Palworld: How to Get Dark Fragment

Palworld's Dark Fragments: A Guide to Finding and Using This Elusive Material

Pocketpair's Palworld, with its expansive open world and mystical creatures, continues to captivate players. The Feybreak DLC added numerous crafting materials, including the enigmatic Dark Fragments. This guide will detail how to obtain and utilize this crucial resource for crafting high-level equipment.

How to Acquire Dark Fragments

Dark Fragments are exclusively found on Feybreak Island. To obtain them, you must capture or defeat Dark-elemental Pals. Note that Dark-elemental Pals from other islands will not drop Dark Fragments. You'll need to venture inland from the coastal areas, as the beach and gravel areas primarily contain ground and water-type Pals. Some Pals, like Starryon, are only found at night unless they are boss variants.

Each captured or defeated Dark-elemental Pal yields 1-3 Dark Fragments, though it's not a guaranteed drop. Efficient hunting is key to accumulating a sufficient supply.

The following Dark-elemental Pals drop Dark Fragments (drop rates are approximate):

While rare, single Dark Fragments can sometimes be found randomly scattered across Feybreak. Thorough exploration is recommended.

Utilizing Dark Fragments in Crafting

Dark Fragments are a relatively specialized crafting material. They are primarily used to create high-end saddles, accessories for certain Pals, and advanced boots for your character.

Remember to unlock the necessary schematics in your Technology Menu (or Ancient Technology Menu) using Technology Points before you can craft these items. You will also need the appropriate machines and other resources.
