Tarstones / 10 / FIELD NOTE
Mortal Shell 2 Tarstones: 75 Locations and Upgrades
Track all 75 Mortal Shell 2 Tarstones, the 73 required for Stoned, the missable Berserker’s Stone and the Etching Needles upgrade route.
75 exist; 73 are required
The launch guide lists 75 obtainable Tarstones, while the Stoned achievement requires 73. Support, Combat, Infusion and Ability Tarstones are equipment with passive, weapon-effect or weapon-specific attack roles.
Get Berserker’s Stone before the Heart of Vatra
Berserker’s Stone is the documented missable. At Temple of Vatra, open its offering chest by lighting two candles on the left and one on the right before taking the Heart of Vatra and leaving the area.
Unlock Tarstone upgrades
Etching Needles are in Glutted Mire after Sunken Village, in a chest near Ruk’s former position beyond The Wandering Shepherd route. Bring them to the Marrowkeep Tarforge; each Tarstone can be upgraded twice.
Use compatibility filters
Combat, Infusion and Ability Tarstones do not fit every weapon or sidearm. Choose the weapon first, then verify that the stone can be equipped rather than planning around a combination the menu rejects.
