The best thing about these milestone tasks is that you’ll often find yourself completing them without even realizing it, as they’re all actions that you’ll perform while working through the game’s Realm Quests, Story Quests, and Friendship Quests.

While this is definitely the quickest way, we’d advise against doing it unless you’re desperate. Dream Shards are quite rare, and you’ll need them to complete some quests in the future, so it’s always good to keep some safely stored away.
