Discover the Secrets to Acquiring Dark Fragments in Palworld

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

Palworld's expansive Feybreak DLC introduced a wealth of new crafting materials, including the enigmatic Dark Fragments. This guide will detail how to obtain and utilize these crucial components for crafting high-level gear.

How to Acquire Dark Fragments

Dark Fragments are exclusively found on Feybreak Island. To collect them, you must hunt or capture Dark-elemental Pals. Note that Dark Pals found outside Feybreak won't yield these fragments. Explore Feybreak's interior; the coastal areas primarily contain ground and water-type Pals. Some Dark Pals, like Starryon, are nocturnal, appearing only at night unless they are boss variants.

Capturing or defeating these Pals yields 1-3 Dark Fragments per encounter, though it's not a guaranteed drop. Efficient hunting is key to accumulating a sufficient supply.

Here's a list of Dark-elemental Pals and their approximate Dark Fragment drop rates:

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

Utilizing Dark Fragments in Crafting

Dark Fragments, while valuable, aren't used in a wide range of recipes. They are primarily components for specialized saddles, accessories for certain Pals, and enhanced boots for your character.

Below are the items crafted using Dark Fragments. Remember to unlock the schematics in the Technology Menu (or Ancient Technology Menu) using Technology Points before crafting. You'll also need the necessary machines and other materials.

This comprehensive guide should help you effectively locate and utilize Dark Fragments in your Palworld adventure.
