While capturing the best Pals and engaging in intense battles inPalworldsounds thrilling, the game isn’t just about fighting. The survival and crafting mechanics play a significant role as well. As you level up, having only the strongest Pals in your team won’t be enough—you’ll also need to keep up with them.

That’s why crafting the best equipment is essential. Additionally, building new technologies in your base to maximize production is crucial. However, not all materials required for crafting are easy to obtain, and some cannot be produced at all. In this guide, we’ll cover how to acquire one such material: Dark Fragment.

The player is checking the Dark Fragments on his inventory in Palworld.

How To Get Dark Fragment

Since the Pals on this island are over level 50 and theanti-aircraft missiles on the islandmake it quite challenging, you should come well-prepared. The table below lists the Pals with a chance to drop Dark Fragments and their locations on Feybreak Island:

Additionally,farming the Alpha Boss versions of these Pals can be beneficialfor obtaining Dark Fragments. Since some of the Pals that drop Dark Fragments spawn at night,heading out during nighttime is a logical strategy.Starting from the Oculus Gate, Tower in Sight fast travel point and creating a farming route heading southwest is a good idea.

To maximize your Dark Fragment gain,instead of killing these Pals, capture them.Then, butcher the captured Pals using aMeat Cleaveror a Pal Disassembly Conveyor. This will yield more Dark Fragments compared to simply killing them.

If you want to gather even more Dark Fragments, you canincrease the Pal Appearance Rate to threein the World Settings. This will allow you to encounter more Pals with a chance to drop Dark Fragments, giving you more opportunities to defeat or capture them.

Remember, if you want to gain an advantage in battles against Dark-element Pals, make sure to bring Dragon-type Pals with you. Their type advantage will help you defeat them with ease.
