◆ Rarity · Common — "Glacial Harbinger"

Hangyu Cryst is the Ice subspecies of Hangyu at No. 038B — the same floating balloon body, recoloured in frost, carrying an Ice Organ. It trades the base form's plain utility for a stronger work profile and a genuine late-game Ice attack.

Partner skill
Winter Trapeze"While in team, modifies the performance of the equipped glider. Enables slow ascent while gliding." The same glider upgrade as base Hangyu, in an Ice-flavoured wrapper.

Hangyu Cryst is a night-only Pal of the far north: the Astral Mountains. Cross-checked maps place a few around the Sea Breeze Archipelago at night, but the Astral Mountains are the reliable habitat.

There is no fixed overworld Alpha — most players get it by breeding. It hatches from a Frozen Egg line.

Stats & how they vary

HP 80
Attack 80
Defense 70
Work speed 100

Melee 70, Shot 80, Stamina 100. Rarity value 2, Size XS. The four displayed stats use Attack = Shot 80 — 10 higher than base Hangyu, making Cryst the more ranged-leaning of the pair. Type matchup. Ice is strong against Dragon and weak to Fire — bring a Fire Pal to catch it. Work speed 100 is the series default.

The story of Hangyu Cryst

"A balloon that drifted too far north and never thawed — its arms still crush iron, but now they leave frost where they grip."

Cryst is what Hangyu becomes in the cold: the same grim strength, glazed over in ice. The Ice Organ it carries lets it chill its surroundings, and where the base form is a curiosity, this one earns a spot at any northern base — a worker, a glider buff and, by Lv 70, an actual Ice threat.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 20. Only ever see them at night up in the Astral Mountains. Cold, quiet, drifting.

Day 21. Bred Hangyu with a Swee and skipped the night-hunt entirely. Cryst on the first try.

Day 24. Handiwork Lv 3 and Cooling — it's doing more at base than half my roster.

Day 30. Hit Lv 70 and it learned Diamond Rain. The little balloon suddenly hits like a truck.

Hangyu Cryst, answered

Where do I find Hangyu Cryst in Palworld?

In the far north — the Astral Mountains — at night only. There is no fixed overworld Alpha, so most players breed it.

What does Winter Trapeze do?

While Hangyu Cryst is in your team, it modifies your equipped glider to enable a slow ascent while gliding — the same glider upgrade as base Hangyu's Flying Trapeze.

Is Hangyu Cryst good?

Better than the base form: Handiwork Lv 3, Transporting Lv 3 and Cooling Lv 2 make it a solid base worker, and it gains a real Ice attack kit up to Diamond Rain at Lv 70.

What is Hangyu Cryst weak to?

Fire, because of its Ice typing.

What does Hangyu Cryst drop?

Fiber ×5–10 and an Ice Organ ×1, every time (100%).

How do I breed Hangyu Cryst?

Hangyu + Swee gives Hangyu Cryst, and it also breeds true (Cryst + Cryst).
