How to get Chromite in Palworld
Recruit a pal helper, craft a new tool, or go for a much darker alternative.
Chromite is readily available in Palworld, but you'll need a special tool or pal to mine it. To help you locate Chromite, I'll explain the two primary methods to acquire it: using a metal detector or farming through passive breeding of Smokies.
To begin with, you'll need to venture to Feybreak Island, located south of Mount Obsidian. Once there, you can utilize a Metal Detector or capture a Smokie to assist in finding Chromite deposits. While Smokie's partner skill offers the easiest farming solution, crafting a Metal Detector provides a faster, albeit more expensive, alternative that won't consume a pal slot.
Using Smokie's partner skill involves catching a roaming Smokie on Feybreak Island, crafting its Harness (available at level 58), and employing Pal Essence Condenser to boost its skill. Regardless of the method chosen, once Chromite is detected, a rocky node marked by a blue beacon will emerge from the ground. Harvest this node with a pickaxe, similar to other ores.
For those seeking a more passive approach, breeding Smokies offers an alternative way to farm Chromite. To accomplish this, catch a male and female Smokie and place them on the Breeding Farm with regular Cake or Vegetable Cakes to expedite egg production. Hatch the resulting eggs and continuously use the Pal Disassembly Conveyor to butcher the Smokies, collecting the Chromite they leave behind.
Though this process may seem grim, it proves to be an easy, passive method for accumulating Chromite without searching for individual nodes.
