Silksong Mask Shards are items that boost your maximum health, with a total of 20 scattered throughout the map. Since you need to collect four Mask Shards to increase your health by one, finding all 20 means you can add five more health points, effectively doubling your health bar. If you feel a bit fragile during Silksong, here’s a complete list of where to find each Mask Shard, along with what abilities you’ll need and how far along in the game you should be.
