How to Get Astralym Palworld
Now let’s go and face the fate. Follow these steps and you will unlock the Astralym and Zenara in the shortest time possible.
Step 1: Disable the Floating Island Defense Systems
To reach the eighth Tower Boss, travel to the new floating islands (Sunreach) located at the bottom of the world map.
When you arrive, the tower entrance will be blocked by a massive whirlwind. Fly directly into the tornado to meet an NPC who explains how to disable the island’s defenses. Search the floating islands for buildings that emit blue beams of light. Interact with the terminals inside these locations to shut down each defense system.
Hear this. If a terminal is inside a tall building, skip the climb. Fly to the roof and break through the top with your weapons or Pals. Then, drop inside to reach the terminal much faster.
Step 2: Defeat Auri and Shaolong
First, you must challenge the new version 1.0 boss, Auri and Shaolong. They are a difficult duo, so come prepared. Defeating Auri and Shaolong rewards you with the eighth Sphere. You also will be rewarded five tech points.
Once the fight ends, speak with Auri. This wraps things up on Sunreach and unlocks the Panthalus quest.
Step 3: Craft the Echoing Flute and Capture Panthalus
Visit the four locations marked by the researcher and collect all of the required quest materials.
Once you have everything, return to your base and craft the Echoing Flute at a Primitive Workbench. Bring the flute back to the researcher and activate the nearby shrine. This starts a boss battle against the Panthalus, a Level 70 Water-type Pal with a large health pool, so bring Electric-type Pals like Beakon to make the fight quick and safe.
You must face Panthalus to continue the quest. If you forgot to bring Pal Spheres, you can usually find some scattered along the nearby beach. Oh, I almost forget. You have to capture Panthalus . Otherwise, the whole boss fight will be repeated.
After capturing Panthalus, speak with the researcher again to unlock the World Tree mission. You can now cross the barrier. Panthalus needs to be in your active party.
Step 4: Defeat the Three Guardians Inside the World Tree
Getting past the barrier only gets you through the front door. Once inside, you will find three guardian bosses marked on the map. None of them require a puzzle to reach, just track the markers and take them on one at a time.
Come prepared, because one of these encounters throws a swarm of shadow-form Pals at you all at once, which is easily the most chaotic fight of the three. Clear all three guardians and you will receive the items needed to open the first inner door. You can press deeper into the World Tree.
While you are in here, keep a Gas Mask handy. Part of the World Tree is a radiation biome that will chip away at your health if you wander off the main path unprotected.
Step 5: Collect the Eight Key Spheres from the Tower Bosses
Beyond the first door is a second, larger gate that is the entrance to the final boss area. Opening it requires eight Key Spheres.
To collect these Spheres, defeat all eight Tower Bosses in Palworld. You may have some of them. You can play on Normal difficulty, as the difficulty setting does not affect spheres rewards.
You can see the location of 7 tower bosses in below images:
The first seven Key Sphere come from the original seven Tower Bosses in the base game, while the eighth is dropped by the new Tower Boss introduced in version 1.0.
Return to the World Tree. Pass through the first door and interact with the second gate. With all eight Key Spheres in your possession, the door will open. You are now in the lovely arms of Astralym and Zenara!
Astralym and Zenara Boss Fight Tips
Astralym is a Level 80, roughly 420,000 HP boss with no elemental type. So, get yourself to Level 80 before going in.
Near the end of the battle, Astralym enters an immune phase and uses a wing-charge attack capable of instantly defeating an unprepared team.
Stay on the move. Then dodge continuously and destroy the wings and leg orbs as soon as the center charging sequence begins. For the best results, equip top-tier Paloxite energy weapons such as the Drone Launcher or Plasma Rifle. Defeating Zenara and Astralym concludes Palworld’s main story and also unlocks a Hard Mode version of the encounter for future replay.
Actually, the ending of Palworld is really sweet (I will not spoil anything, do not worry). When I beat Astralym and Zenara, I was surprised by the ending cutscene. I leave it to you to feel the energy of denouement.
Can We Catch Astralym? This Is the Question!
I have bad news, guys. The short answer is no. Please don’t be sad.
Astralym is currently unavailable in Palworld’s 1.0 Update. It cannot be encountered in the wild or obtained through an Alpha Boss fight. Most strangely, you cannot have it when you defeat it on either boss difficulty. Please, Pocketpair, make Astralym at least a worthy reward for our efforts in unlocking this boss fight!
