Where to Find Dark Fragments in Palworld

As someone who’s spent countless hours traipsing across the sprawling landscapes of Palworld since its launch, I can confidently say that the Feybreak DLC has taken my obsession to new heights – and not just because it introduced towering Tower Bosses like the colossal Bjorn. The elusive Dark Fragments have become a veritable treasure hunt for me, hidden deep within the heart of this mysterious island.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but marvel at the abundance of enigmatic artifacts and companions waiting to be uncovered in Pocketpair’s Palworld. The game’s breathtaking open-world exploration has been a captivating draw since its unprecedented launch in January 2024, keeping players enthralled ever since. To make things even more exciting, the massive Feybreak DLC added a wealth of new crafting materials for us to scour and utilize, enhancing our characters and Pal bases with cutting-edge technology like never before.

One particular item in Palworld that can remain elusive if you don’t know where to look is Dark Fragments. Not to be confused with the game’s far more common Paldium resource, this ominous crafting material is essential for making certain high-end accessories, so finding it on Feybreak should be one of your priorities.

How to Get Dark Fragments in Palworld

To gather Dark Fragments in Palworld, explore Feybreak island thoroughly for any Dark-elemental creatures. Remember that this method doesn’t apply to Dark-elemental Pals discovered in other game regions, as Dark Fragments are exclusive to Feybreak. Since the majority of Pals found along the outer beach and gravel areas are ground and water types, you’ll likely need to venture deeper into Feybreak’s interior to find Dark-elemental Pals. Notably, a Pal called Starryon can only be found at night or as a boss variant.

When you manage to defeat or subdue them using your weapon and preferred Pal Sphere (either the Ultimate or Exotic Spheres are ideal), they often yield an average of 1-3 Dark Fragments. Keep in mind that these fragments aren’t always given with each capture or kill. However, by effectively tracking down as many Dark Pals as you can, you should be able to amass a decent number of Dark Fragments from your endeavors.

You can obtain Dark Fragments by either subduing or defeating these Dark-elemental companions. Keep in mind that some of them might be bosses or predators, which you may encounter in open regions or dungeons within Feybreak.

Pal Name Drop Rate
Starryon 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Omascul 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Splatterina 2-3 x Dark Fragments
Dazzi Noct 1 x Dark Fragment
Kitsun Noct 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Starryon (Midnight Blue Mane; Boss) 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Rampaging Starryon (Predator Pal) 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Omascul (Hundred-Faced Apostle; Boss) 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Splatterina (Crismon Butcher; Boss) 2-3 x Dark Fragments
Dazzi Noct (Born of the Thunderclouds; Boss) 1 x Dark Fragment
Kitsun Noct (Guardian of the Dark Flame; Boss) 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Rampaging Omascul (Predator Pal) 1-2 x Dark Fragments
Rampaging Splatterina (Predator Pal) 2-3 x Dark Fragments

Occasionally, a solitary Dark Fragment may be found scattered across Feybreak at unpredictable locations, which makes it worthwhile to thoroughly search the island. Engaging in random battles excessively will eventually deplete your ammo supply, a resource you might want to conserve for difficult tasks like battling Bjorn, the formidable Tower Boss. This exploration could potentially lead to valuable finds that can help you tackle such challenges more effectively.

How to Use Dark Fragments in Palworld

In the game Palworld, accumulating a substantial quantity of Dark Fragments can be challenging, yet it’s not a versatile crafting material for numerous technology recipes. Instead, it’s primarily employed in crafting unique items like saddles and accessories for specific Pals, as well as some character boots that enable dash and jumping abilities.

In all, Dark Fragments can be used to craft the following items. Remember that you must first unlock the schematic for the item via your Technology Menu (or Ancient Technology Menu) using Technology Points. From there, you will also need the appropriate machines built to supply all of the materials needed for the item as well as crafting the item itself.

Triple Jump Boots Level 58 in Ancient Technology Menu (3 Ancient Technology Points Required; Must defeat Feybreak Tower boss)
