Rock-shell shards are dropped by Giant Rock Crabs and King Sand Crabs. These are used to make rock-shell plates by giving Skulgrimen 3 dagannoth hides, 10,000, and 1 rock-shell shard. Creating the plate requires completion of The Fremennik Trials.

It can also be exchanged with Askeladden on Waterbirth Island for cooked tuna before The Fremennik Trials or cooked lobster after the quest.

Giant rock crabs are found in the Waterbirth Island Dungeon, while King Sand Crabs are located within the south-eastern section of the Catacombs of Kourend. Players may find King Sand Crabs more favourable to kill for rock-shell parts, due to the lower melee defence; it should be noted, however, that Giant Rock Crabs have a -10 Magic defence bonus, which makes magic more effective on them.
