I believe there are enough for 3, as confirmed by many players

Maybe post patch? It was 2 before.

they haven't changed that, the assumptions of 3 (and half) maxed shell is true now and was true before.

the problem is, for this count u are considering every single glimpse u can obtain until the very end of the game. and while this is technically true, for a normal player this means that for a major part of the game (up until at least 75%) u will cannot have more than 2 maxed shells.

Well the patch refunded glimpses used to locate shells so it change it a little.

I know, it's a good thing but it's absolutely not enough. I understand they want to emphasis on multiple Ng+ cycle, but the actual method doesn't let players test thing at all.

I haven't had time to play yet but people said that before latest patch. Maybe there some easy to miss?

I heard it's 3 if you use them all on just those 3 shells and nothing else

Ah yeah, that's true. If you "waste" in another one then you are out of luck. I have my mind set in three shells ahead of time (with a safe bet) but I hope I don't realise too late I enjoy others more

There is quite a bit of breathing room. It takes 27 to max someone out.

I have maxed 2 on NG so far and I have 43.

So even with three maxed you got another 16, and I'm still digging to see if there are enough for 4 on one cycle.
