Astegon is a Dark and Dragon-type Alpha Pal that you can use as a flying mount in Palworld. Its Partner Skill makes it an excellent Pal for farming ores for ingots that can help you craft items like nails.
Other than that, it can also serve as a great flying mount and serves very well in combat too. With such great capabilities, this Pal is a must-have in your Paldeck.
Where to find Astegon in Palworld
There are two locations where you can find this Pal. The first is the Destroyed Mineshaft at the Volcano region, and the second is the No.3 Wildlife Sanctuary at the top right corner of the map.
If you need a guarantee to find an Astegon in Palworld, you must head over to the Volcano region, and into the cave entrance at the coordinates: -575, -416. After locating the entrance, move forward in the cave, and you will find this Pal as a level 38 Field Alpha boss.
On the other hand, there is no fixed spot where you can find this Pal in the Wildlife Sanctuary. If you are lucky enough to spot an Astegon here, it won’t be an Alpha Pal – just a normal one.
Moreover, as the second area is not connected to the mainland, you should use a flying Pal to get there. Once you spot the Pal, the next thing you need to know is how to capture it.
To capture Astegon in Palworld, make sure you have an element-type advantage. Astegon is a Dark and Dragon-type Pal, so to defeat it, Ice and Dragon-type Pals will help you a lot.
How to catch Alpha Astegon
To capture Astegon in Palworld, make sure you have an element-type advantage. Astegon is a Dark and Dragon-type Pal, so to defeat it, Ice and Dragon-type Pals will help you a lot.
You can choose Pals like Frostallion and Jormuntide to lower Astegon’s health. I will recommend focusing more on using weapons to capture this Pal. The rocket launcher is the best weapon to lower this Alpha Pal Boss’s health significantly.
Just a couple of blows will do the job for you. If you don’t have the launcher, you can go for a high-caliber assault rifle since you can obtain its Legendary Schematic earlier.
While attacking, you need to dodge Astegon’s attacks by running away or using the surroundings, as they can lower your health significantly.
Once you have weakened the Pal enough, use a Legendary Sphere to capture this Alpha Pal. Low-quality Pal Spheres will not help you, so there is no point in wasting your time. We recommend using Legendary Pal Spheres to have the highest chance of capturing the Pal.
If you don’t have many required Pal Spheres with you, we recommend hitting the boss with a Stun Baton to increase your chances of capturing it.
Other than the aforementioned methods, you can also get an Astegon in Palworld by hatching a Dragon Egg found randomly throughout the world and by breeding the Pal.
How to breed Astegon in Palworld
If you don’t want to go through a devastating fight to get your hands on an Astegon, an easier way to obtain it would be to breed the Pal. Breeding Pals in Palworld is simple – you select two Pals to breed and then hatch the egg they produce.
For Example, If you have a Lyleen Noct, you can breed it with opposite-sex Pals like Pladius, Frostallion, and Jetragon to get the egg that can give you an Astegon.
Other than this, there are a few other combinations of Pals you can try breeding to get yourself an Astegon:
- Elizabee with Blazamut
- Cryolinx with Helzephir
- Cryolinx with Grizzbolt
- Reptyro with Blazamut
- Suzaku with Pyrin Noct
- Shadowbeak with Pyrin Noct
- Blazamut with Mammorest

Astegon Weaknesses and Stats
Astegon is a great Pal to have in your Paldeck because of its unique elemental composition. This Pal is a Dark and a Dragon-type Pals. Dark Pals are weak to Dragon-type Pals while Dragon-type Pals are weak to Ice-type Pals.
Both the Dark and the Dragon elements work very well with each other since they are some of the strongest elemental types in the game.
That’s not it though. Astegon is also one of the best Pals to use at your base because of its level 4 Mining Work Suitability – going head to head with another great mining Pal – Digtoise.
This Pal also serves as a flying mount, which makes it a bit better than Digtoise because it can also be used in your party to travel large distances. The rest of Astegon’s stats at level 50 are as follows:

- Defense: 518
- Partner Skill: Black Ankylosaur – Improves Astegon’s mining efficiency when the player is mounting it.
