Logbook Description
"Solar Shards suffer the same flaw as their lunar counterparts, but the power inside them burns far hotter. A Lunar Shard weeps its light away slowly. A Solar Shard splits open, and the sunlight trapped within forces its way out through the cracks, hardening into its signature golden crystal along its shoulder."
Appearance
The Solar Shard takes the appearance of a charred humanoid made out of a purple rocky material, with several cracks being visible that contain sunlight within them. Its main defining feature is the large sun inside its torso.
Strategy
- As it has quite low health, most towers are able to deal with it rather easily.
- AOE towers like the Snowballer, Golden Demoman, Demoman or Mortar are best used against it
- Other towers like the Golden Scout, Toxic Gunner, Trapper or Golden Pyromancer can also be used.

Trivia
- Unlike the Solar Shard from the Solar Eclipse Event, this enemy does not have the unique ability to spawn a Dust enemy upon death.
