Citrine is a rare crafting material in the online life-sim game Palia, required for various quests, Bulletin Board requests and crafting projects, and players have been struggling to track down reliable sources of it. According to a guide from Destructoid, the material can only be obtained through mining, making it awkward to farm deliberately since its appearance depends entirely on chance rather than any guaranteed method.

Citrine drops randomly from suitable rock nodes found across many regions of Palia, with no fixed location offering better odds than another. Because the drop rate is governed purely by luck, players might find several pieces in quick succession or none at all despite mining extensively; the only recommended approach is to mine frequently and clear as many nodes as possible to maximise the chances of a drop.
