As a survival game,Palworldrequires that you gather myriad resources to progress along the technology tree, set up a self-sufficient base, and take care of (or exploit) your collection of Pals.Paldiumis an essential part of this setup - it’s a blue rock that seems to hold large amounts of power.
You’ll need Paldium not only to craft the balls you use to contain Pals, but to set up a home base with a Palbox to begin with. For this reason, you’ll need to become adept at spotting Paldium wherever it appears very quickly.

How To Get Paldium
Paldium appears naturally in the wild- it’s a mineral resource that has its own resource nodes all over the land and can also appear with others. The main way you’ll encounter Paldium is as small hunks of blue rock - you may mine these either by damaging them with weapons or, more efficiently, bysmacking them with a Pickaxe.
Each Paldium node will providefive Paldium Fragmentsin total.
There will also bePaldium Fragments to find on the ground. These will only provide one or two fragments apiece, but it’s a good idea to snatch them up whenever you find them - you’ll always be needing Paldium!
You can also find Paldium within the largeStone nodesthat are littered around the world. These can also provide you with Ore, but you shouldn’t rely on these for your Paldium Needs.

How To Farm Paldium
Since Paldium is so important and comes in small amounts, it’s a good idea to learn where you can expect to find it. Thankfully,Paldium can be found pretty much all over the world. It tends to appear ingreater amounts near water, so look out for coastlines and rivers.
Once you’ve found a good area with lots of Paldium, you might want toset up a base there. That way, you candeploy Miner Palswho will constantly mine that Paldium, even as it respawns. This way, you’ll have an endless supply of Paldium coming into your base.
