At the moment echo shards are one of the most common things in one of the rarest structures in the game, and are used for literally one crafting recipe for a compass that is largely unused by most players.
to fix this I have made and found a few suggestions for new uses for the echo shards (some of which are common suggestions) :
armor trim color: this would allow echo shards to be used like amethyst shards are for armor trims to create dark blue color that potentially glows slightly.
echo horns: this would be a horn that highlights all entities within a given radius around the user, as well as silverfish stone OR could be an item that creates a loud noise that briefly stuns nearby mobs, still on a cool down like regular horns to prevent it from being too powerful
a banner pattern: seeing as how the trial chambers are getting banner patterns i think it would be fair to give the ancient city one crafted using the echo shard, potentially resembling three circles from the shrieker, or the mouth of a warden.
firework effects: this would stagger the amount of charges in the firework evenly, so if there were three charges in a firework, the first would active 1/3 of the way, then the next 2/3, and the last at the end.
map trails: some kind of locator item that tracks the holders' path on a map while it's in inventory so the player can see exactly the path they've taken (admittedly this is the weakest idea)
