The Feybreak update for Palworld introduced a brand-new island, featuring new types of Pals, equipment, and resources. The Winter 2024 update also brought exciting gameplay additions, such as expeditions, Pal research, bounty NPCs, and more. Additionally, the max level cap has been raised to 60, allowing players to unlock advanced technologies like the Laser Gatling Gun and Hexolite Armor.
Many of the newly introduced technologies require a new material called Hexolite. To craft it, you will need Ores and two newly added resources: Hexolite Quartz and Chromite. This guide focuses on Chromite in Palworld, detailing the best locations to acquire the resource and its uses.

Best Ways To Get Chromite In Palworld
While Hexolite Quartz is scattered across Feybreak Island, finding Chromite is a bit more challenging. Chromite can be located using Smokie’s Dig, Dog! Dig! partner skill or the Metal Detector. The Metal Detector becomes available at Technology level 56, while Smokie, a fox-like Pal, can be found in the northern region of Feybreak Island. To utilize their abilities, craft a Metal Detector or capture a Smokie and equip it with Smokie’s Harness to unlock its partner skill.
After acquiring Smokie’s Harness or crafting a Metal Detector, head to Feybreak Island to search for Chromite. The resource can be found inside Alpha Pal caves and dungeons located across the island.
Chromite Farming In Caves On Feybreak Island
Feybreak Island features a few caves inhabited by Alpha Pals and Bounty enemies. Once you defeat the Alpha Pal in a cave, you can use the Metal Detector or Smokie’s partner skill to uncover up to four Chromite nodes. For new visitors to Feybreak Island, the nearest caves are located at coordinates:
- -1037, -1197
- -969, -977
- -733,-1029
Chromite Farming In Dungeons
Dungeons on Feybreak Island also contain hidden Chromite nodes. However, unlike caves, the nodes in dungeons are more dispersed and not concentrated around the Alpha Pal boss. You will need to thoroughly search each dungeon to find all available Chromite. Here are the coordinates to dungeons available near the northern coast of Feybreak Island:
- -848, -957
- -1000, -1030
- -764, -1195
- -1100,-824
How To Mine Chromite In Palworld
Once you locate a Chromite node, use a pickaxe or a mining Pal to extract it. Pals like Digtoise and Rushoar are particularly suited for mining ore nodes. Each node yields approximately 25 pieces of Chromite.
Other Ways to Obtain Chromite
Mining Chromite can become tedious, especially when relying on tools or Pal skills. Luckily, there are alternative methods:
Defeating Silvegis
Silvegis, a four-foot dragon-like Alpha Pal, drops 2–3 Chromite upon defeat. Silvegis spawns in a cave at coordinates -987, -1029, near the Shield Dragon Tunnel fast travel point. Alternatively, you can hatch Silvegis from Huge Dragon Eggs found on Feybreak Island. Breeding Silvegis allows you to farm eggs and harvest Chromite by butchering the newborn pals. Although this method may not be the most humane, it remains a dependable way to farm Chromite.
Pal Expeditions
Expeditions introduced in the Feybreak update provide Chromite as a reward. Send your Pals to these locations:
- Dark Cave of Feybreak
- Brothers of the Eternal Pyre’s Black Market
Expeditions to Feybreak take about an hour and yield 30-50 Chromite, along with other valuable items like Ultimate Spheres, Exotic Spheres, and Giant Pal Souls. If you haven’t reached Feybreak Island, expeditions to Brothers of the Eternal Pyre’s Black Market provide 15-30 Chromite.
