In Palworld, players explore a vast and mysterious world inhabited by creatures known as pals—unique beings that help you survive, fight, and travel. One of the most intriguing pals added in the recent update is Starryon—a dark pal with high combat potential and excellent utility as a nighttime transport.

However, finding and catching this creature can be challenging, as it only appears at night and moves unpredictably. In this guide, we'll cover everything you need to know about where to find Starryon, how to capture it, and why it's worth your attention.

What is Starryon?

Starryon is a dark-type pal characterized by its illuminated purple mane and incredible speed, especially at night. This pal is popular among players due to its high attack and defense stats, making it a reliable ally in battles.

Additionally, Starryon has a passive ability that increases its speed at night, making it the perfect vehicle for exploring the world in darkness.

Although it's not the best choice for performing basic tasks due to a low level of efficiency, Starryon is excellent for battles and navigation. It also possesses unique attacks that cause the Blindness effect—this debuff reduces enemies' visibility in combat, giving you an advantage in tough fights.

Where to find Starryon?

Starryon inhabits the island of Feybreak, which was added in the new update. As it is a night pal, it only appears after nightfall. Thus, you need to adjust your search strategy.

One of the most reliable places to find Starryon is Scorched Hill, located in the southeastern part of the island of Feybreak. You might also try looking for it at Frozen Coral Hill, but keep in mind that this location is significantly more challenging due to the harsh climate and high-level pals residing there. Therefore, Scorched Hill is a more accessible option for most players.

Alternatively, you can head to the lake in the Frozen Forest at coordinates (-1241, -1528). In this area, you often find several Starryon swimming in the water. However, it may take more time and patience to get them out of the water.

If you don't want to waste time waiting for nightfall, use the day-night cycle adjustment feature in the world settings in the main menu. This will significantly speed up the process of hunting for Starryon.

For players seeking a more serious challenge, there's another option: the alpha version of Starryon (level 57) found in the Scorched Ashland area at coordinates (-755, -940). Confronting this powerful adversary requires careful preparation, but defeating it will reward you with a valuable ally.

How to capture Starryon in Palworld

Due to Starryon's speed and unpredictable movements, getting close to this pal can be difficult. Here's some advice on how to increase your chances of successfully capturing this Pal:

How to recognize Starryon:

During nighttime hunting, look for a pal with a bright blue mane. This is the main feature that easily identifies Starryon even in the darkness. However, be aware that its quick movements may complicate tracking.

Battle Strategy:

Starryon's attacks can induce Blindness, making it difficult to see the environment. To avoid this, it's recommended to keep your distance and use ranged weapons: Meowmere or Assault Rifle.

These weapons deal moderate damage, allowing you to gradually lower Starryon's health without risking accidentally taking it out. Make sure your weapon has an attack stat of about 1,000 to avoid dealing too much damage in one hit.

Using the right pals in battle:

As a dark-type pal, Starryon is weak to Dragon attacks. We recommend bringing dragon pals such as:

• Jetdragon
  
  
• Orserk
  
  
• Ephidran

These pals will help you more effectively weaken Starryon and make its capture process significantly easier.

Starryon capture process:

To capture Starryon, you can use Ultimate Spheres, but Exotic Spheres provide better success rates. Using the right spheres will help avoid wasting valuable resources on failed capture attempts. After you've lowered Starryon's health, throw an Exotic Sphere to complete the capture.

Starryon's Moves and Abilities

Starryon's unique set of attacks makes it a valuable addition to your team. Its attacks induce Blindness, which can be used to disorient enemies in battles. This is especially useful during fights with neutral bosses and Pals, giving you a tactical advantage.

As Starryon levels up, it learns powerful moves, including:

• Bog Blast (level 1)
  
  
• Dark Pulse (level 25)
  
  
• Lethal Step (level 50)

Starryon's Stats and Utility

At level 60, Starryon boasts impressive combat stats:

• HP: up to 5,090
  
  
• Attack: High
  
  
• Defense: Medium

These stats make Starryon a formidable attacker and a reliable choice against strong bosses. While it's not the best option for basic tasks, it has a resource gathering level of 2, which can be useful for harvesting crops at your base.

One of Starryon's best features is the ability to craft a saddle and ride on it. Thanks to the passive ability, Starryon moves faster at night, making it an excellent choice for nighttime adventures.

Is Starryon worth the attention?

Undoubtedly, yes. Starryon is one of the most versatile Pals added in the new update. Its high attack stats, usefulness as transport, and unique set of attacks make it a valuable addition to any team.

While its base utility may be limited, its combat abilities and nighttime travel advantages more than make up for this drawback. Create a saddle, hop on Starryon's back, and enjoy exploring the world of Palworld under the cover of night.
