Known as the Planet-Devouring Dragon in Palworld, Xenogard's intimidating appearance will leave the toughest players shaking in their boots. The massive Dragon-type pal is large in stature and sports a metallic silver and charcoal body, complete with purple trim and what appears to be a helmet covering its face.

Xenogard is a special pal that differs from many of the other newly-introduced members of the Paldeck, and finding it in the wild won't be easy. Thankfully, there is a way to discover it in Palworld, though it will take some time, plenty of patience, and a little help from lady luck.

Where to Find and Catch Xenogard in Palworld

For players hoping to venture out into the world and discover Xenogard quickly, disappointment will be found instead. Although Xenogard is massive, thus making it hard to miss, it won't spawn naturally in the wild unless certain conditions are met.

To find Xenogard, players must first encounter the meteor event. Meteors occasionally drop from the sky, prompting a message that will display across the screen in red letters. This alert will also show where the meteor is projected to land via the compass tracker, allowing players to follow along and predict its landing.

Once the meteor has dropped, a Syndicate Gunner will appear on the scene with their trusted Xenogard to collect the meteorite fragments. Players can either ignore the situation and leave the Xenogard alone or challenge and capture it while taking down the gunner and collecting the meteorite fragments for later use.

Xenogard is no easy pal to take down, and the additional difficulty of facing a Syndicate Gunner adds another layer to the battle. Take the gunner out first to limit the damage taken, and then chip away at Xenogard's HP. Xenogard will have tremendous defense and HP, so lead in with caution and bring plenty of firepower and some of the best available pal spheres.

Xenogard Skills & Work Suitability, Explained

Apart from being a Dragon pal, which are often deemed some of the most powerful monsters in Palworld, Xenogard is excellent for resource gathering. Sporting a Level 3 Mining work suitability, Xenogard can be left on the base to smash any ore or stone cluster in no time at all.

This reflects well on the method used to find and capture Xenogard, as it is deployed after a meteor falls and is used to smash and collect as many meteorite fragments as possible. Having one on the team or back home at the base will ensure players continue to collect valuable resources quickly.

Additionally, having Xenogard on the team will benefit the player thanks to its partner skill, Crater Enthusiast. This skill grants players a significant boost with the collection of meteorite fragments and pure quartz when chipping away at fallen meteors. The two valuable resources will go a long way toward building future technological equipment and weapons, so be sure to start stockpiling as many meteorite fragments and pure quartz as possible.
