Welcome to Palworldcity, your go-to resource for everything about the immersive world of Palworld! This guide is packed with 25 expert tips and tricks to help you succeed in the game. From capturing rare Pals, optimizing your base, to uncovering hidden game mechanics—this article will cover everything you need to know to dominate Palworld. Ready? Let’s dive in!
1. Optimize Your Pals for Night Work
Most Pals sleep during the night, but Dark-type Pals work 24/7. Ensure your base is optimized, or they may become depressed and weakened. Assign Vixie to a ranch early in the game to start digging Pal Spheres—essential for leveling up and catching more Pals.
2. Upgrade to Mega Spheres for High-Level Pals
Once you progress further, standard Pal Spheres won’t suffice. Buff Vixie to level four, and she’ll start dropping Mega Spheres to help you capture stronger Pals effortlessly.
3. Maximize Storage with Viewing Cages
You can store up to 500 Pals in your P-box, but eventually, you’ll run out of space. Unlock and place viewing cages with 40 slots each to free up space. However, avoid placing these in your main base to prevent lag.
4. Custom Markers for Efficiency
Use custom markers on your map to mark key locations. For example, use stars for skill fruit trees and pickaxes for mining spots. This will help you navigate the world more efficiently.
5. Gail Claw Glider for Fast Travel
Skip the parachute or glider and unlock Gail Claw Gloves at level 23. Having Gail Claw in your party provides you with the best glider in the game, allowing faster movement and shooting while gliding.
6. Focus Stat Points on Health and Weight
With limited stat points, prioritize health and weight. This makes boss fights easier and boosts your weight capacity for farming resources efficiently.
7. Don’t Overbuild Your First Base
Avoid overbuilding early on. Focus on a minimal base and move to a better resource-rich location later to save time.
8. Leverage Passive Skills
Don’t overlook your Pal’s passive skills. Hover over their names to see detailed effects, as they can significantly impact performance.
9. Escape Angry Enemies via Fast Travel
If a high-level enemy is targeting you, fast travel to escape. Afterward, teleport back, and they may despawn or turn friendly again.
10. Level Up Quickly with Pal Species Capture
Capture 10 of each Pal species to maximize your XP gain. Beyond 10, you’ll stop receiving XP for additional captures.
11. Avoid Pal Fires
Pals can accidentally walk into campfires and spread fire, burning down wooden structures. Build a cooking pot at level 17 to prevent this.
12. Portable Sleeping Places
Create temporary sleeping spots across the map, so you don’t need to return to your base each night. You can dismantle them afterward to recover materials.
13. Use Fox Sparks for Light
At night, it can get very dark. Fox Sparks provide a valuable light source to help you see.
14. Auto Stack Items
Auto stack items into your storage with a simple button press—“R” on the keyboard or the right bumper on a controller.
15. Death Chest Loot Recovery
If you die, quickly recover your loot by opening the death chest and pressing “X” or the left thumbstick to move everything into your inventory instantly.
16. Capture a Nightwing for Flying Mount
Nightwing is the first flying mount you can capture, making travel much easier. Refill your mount’s stamina by hovering over water, ensuring you won’t drown if stamina runs out.
17. Keep Pals Healthy with Salad
Feed your Pals salad (tomato and lettuce) to increase their sanity, keeping them happier and healthier. Avoid red berries, which provide no sanity points.
18. Stat-Buffing Foods
Certain foods, like the Mosara Cheeseburger, buff stats. Use them to increase attack, defense, or even work speed for your Pals.
19. Avoid the Implode Skill
Although powerful, the Implode skill causes Pals to blow themselves up. It’s best to avoid this skill.
20. Efficient Item Transport with Grappling Hooks
Use multiple grappling hooks with different rarities to quickly get around the map, especially when over-encumbered.
21. Capture Rare Lucky Pals
Lucky Pals are rare and possess one of the best passive skills. Capture them whenever possible.
22. Revive Defeated Pals Instantly
To revive a fallen Pal instantly, move it into and out of a viewing cage.
23. Know Elemental Strengths
Fire-type Pals have advantages against multiple other types, making them extremely versatile in battle.
24. Use Multiple Lyin Pals for Health Recovery
Keep multiple Lyin Pals in your party to quickly restore health when needed. Their partner ability can heal 1,000 health points.
25. Craft Shields for Extra Protection
Shields act as extra health and automatically repair themselves when you’re not taking damage. They’re a must for staying alive in tough situations.
