Taking the form of a crystal-like structure similar to Greenshine, Brimshine will have the appearance of an orange crystal sticking out of the ground. Alternatively, there are shards or slivers or Brimshine you can also find. Whether it is a crystal or a shard is directly correlated to the amount of Brimshine you receive. This material not only allows you to craft/upgrade new weapons and outfits, it can also be used to trade with certain merchants.
