In brief

Citrine is a rare but essential resource in Palia, obtained exclusively through mining. Found in several regions (Kilima Valley, Bahari Bay, Elderwood), it depends entirely on luck — the real strategy is to break as many ore deposits as possible and help each other out as a community.

The vast regions of Palia are not short of materials to gather, all more or less essential to progress through quests and craft key items. With so many resources, some remain difficult to find - this is the case with Citrine. Fairly rare but required by many tasks (quests, bulletin board requests, crafting projects), it's worth knowing where to look. Here's how to get your hands on it.

How to find Citrine

Citrine is obtained exclusively by mining. By breaking the right types of ore veins in certain regions, you have a chance of getting some from any mined vein. It all comes down to luck: how easily you'll find some depends entirely on your fortune.

Note

In practice, you could break several veins in a row that drop Citrine... or get just one, or even none at all, despite breaking dozens of rocks. There's no way to predict it: the only reliable method is to mine often and break as many veins as possible to maximize your chances.

Where to find Citrine

This rare starstone can be obtained pretty much anywhere by mining. Here are all the known sources:

  • clay and stone veins in Kilima Valley;
  • clay and stone veins in Bahari Bay;
  • white stone veins in Elderwood;
  • stone veins on your plot;
  • sometimes by opening a Starstone Mystery Bag;
  • guaranteed as a reward from the Majordomo's Relief Fund.

Tips to get some more easily

Since Citrine is a rare drop, even knowing where to look, obtaining it can be an ordeal. A few methods can make things easier:

  • Ask other players. As long as you've already found at least one Citrine yourself, you can use the Requests system to ask other players to give you some. The resource is highly sought after, but Palia's community is known for helping each other out: persevere!
  • Break every vein. The more you mine, the higher your chances: don't leave a single vein standing in the relevant regions.
  • Mine with others. Join other players on the server or your friends: in a game so focused on community, mining becomes much faster when done together.

What's next?

Once you've got your Citrine, plenty of other objectives await you in Palia: finding Muujimothy, completing the Civic Project: Docks, or even fishing up a Kilima Shade. Plenty to keep you busy in Kilima!

Frequently asked questions

Is there a guaranteed method to find Citrine?
No, except by opening the Butler's Relief Fund, which guarantees some. Otherwise, it's pure chance: only the Stoneshard Mystery Bag can contain some, but without any guarantee. The real recipe is to break dozens of deposits to increase your odds.
Which regions should I search for Citrine in?
Four main areas: the clay and stone deposits in Kilima Valley, those in Bahari Bay, the white stone deposits in Elderwood, and the stone deposits on your own plot.
Can I ask other players for Citrine if I've never found any myself?
No, you must have found at least one Citrine yourself to access the Request system. It's a barrier, but once you have one, the community proves to be generous.
Does mining with others increase my chances of finding Citrine?
Not directly: your odds remain the same per deposit. But mining in a group speeds up the process massively — you cover more ground, break more rocks, and therefore find Citrine faster statistically.

Key takeaways

  • Citrine can only be obtained by mining: there's no other source, it's pure chance with every deposit.
  • Break every possible deposit in the four main regions to multiply your odds.
  • Use the Request system to ask other players for help once you've found some.
  • Mine in a group: it's faster, more fun, and the Palia community loves helping each other out.
