Pocketpair's Palworld, renowned for its expansive open-world exploration, offers a constant stream of mystical items and Pals. The Feybreak DLC significantly enhanced this aspect, introducing numerous crafting materials crucial for upgrading characters and Pal bases. One such valuable resource, Dark Fragments, is essential for crafting high-tier accessories. This guide clarifies how to obtain and utilize these elusive fragments.

How to Acquire Dark Fragments in Palworld

To gather Dark Fragments, focus on capturing or defeating Dark-elemental Pals exclusively found on Feybreak Island. This method is ineffective for Dark-elemental Pals in other game areas. Coastal Pals are typically ground or water types; venture inland to locate Dark-elemental Pals. Note that some, like Starryon, appear primarily at night unless they are boss variants.

Each defeated or captured Dark-elemental Pal yields 1-3 Dark Fragments on average. This isn't guaranteed per encounter, but consistent hunting should yield sufficient fragments.

The following Dark-elemental Pals drop Dark Fragments. Note that boss or predator variants exist in open areas and dungeons:

While less reliable, single Dark Fragments may randomly appear on Feybreak. Thorough exploration is recommended, though remember that frequent combat depletes ammo, potentially impacting other objectives like the Bjorn Tower Boss fight.
