About
The term refers to the the shiny glow around the "?" marks scattered randomly on the ground that players can target to pick the collectible up.
 * Players use their Collecting skill to pick the items up, so it may take a few tries to pick them up on a new character with low skills.
 * Because it's colloquial term, there is debate about whether the plural is shinys or shinies.
 * Shinies come in many colors and types and in some cases, you must complete collections to see those with unique colors.
 * Most Live Events have purple shinies.
