How To Get Shard of Dawn Aspect in Diablo 4

You have until 2 January 2024 to get the Shard of Dawn Aspect. You can purchase one from the new Midwinter Blight NPC, Gileon, for 10 Midwinter Proofs.

Once you have 10 Midwinter Proofs, head to Midwinter Square in Kyovashad and speak to Gileon the Bard, then purchase a Shard of Dawn Legendary Aspect.
