularly, they can use the Cuckoo Glintstone and Crystal dart by consuming FP to deal magical damage to enemies from afar. The Shattershard Arrows can also be used to deal damage from a bow to enemies at range.
How to get the recipes to craft items from Cracked Crystals
In Elden Ring, recipes are learned from items called Cookbooks. To learn how to craft the Cuckoo Glintstone, players need to obtain the Glintstone Craftsman's Cookbook (1), which a Noble can drop near an outpost northwest of Church of Irith.
The Crystal Dart is learned from the Nomadic Warrior Cookbook (11), which a Nomadic Merchant sells in Liurnia of the Lakes.
