Astegon is a Dark-type dragon Pal. Although not a Legendary Pal, it is still quite strong, and you should add it to your collection as soon as possible.

This menacing Pal is excellent for two reasons—it can be a flying mount, and defeating it awards Pal Metal Ingot and Pure Quartz. However, defeating Astegon is not an easy task. Here’s how to find and catch Astegon in Palworld.

Astegon location in Palworld

Astegon is on the island northwest of the mainland. I found it roaming in the southwestern part of the island. There’s a chance you encounter two of them at the same time.

Remember, when you step foot on the island, you get an “illegal activity underway” message. This means that if you get spotted, you become Wanted. There may be level 40 human enemies, but you can dodge them carefully. 

I can’t stress this enough: this island is perilous, and the Pals are at least level 40. Prepare well for this, and bring higher-quality Pal Spheres.

How to catch Astegon in Palworld

Remember that Astegon is a Dark-type dragon Pal; to counter it, you must bring along an Ice-type Pal. Don’t take this encounter lightly: take time to level up your Ice-type Pal before you even head to the island, or you will get smashed. I recommend you have at least two of those with you in case the fight goes south.

When fighting Astegon, it shoots a sizeable purple beam. You should dodge it with rolls or sprinting and keep kiting it. Take your time during the combat, and don’t try to brute force it.

Best use for Astegon in Palworld

Astegon is well suited for combat as Astegon’s strengths and types make for some exciting matchups. Astegon can also be ridden, making for a very menacing mount.


So, there you have it. You know everything you need to find and catch Astegon in Palworld. Good luck!
