How to unlock the Shard Shark achievement in Agents of Mayhem - Definitive Guide

This achievement will be awarded for collecting all 350 crystal shards.

I've created an interactive map including all 350 of them.
http://swissgameguides.com/agents-of-mayhem/maps/world

I've also started adding screenshots (still WIP) for each shard that will show you the location and how to reach it. It should also help you to check on whether you've collected it or not.

Notes:
- Crystal shards are the small red glowing spikes that can be found all over the city.
- Some shards are quite well hidden in bushes and holograms or in some offices inside the taller buildings of the city.
- Personally, I've used Fortune to collect all shards - so she can definitely reach all shards with her jump/dash ability.
- Collecting all shards in one go should take you ~3-5 hours.
- Some shards require you to use the purple-white looking platforms that can be found near the rooftops of the taller buildings. Hack the nearby stations (use scan ability to find them) to activate the platforms.
- Two shards require you to ride a specific yellow bot/airship in order to reach it.
- Your progress will be saved right after collecting a shard.
- For additional help, check requisitions on the ark and purchase the following two agency upgrades: 1) Retro Extendable Antenna - Increases Scan Range (Lvl 6); 2) Dark Matter Resonance Detector - Scanning can now find nearby Crystal Shards (Lvl 18).
- The interactive map isn't very mobile friendly. I recommend using a desktop/laptop to view it.

In case you find any mistakes, please let me know so I can fix/improve it on the map. ;-)

Credits: Thanks to YukikoSnow on reddit for providing the location for the last shard.

No fucking way.

What game in this day in age doesn't show them on the map by the end of the game. Is this Crackdown 1? 😓😓😓😓

I dont think I'll have the patience to trawl every nook and cranny.

small request, add crystal numbers to the map or a way to remove ones from the map that we have already collected. that way we dont go to one we already collected.

Yeah, I'm stuck 349 as well. I opened the map up in photoshop and used the paint bucket tool to color the ones I had green. Knowing my luck, I've probably marked one that I didn't actually have yet. Thinking about wiping my save data so I can follow along with the guide from the beginning.
EDIT: Yep, that did it. Boy that was boring. Watch them add crystal icons to the map in a future update.

It might be worth mentioning that the scanner will only track a certain distance both horizontally and vertically (its probably a bubble around you character) My last shard did not show up on the map when I was on the ground. When I started climbing up some of the tower blocks it appeared
For the record the last shard was in a tower next to under construction area (with loads of high buildings) in the eastern area between the science park? and centre of the map
+1 by the way

It should be noted that when you are near a shard, there is a hum that intensifies as you get closer. The sound is 3-dimensional so it really helps in locating these. I was using headphones so this made it clearer.

One shard is not where it's supposed to be for me! It's the one you need to jump onto the highest floating platform and ride it over to another building. Shard is just not there!

Your map was a good help but the one in the link helped me find my last shard as it highlighted the position of the shards - underground, jumping distance and top of buildings. Its hard to see on the map but on the east bridge near the top of the map there are 2 shards, one at the top of the bridge and one underneath.

Doesn't seem anyone has mentioned this: with all the upgrades for searching for the shards you can spam the scanner as you move around and then check you city map. If you do this the shards will show up and you can make a way point for them directing you to them easily. Made it super easy to find the 40 I was missing.

hi, personally i found your solution not complet... your map help but some points doesn't work we don't see the screenshot, the second thing, you told " - Two shards require you to ride a specific yellow bot/airship in order to reach it. "

but i don't see a video where you explain the way to obtain this shards ...

i need 1 shard and i need to jump on the airship but i failed at each time ...

I appreciate the work you put into the interactive map, rather sad that it's incomplete and doesn't show how to get any of the super difficult ones at the top of huge sky scrapers though :(

Oddly enough I did this and found another one on the map by my 350th there way be a few extras laying around or it’s possible the ones you get from opening crates count towards the 350 but I’m just happy it’s over

Thanks for the map! +1 from me. One of the worst sets of collectibles I’ve ever done but a few things that I noticed:

Once you have the ‘Dark Matter Resonance Scanner’ upgrade finding them is a breeze. I used the guide and did the map in sections by block.

I don’t know if this came in a later update, but you can choose a shard on the map as a waypoint and it will highlight it on your hud as a big red triangle. All shards show on the map regardless of vertical height, as long as you are within 150 metres of them horizontally.

I got all of them using Fortune/Pierce’s dash jump jump dash jump combo which can take you insane distances. For ones that were slightly higher Scheherazade can scale up much higher on buildings than anyone else can. I didn’t need to use the airships at all to reach any of them.

Part 1) 1-150 Shards

Part 2) 151-300 Shards

Part 3) 301-350 Shards

Thanks to " SGTGUNYOUTOHELL " for helping find some of the shards for the last video!

For those who are still playing or going to be starting this game, you can indeed get all of the shards as soon as you start the game with the first three agents (Hollywood, Fortune, Hardtack). I would recommend to do this as the first thing you do so that you don't accidentally collect shards as you're playing through the missions and forget which ones you collected when you come back to do this. You can use Hardtack to get an additional vertical boost to get to higher ledges; press the left stick against a wall and he'll stick his harpoon in it to get a higher boost upwards. He can't dash in the air though so switch to one of the other two when you need horizontal distance.

Also, shard 345 in the third video appears to have been moved by one of the patches to the game. For me it was not on the tall building that you have to ride the hovercraft to; it was on a crane slightly to the east of that building. Several other people in the YouTube video comments confirmed this as well. So save yourself the trouble of waiting around for the hovercraft because the shard isn't there.

Things to note : patch on 9/11 if you scan, then check your map it will highlight shards and you can select them as waypoints. This helped me get my last 8 shards :)
Also the tall roof with all the trees on .. the video shows people jumping on the top of the spikey buildings then jumping on the barge that moves left to right (W to E), jump on the right to left one instead. (E to W) It's shorter distance to rooftop garden, plus i was finding i was phasing through the barge on the right to left one.

Ugh. Spent 2 hours time trying to get the one that requires the diamond roofed buildings and the yellow barge. Got to the rooftop and shard wasn't there. I'm not the only one, either.

^I'm down to one. There's always one little bastard, ain't there? I really hate how they did the map stuff for this. Not only do the shards disappear from the map if you aren't in range, there's no quick button to bring the damn map up. It's far more of a pain in the ass than it should be. That's not to mention that those frickin' targets of opportunity don't stay gone and you don't have a method of filtering the damn map.

There are 350 shard to collect in Seoul, none of them are missable but some of them are unobtainable with certain agents. You need to put an agent that can climb walls in your squad and another one that can dash (Scheherazade and Kingpin are perfect for that). The 1.03 patch make the shards appear on the map when you are close, but it doesn't seem to help much with the ones on the top of buildings. It's probably best to follow some videos or you might have to scour the city for hours to find the last one.

This map made by SwissGameGuides can help you find the shards.

But if you prefer a video guide, you can follow these videos made by Trevis Games:
