How to Catch Quivern in Palworld (Location, Skills & Drops)
Quivern increases the Attack of every Dragon Pal in your party by 15 to 30% — a flat multiplier that outperforms the per-Pal scaling skills most Dragon builds rely on. Since Palworld 1.0 is unusually Dragon-heavy at the top end, and Dragon is the counter to the Level 50 tower boss, that is a party slot worth reserving. It is also a flying mount, covers four base jobs, and drops Dragon Radiant Gems at 10 – 20 at Level 80.

Where to Find Quivern
- Palpagos Islands — multiple sites at Level 40 – 70.
- The World Tree — Level 80.
- Pal Recruiter — available for recruitment.
- Black Marketeer — available for purchase.
That last route is worth noting. The Black Marketeer sells Quivern outright, which means you can buy a Dragon party buff rather than fighting for one — a rare shortcut in Palworld, and a good use for gold if you have been selling Coralum Ore at 2,000 apiece.
The Level 80 population is a farm target:
| Drop | Quantity | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Dragon Radiant Gem | 10 – 20 | 100% |
| Decayed Ancient Relic | 30 – 50 | 100% |
| Dormant Ancient Relic | 10 – 20 | 100% |
| Gorgeous Ancient Relic | 4 – 8 | 100% |
| High Quality Pal Oil | 3 | 100% |
Quivern joins Orserk, Jormuntide and Astegon as a Level 80 Dragon gem source. Dragon is now the best-covered gem element after Grass.
The Best Dragon Party Buff
Quivern's partner skill increases the Attack of Dragon Pals in your party by 15~30%.
Compare that to the alternatives in Palworld 1.0's roster:
| Pal | Dragon buff |
|---|---|
| Quivern | +15~30% Attack to all Dragon Pals — flat |
| Shaolong | +4% Attack per other Dragon Pal |
| Eidrolon | +2% Attack and Movement Speed per Dragon or Dark Pal |
Shaolong's skill needs a full party to compete. With five other Dragons it reaches +20% — good, but it costs you every other slot. Quivern gives you 15 – 30% immediately, with no composition requirement beyond the Dragons already benefiting.
The two also stack. A party running Quivern + Shaolong gets Quivern's flat buff and Shaolong's per-Dragon scaling, on top of Shaolong's own 910 – 1,153 Attack — the joint-highest in the update.
Where a Dragon party matters most:
- Victor & Shadowbeak, the Level 50 tower boss and the game's difficulty spike, is Dark — weak to Dragon.
- Bellanoir, with the highest documented Attack ceiling at 1,000 – 1,270, is also Dark.
- Kingpaca at Level 80, the Neutral gem farm, is weak to Dark rather than Dragon — so check before assuming.
Its offensive kit is serviceable:
- Dragon Meteor (600) and Diamond Rain (600)
- Dragon Breath (160)
- Dragon Cannon (40)
Skills & Stats
At Level 80:
- HP: 5,100 – 6,360
- Attack: 700 – 880
- Defense: 650 – 830
Middling — Quivern buffs your damage rather than dealing it. That is fine; the skill is the point.
At base it is unusually broad for a Dragon, covering four jobs: Transporting Lv5, Mining Lv4, Gathering Lv3 and Handiwork Lv2. Nothing is best-in-class, but a Pal that hauls, mines, gathers and crafts is a genuinely useful generalist — most Dragons in the roster do one job or none.
How to Catch Quivern
- Bring Ice attackers. Dragon is weak to Ice. Moldron Cryst (850 – 1,075 Attack), Univolt Cryst or Beakon Cryst all work.
- Do not bring Dark Pals. Dragon beats Dark.
- Or simply buy one. The Black Marketeer stocks Quivern — no fight required.
- Ultra or Legendary Spheres at Level 40 – 70; Sol or Ancient at Level 80.
- CombiRank 1,210 from a Large Dragon Egg makes breeding a reasonable third option.
Practical tips
- +15~30% Attack to all Dragon Pals, flat. Better than Shaolong's per-Dragon scaling unless your whole party is Dragons.
- They stack. Run Quivern and Shaolong for both effects.
- Buy one from the Black Marketeer if you would rather spend gold than time.
- Take a Dragon party to Victor & Shadowbeak (Level 50) and Bellanoir — both Dark, both weak to Dragon.
- Farm the Level 80 population for Dragon Radiant Gem at 10 – 20 (100%).
Running your own Palworld 1.0 server
Building a themed party means catching several specific Pals and testing the combination against real fights — which goes faster on a world that is always available. A dedicated Palworld 1.0 server keeps spawns, merchants and boss encounters live around the clock, lets a group split the hunting list through full crossplay, and protects a carefully assembled party with one-click backups and automatic updates.
Conclusion
Quivern is a Dragon Pal found at Level 40 – 70 across the Palpagos Islands, at Level 80 in the World Tree, and available from both the Pal Recruiter and the Black Marketeer — so you can buy one outright. Its partner skill grants a flat +15~30% Attack to every Dragon Pal in your party, which beats Shaolong's per-Dragon scaling in most compositions and stacks with it in a full Dragon squad. It also covers four base jobs and drops Dragon Radiant Gem at 10 – 20 (100%) at Level 80. Bring Ice attackers, or just visit the Black Marketeer.
