How to Obtain Ancient Civilization Parts in Palworld

In Palworld, Ancient Civilization Parts are a crucial crafting material, but you must locate them first before being able to utilize them effectively.

In addition to capturing Pals and upgrading your base, collecting resources is crucial for survival in the game. One of the most valuable materials is Ancient Civilization Parts, also referred to as Paldium Crystals. These are essential for crafting important late-game items such as the Egg Incubator and Giga Shield.

Fortunately, there are numerous methods for acquiring this resource in Palworld, and we have compiled a guide on where to obtain them and the most efficient way to gather them.

Where to locate Ancient Civilization Parts

Ancient Civilization Parts can be acquired in Palworld by either defeating Dungeon Bosses or looting Alpha Pals after knocking them out.

For a faster way to obtain these parts, we suggest battling Alpha Pals instead of exploring dungeons. However, if you have the time and are up for a challenge, you can always choose to face the dungeon bosses as well.

Alpha Pals

Alpha Pals are easily recognizable due to their large size, which is significantly bigger than their regular counterparts. They can also be identified by the red name and health bar that appears above them while in the open world.

• You can spot the initial location of an Alpha Pal via circle icons on your minimap, and once you’ve found them their general location will always remain marked for you to keep track of.
• After hovering over the minimap icon, you will have the option to view the Alpha Pals level, allowing you to determine if you are prepared to engage in the battle beforehand.

Alpha Pals can be located on the map.

While there are numerous Alphas to discover, we suggest prioritizing the defeat of the Level 11 Alpha Pal Chillet.

The Fort Ruins is where you can find this pal, situated near the Grassy Behemoth Hills fast travel point. It is not too difficult to defeat or capture, but we recommend having a Fire-type Pal such as Foxparks, Rooby, or Pyrin with you.

Dungeon Bosses

In Palworld, the powerful Pals known as Dungeon Bosses can be encountered at the end of dungeons. However, these dungeons are only active for a maximum of 300 minutes before they shut down. They will not reappear until other dungeons on the map have also been cleared.

After the opening of a dungeon, you will have a limited time of 5 hours to explore and defeat the boss. Therefore, it is advisable to make sure that you are at the appropriate level to face the challenge (the dungeon’s designated level and exclusive rewards will be displayed before entering).

Dungeon bosses will drop Ancient Civilization Parts.

Adding to the complexity, every dungeon has a unique layout – some consisting of a single boss room, while others present a more intricate maze.
