You only need two different ethereal elements on Ethereal Island to populate the island, and it really doesn't take THAT long.

I'm not sure what you mean by "after you have everything in the game." Are you saying that the option isn't available unless you "alread have everything?" Because I don't think that's accurate. I only have half of the double element Ethereals, don't have any torches permanently lit, and there are still seasonal monsters I don't have. I also don't have all my castles upgraded on the Vita version tham I'm also playing and can still exchange shards for diamonds.

I don't mean any disrespect, but it seems like YOU don't find diamonds useful anymore, but that's currently not true for myself and I assume many others.

I'm not even trying to start a fight here, we can agree to disagree. It was really just about pointing out to the original poster that shards DO have a purpose beyond that of decorations (which you had actually beaten me to by like, two minutes and I didn't see since I was likely reading/typing and hadn't refreshed when you posted.)
