 === Pretender Kills for Shards ===
-In [[Serengeti Blockade]] you can find five [[Olympus Missions|missions]], Pretender Hermes, Pretender Ares, Pretender Poseidon, and so on. Completing these will give you the keys to enter each branch of Olympus and fight the Pretenders themselves. Upon receiving the keys, you are given a new mission, to kill that specific Pretender that you just got the key of (or all of them, if you completed them all). This will give you an entire shard of that specific Pretender after killing them and returning, and is repeatable.
+In [[Olympus Entrance]] you can find five [[Olympus Missions|missions]], Pretender Hermes, Pretender Ares, Pretender Poseidon, and so on. The missions are to kill that specific Pretender.  Completion will reward you three boss shards of that specific Pretender.
 The shards you get from killing each Pretender:
-* [[Pretender Hermes]] - [[Swift Shard]]
+* [[Pretender Hermes]] - [[Swift Shard]] x 3
-* [[Pretender Ares]] - [[Strife Shard]]
+* [[Pretender Ares]] - [[Strife Shard]] x 3
