Where to Find Starryon in Palworld?
There are three main ways to get your hands on Starryon:
- Alpha Boss Location: You can find a level 57 Alpha Boss version of Starryon in the southeast region of the Scorched Ashland in Feybreak. Head to coordinates (-755, -940) to encounter this powerful variant. Just remember to bring Dragon-type Pals since Starryon is weak to Dragon attacks. While you are in this area you can also look for Nitemary Alpha Boss as it is quite close to the area.
- Night Spawns: Starryon appears in specific locations during nighttime hours. The spawn rates increase significantly after dark, so plan your hunting sessions accordingly. You’ll need to explore the areas marked on the map above during night hours to find this Pal.
- Egg Hatching: Another reliable way to obtain Starryon is by hatching Large Dark Eggs. These eggs can be found in the wild or produced through breeding at your base’s Breeding Farm. Once you get an egg, place it in an Egg Incubator and wait for it to hatch.
How to Defeat Starryon in Palworld?
Taking down Starryon requires some preparation, especially when facing the Alpha variant but honestly, it is not the hardest Pal to defeat. Since it’s a Dark-type Pal, bringing Dragon-type Pals gives you a significant advantage. A high-level Dragon Type Pal should do the job quite easily and you won’t have to go through a lot of trouble.
The best approach is to keep some distance and use ranged attacks when possible. If you’re fighting the Alpha variant, make sure to stock up on healing items since it can hit pretty hard with its level 57 stats.
Starryon learns several powerful moves as it levels up. It starts with Bog Blast at level 1 and eventually learns its exclusive skill, Lethal Step, at level 50.
When captured, Starryon drops Dark Fragments and Leather, making it a useful source of these crafting materials. Its Gathering Level 2 work suitability means it can help with harvesting crops at your base, though it’s not the most efficient Pal for this task.
