1 pal drops Emerald in Palworld 1.0. The early farm is Tetroise Primo at ×1-2 per kill, wild from level 60. One source, one rate, and it is the rate the game rolls.
What drops Emerald in Palworld
Exactly one pal drops Emerald in Palworld 1.0: Tetroise Primo, ×1-2 per kill. There is no second source anywhere on the drop table, so that fight is the item.
Emerald is a pure cash drop. Precious Entrails does the same job off the same dropper, so check which of the two a recipe asked for before you spend one. Tetroise Primo is Neutral-type with 100 attack, wild between level 60-78, and 2 parent pairs breed one if hatching it beats hunting it. Only Tetroise Primo's ordinary row carries it, so neither its alpha nor a predator version of it pays it.
Every source of Emerald, with drop rates
The one dropper, with the per-kill amount, the roll chance where the drop is not guaranteed, and the wild level band each pal spawns in.
| Pal | Per kill | Found |
|---|---|---|
 Tetroise Primo |
×1-2 | wild Lv 60-78 |
Amounts are per kill or capture. See Tetroise Primo's spawn points on the live map, or open any pal's page for its spawn zones and level bands.
Where to farm Emerald early
Tetroise Primo is the earliest source that pays reliably: ×1-2 per kill, wild from level 60, which puts it only once you are into the endgame. None of the droppers is nocturnal, so the whole list is available in daylight. Tetroise Primo's band runs all the way to level 78, so you never outlevel the farm and never have to switch off it.
Tetroise Primo drops 3 other things on the same kill: Ancient Civilization Parts at ×6-7, Precious Entrails at ×2-3, Large Pal Soul at ×1. Worth knowing before you decide the trip is only about Emerald. Killing pals is not the only route: Emerald is in the field chest loot pool at about 100% per chest, and the syndicate camp loot pool at about 100% per chest.
Nothing crafts from it. The game's own line puts it straight on a merchant's counter, so the only question is how many you can carry per trip and whether the fight is worth the coin.
How much Emerald you get per kill
Emerald comes in ×1 to ×2 per kill: Tetroise Primo pays the top ×1-2 and Tetroise Primo the bottom ×1-2. Capturing counts the same as killing for drops, so a sphere and a finishing hit pay identically.
