Palworld's Dark Fragments: A Comprehensive Guide
Palworld's expansive Feybreak DLC introduces a wealth of crafting materials, including the elusive Dark Fragments. This guide details how to acquire and utilize these crucial components.
Obtaining Dark Fragments
Dark Fragments are exclusively found on Feybreak Island and are obtained by capturing or defeating Dark-elemental Pals. Unlike other regions, Pals on the outer beaches and gravel areas are typically not Dark-elemental. Venture inland to increase your chances of encountering them. Note that some Pals, like Starryon, are only found at night unless they are boss variants.
Each captured or defeated Dark-elemental Pal yields 1-3 Dark Fragments, though this is not guaranteed per encounter. Efficient hunting of these Pals is key to accumulating a sufficient supply.
Here's a list of Dark-elemental Pals and their Dark Fragment drop rates:
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) | 1-2 x Dark Fragments |
Rampaging Starryon | 1-2 x Dark Fragments |
Omascul (Hundred-Faced Apostle) | 1-2 x Dark Fragments |
Splatterina (Crismon Butcher) | 2-3 x Dark Fragments |
Dazzi Noct (Born of the Thunderclouds) | 1 x Dark Fragment |
Kitsun Noct (Guardian of the Dark Flame) | 1-2 x Dark Fragments |
Rampaging Omascul | 1-2 x Dark Fragments |
Rampaging Splatterina | 2-3 x Dark Fragments |
While rare, single Dark Fragments can sometimes be found randomly scattered across Feybreak. Thorough exploration is recommended.
Utilizing Dark Fragments
Dark Fragments, while valuable, are not used in a vast array of recipes. They are primarily components in crafting specialized saddles, accessories for specific Pals, and enhanced boots for your character.

- Unlocked Schematics: Obtain these from the Technology Menu (or Ancient Technology Menu) using Technology Points (or Ancient Technology Points).
- Necessary Machines: Construct the required machines to process the materials.
- Materials: Gather all required materials, including Dark Fragments.
