In the vast world of Pocketpair's Palworld, the thrill of exploration never wanes. Since its explosive launch in January 2024, players have been captivated by the game's open-world adventures. The introduction of the expansive Feybreak DLC has only added to the excitement, bringing a slew of new crafting materials that can enhance your characters and Pal bases with cutting-edge technology.

Among the myriad items to discover, Dark Fragments stand out as a particularly elusive resource in Palworld. Unlike the more ubiquitous Paldium, Dark Fragments are crucial for crafting high-end accessories. If you're venturing into Feybreak, hunting for these fragments should be high on your agenda.

How to Get Dark Fragments in Palworld

To collect Dark Fragments in Palworld, focus your search on Dark-elemental Pals exclusively found on Feybreak. Note that these fragments are unique to this island, so you won't find them elsewhere. While the outer areas of Feybreak are dominated by ground and water-type Pals, head inland to encounter Dark-elemental creatures like Starryon, which are more active at night unless they're boss variants.

Capturing or defeating these Pals with your weapon and a high-tier Pal Sphere, such as Ultimate or Exotic, will yield an average of 1-3 Dark Fragments. Keep in mind that drops aren't guaranteed, but by efficiently tracking down Dark Pals, you can amass a good stock of fragments.

Here's a list of Dark-elemental Pals on Feybreak that drop Dark Fragments:

Occasionally, you might stumble upon single Dark Fragments scattered across Feybreak. Exploring thoroughly can help you gather these, though it's less reliable than hunting Dark Pals. Be mindful of your ammo, as you'll need it for tougher challenges like the island's Tower Boss, Bjorn.

How to Use Dark Fragments in Palworld

Accumulating Dark Fragments in Palworld can be challenging, but their utility is focused rather than widespread. They're essential for crafting specialized items like saddles and accessories for certain Pals, as well as advanced mobility gear for your character.

Here's a rundown of what you can craft with Dark Fragments. Remember, you'll need to unlock the schematics in your Technology or Ancient Technology Menu using Technology Points. Additionally, ensure you have the necessary machines to craft these items.
