How to Get Nightstar Sand In Palworld

As a seasoned adventurer who’s traversed many a strange and wondrous land, I can wholeheartedly say that Nightstar Sand is one of the most valuable resources you’ll come across in Palworld. This luminescent mineral isn’t just pretty to look at; it’s the key ingredient in crafting some of the game’s most powerful weapons and gear.

Since the debut of Pocketpair’s Palworld in January 2024, players worldwide have been captivated by its creature capture underdog gameplay and the abundance of thrilling content it provides for its dedicated fanbase. The Feybreak DLC, released as the most expansive project yet, showcases a vast new island teeming with various vibrant ecosystems and an array of novel crafting resources. Many of these resources can be discovered during exploration, while others require careful hunting to uncover their hidden locations.

One of the elusive substances for crafting is Nightstar Sand, a material that doesn’t lay exposed during daytime hours. If you’ve been struggling to locate this resource in Palworld, the key lies in its very name – just look towards its namesake to uncover where it can be found.

How to Get Nightstar Sand in Palworld

In the game Palworld, Nightstar Sand is a material that can be found exclusively during nighttime hours. This means you’ll have to wait for the sun to set over Palpagos before you can collect it. Interestingly, this resource can only be found in two locations on the map – Feybreak and Sand Dunes. If your memory needs a refresh, the Sand Dunes is the vast desert island located far northeast, home to the Tower Boss Marcus and his companion Faleris, the bird sidekick. On the other hand, reaching Feybreak Island requires a journey from the southern coast of Mount Obsidian.

Gathering Nightstar Sand is likely more convenient on Feybreak Island, due to the numerous clusters of nodes along its coastlines, making it less necessary to explore inland. Additionally, since it only emerges at night, you can collect as much as desired while most companions are asleep. However, there are anti-aircraft towers scattered throughout the island that prevent using flying companions until they’re deactivated.

To locate the Nightstar Sand nodes during the night in a beach area, search for areas of sand that seem luminescent. Every glowing patch is a node; simply approach one, interact with it, and collect the Nightstar Sand it offers. After collection, the node will disappear, allowing you to proceed to the next one. These nodes can be used until daybreak, at which point you’ll need to wait for nightfall again to gather more.

If you often run out of Nightstar Sand while crafting at your bases, keep in mind that you can modify the length of both day and night periods in your World Settings from the Main Menu. This extension of time will allow you more opportunity to explore each location and gather as much Nightstar Sand as possible during a single expedition. Since each unit of Nightstar Sand weighs only 1.0, if you have a high carrying capacity, you can transport a significant amount back to your base for future use.

On Feybreak Island, you’ll find several key clusters of Nightstar Sand in the specified locations that are both named and coordinated for your convenience. These areas regenerate every day, allowing you to revisit them whenever suits you.
