In Palworld, Nightstar Sand is a mid-game crafting ingredient required for various tech tree recipes starting at level 56. It can be primarily found in the Dessicated Dunes, particularly at night, where players can glide from the Searing Dunes Watchtower to locate glowing sand nodes. Feybreak Island beaches have a higher abundance of Nightstar Sand but are more challenging for lower-level players. The Dessicated Dunes also contain sparse deposits around the Tower of the PIDF. Nightstar Sand is used in crafting items such as the Advanced Bow, Beam Sword, Metal Detector, and Double Air Dash Boots, with specific quantities required for each recipe.
