Min-Max Pals for the PvP Meta

Palworld - PvP Meta

While the game currently doesn't have PvP, it is planned for a future update. We expect the meta to focus on maximizing stats, so it's recommended to prepare for the PvP meta by building the best Pals and teams before it drops.

Palworld Roadmap and Future Updates

How to Get Strong Endgame Pals

  1. Chain Breed Pals to Get Best Passive Skills
  2. Rank Up Pals with Pal Essence Condenser
  3. Enhance Pal Stats with Statue of Power
  4. Choose Best Active Skills
  5. Consider Using Legendary Pals

Chain Breed Pals to Get Best Passive Skills

Offspring Pals are able to inherit Passive Skills from parent Pals via chain breeding. You may need to breed several times before getting the Passive Skills that you want, as skill inheritance per Egg is not 100% guaranteed.

While it may take some time, this makes it possible for Pals to get useful Passive Skills like Legend and other damage-boosting skills, which they are unable to get naturally when caught in the wild.

Chain breeding Pals will also allow you to get rid of Passive Skills that impact your Pal negatively, like those that reduce attack and defense stats.

How to Chain Breed Passive Skills

Best Passive Skills for Combat

Passive Skill Effect
Palworld - Positive Tier One Legend Attack +20%, Defense +20%, and Movement Speed +15%
Palworld - Positive Tier One Musclehead Attack +30%
Work Speed -50%
Palworld - Positive Tier One Ferocious Attack +20%
Palworld - Positive Tier One Burly Body Defense +20%
Palworld - Positive Tier One Lucky Work Speed +15% and Attack +15%
Palworld - Element Attack Damage Passives that Boost Element Attack Damage +20% increase to Element attack damage

The Passive Skills listed above are the best ones for combat Pals, as most of these give Pals attack and defense bonuses.

Do note that you can get the Lucky Passive Skill from Lucky Pals in the wild, which can be passed down, like other Passive Skills, by breeding.

Rank Up Pals with Pal Essence Condenser # hm_6

The Pal Essence Condenser lets you sacrifice duplicate Pals to improve one Pal. You can use Pals you've caught that have hindering or unwanted Passive Skills to improve a Pal that has good passives.

Doing so will rank up their Partner Skill, which enhances the skill's effect, and also grant the Pal a small stat bonus.

Pal Essence Condenser: How to Rank Up Pals

Take Advantage of Partner Skills

Raising your Pal's Partner Skill can give you great benefits as you rank it up.

Several Partner Skills can improve the damage output of your main Pal just by being in your party, while some will give you bonus damage to you and a Pal while you are mounting it. Leveling these Partner Skills will increase the damage you can deal, allowing you to easily face tough Alpha and tower bosses.

All Partner Skills Effects

Enhance Pal Stats with Statue of Power

Palworld - Statue of Power

The Statue of Power structure lets you use Pal Souls to raise your Pals' max health and attack, defense, and walk speed stats. This is available early in the game, so you'll be able to enhance stats even if you just started, as long as you have enough Pal Souls.

As you play through the game, you'll be able to get more Pal Souls. Save up these souls so you can easily build endgame combat-ready Pals! You can also reset your Pals' raised stats with some gold.

Statue of Power Guide: How to Upgrade Catch Power and Pals

Farming Pal Souls

Palworld - Pal Souls in the Wild

You can obtain Pal Souls simply by picking them up in the wild, opening random chests, breeding, and butchering Pals with the Meat Cleaver. Pal Souls are also available as item drops from certain Pals.

How to Farm Pal Souls

Choose Best Active Skills

Palworld - Choosing Active Skills

Pals are able to learn more Active Skills as they level up, with the more powerful ones being available as they reach their max level. These moves can deal high damage, but at the cost of longer cooldowns, so try to balance your Pal's moves by including moves that deal less damage but have lower cooldowns so you can constantly deal damage.

You can also give your Pals coverage moves to cover their weaknesses against Pals that has an Element they are weak against via Skill Fruits. Skill Fruits can be found on unique trees found all around the map. There are no limits on what Skill Fruits you can give to Pals, so you can teach any move to any Pal.

List of Active Skills

Consider Using Legendary Pals

Palworld - Legendary Pals

Legendary Pals are unique Pals that naturally posses the Legend Passive Skill and their signature damage-boosting passive. They can be found in the wild as Alpha bosses and boast higher HP compared to ordinary Pals. If you want a Pal that can tank more attacks compared to other Pals, you can consider including a Legendary Pal in your team.

Do note that Legendary Pals that you've caught as Alpha bosses cannot pass down their large health pool to an offspring Legendary, so you will not be able to breed for a Legendary Pal with additional Passive Skills without losing their high HP.

List of All Legendary Pals and Locations

How to Train a Strong Team

  1. Have a Team with Different Elements
  2. Level Up Your Pals
  3. Improve Your Pals' Stats
  4. Breed Pals to Pass Down Skills

Have a Team with Different Elements

Palworld - Have a Team with Diverse Typings
Building a team of Pals that have different types will increase your chance of defeating more enemy Pals and bosses, and ensure you don't encounter a situation where you can't progress due to a bad type match-up!

Fire Type Pals Have Great Offensive Typing

Palworld Hit Chillet from Behind With Huggy Fire.png

Pals with the Fire Element type are the only element to hit more than one element for super effective damage in the Ice and Grass Type. This makes them one of the best types offensively and a great choice to add to your team.

Additionally Fire Element Pals will keep you warm during the night making them a must for beginners to survival games!

Element Type Matchup Chart

Level Up Your Pals

Palworld - Level them Up
Leveling up your Pals by defeating other Pals, especially Alpha bosses, is necessary to advance the game and explore more areas as even if your Pal has a favorable type match-up, it will instantly lose against a higher level foe!

Increasing your Pal's level also unlocks new Active Skills which allow your Pals to use more moves when battling.

How to Level Up Fast

Pals Cannot Evolve

Palworld - Jormuntide Ignis Hatched
Pals do not evolve into a stronger version of themselves. If you want to get stronger Pals, you need to level them up and improve their stats.

Some Pals have Fusion variants which have different Elements and skills from their original versions. These can be found either in the wild or via breeding.

List of All Fusion Pals and How to Get

Improve Your Pals' Stats

Palworld - Improve Stats

The Statue of Power lets you use Pal Souls to increase your Pal's max health and attack, defense, and walk speed stats, allowing it to fight better in battles.

If you want more stat bonuses, you can also distill Pals with the Pal Essence Condenser, which will grant them bonus HP and attack and defense stats.

Breed Pals to Pass Down Skills

Palworld - Breeding Different Species
When breeding Pals, the child will inherit the characteristics of its parents which include Passive Skills and Active Skills.

Since you can breed two Pals of different species, you can get Pals with skills that they normally won't have when caught in the wild!
