The locations pinned above are all great places to put a base for mining Sulfur. You can learn more about the best Sulfur locations below!

Palworld Interactive Map

Eternal Pyre Tower Entrance Location

World View	Map View
Coordinates: (-595, -511) Location: Can be found right next to the Eternal Pyre Tower Entrance Fast Travel Point.

The area above is an excellent spot to manually mine Sulfur due to its proximity to the Eternal Pyre Tower Entrance fast-travel point. From your base, you can fast-travel to this location and mine the 8 Sulfur nodes, then return to your base to deposit it in your storage.

With the abundance of Sulfur nodes in this area, this is one of the best spots where you can put a Palbox and establish a base for mining.

Mount Obsidian West Location

World View	Map View
Coordinates: (-744, -442) Location: From the Eternal Pyre Tower Entrance, travel northwest down Mount Obsidian to the lava pools on its west side.

This area has 7 Sulfur nodes near each other and 4 more in the surrounding area. This is not a spot with a nearby fast-travel point, so it's best used when you can build a base here for your Pals to mine the 7 Sulfur nodes or teleport here to mine all 11 Sulfur nodes.

If you're building a base here, take precautions to prevent your pals from walking on lava by building walls, blocking the other sulfur nodes, or placing your structures carefully.

Foot of the Volcano Location

World View	Map View
Coordinates: (-378, -511) Location: Can be found south west of the Fast Travel Point called the Eternal Pyre Tower Entrance.

This Sulfur farming spot has 8 nodes scattered around, so it may not be possible for a base to contain all of them. But, this Sulfur farming location is still a great spot to manually mine them!

Mount Obsidian Midpoint Location

World View	Map View
Coordinates: (-355, -410) Location: Can be found north east of the Fast Travel Point called Mount Obsidian Midpoint.

This Sulfur farming spot has 4 nodes close to each other. In addition, it also has a Volcanic Cavern nearby where you can also mine 2 to 4 more Sulfur nodes!

Mount Obsidian Midpoint South Location

World View	Map View
Coordinates: (-495, -511) Location: Can be found south of the Fast Travel Point called the Mount Obsidian Midpoint.

This location has 5 Sulfur nodes you can manually mine due to its fairly close proximity to a fast travel point. There's a couple more Sulfur and Ore nodes in the surrounding area.

How to Get Sulfur

Sulfur Mining Methods
Build a Sulfur Mine Mine From Yellow Rocks Use Digtoise to Mine Sulfur Easier

Build a Sulfur Mine

Level	Technology	Points	Description
45	Sulfur Mine	5 (Ancient)	Facility for producing Sulfur. Digging Sulfur is grueling physical work. Leave it to a Pal that is good at mining.

Starting from the Sakurajima update, it's possible to build a Sulfur Mine in your base, reducing the need to set up dedicated mining bases.

How to Get Sulfur Mine

Mine From Yellow Rocks

You can mine Sulfur from yellow Sulfur boulders. There are a lot of these boulders in the Desert and Volcanic regions of Palworld. These boulders can also be found in dungeons.

Increase Carrying Capacity

Other than increasing your Weight stat, adding a Cattiva to your party allows you to increase your carrying capacity by 50 due to its Partner Skill. So, if your only goal is to mine Sulfur, replace some of your Pals for a Cattiva!

How to Increase Carrying Capacity

Use Digtoise to Mine Sulfur Easier

Digtoise's Partner Skill, Drill Crusher, is an efficient skill to use to get Sulfur. You can use this skill to mine the yellow boulders more easily, which will allow you to quickly farm for this material.

Digtoise Location

Craft the Digtoise Heaband

Level Unlocked	Technology	Points	Material Requirements
19	Digtoise's Headband	2	Leather x20 Fiber x30 Stone x50 Ingot x10 Paldium Fragment x20

Do note that in order to unlock Drill Crusher, you need to craft the Digtoise's Headband which can be unlocked when you are level 19.

How to Farm Sulfur

Sulfur is a material that can be mined in Palworld. It is one of the materials required to create Gunpowder. So, if you are using Guns, then farming Sulfur to eventually create ammos is viable!

1. Catch or Breed Mining Pals
2. Set Up a Base in an Area with Sulfur
3. Build the Necessary Technologies
4. Assign the Necessary Pals
5. Bring Out Mining Pals
6. Build a Wall Around the Base

Catch or Breed Mining Pals

The first step to creating a Sulfur farm in Palworld is to catch or breed Mining Pals to automate mining Sulfur. Do remember that the higher the level of a Pal's Mining stat, the faster they are at mining Sulfur.

In the late game of Palworld, the Digtoise is a Pal that is readily available compared to the other top-tier Mining Pals. So, we recommend catching a bunch of Digtoise!

Set Up a Base in an Area with Sulfur

After catching Mining Pals, the next step is to set up a base in an area where Sulfur is abundant. In the late game, the Volcano biome has a lot of Sulfur boulders.

In the early to mid game, you can set up a base in the Desert biome can also be done since there are some Sulfur boulders there!

Best Base Locations

Build the Necessary Technologies

Level Unlocked	Technology	Points	Material Requirements
2	Wooden Chest	1	Wood x15 Stone x5
3	Straw Pal Bed	2	Wood x10 Fiber x5
4	Feed Box	2	Wood x20
5	Berry Plantation	1	Berry Seeds x3 Wood x20 Stone x20

Once you place a Palbox on an area where Sulfur boulders are present, you now have to build the technologies needed to maintain the Work Condition and automate the process of mining Sulfur.

The number of Straw Pal Beds needed depends on the amount of Pals you will add to your base. For the Feed Box and Berry Plantation, one for each is enough for everyone to use. Lastly, you only need a single Wooden Chest if you are only planning to store Sulfur inside it.

Pickaxe and Helmet Boosts Mining Speed

Level Unlocked	Technology	Points	Material Requirements
30	Pickaxe and Helmet	2	Wood x50 Stone x50 Ingot x50

If you are level 30, building a technology called Pickaxe and Helmet can be done to passively boost the work speed of any task that requires Mining. Having one in your base will allow your Mining Pals to mine Sulfur much faster!

Assign the Necessary Pals

After building all the Technologies needed for your Sulfur Farm, the next step is to assign the Pals needed to plant and gather Berries, water them, and pick up anything that is on the ground.

Assign a Tanzee

The Tanzee is a great Pal to assign for Planting and Gathering since it can do both. It can also transport the Berries to the Feed Box due to it having the Work Suitability called Transporting.

More importantly, the Tanzee can pick up the Sulfur to be mined by your Mining Pals and put it inside your Wooden Chest. With some Tanzees in your base, you do not need to assign other Transporting Pals anymore, allowing you to add more Mining Pals!

Tanzee Location, How to Breed, and Drops

Assign a Watering Pal

For the Berry Plantation to work, a Pal that has the Work Suitability called Watering is needed. With this, you can assign any Watering Pal to the Sulfur farm if you do not have the top-tier ones yet.

List of Best Pals for Watering

45B	Leezpunk Ignis		Kindling Lv. 1 Handiwork Lv. 1 Transporting Lv. 1 Gathering Lv. 1
71	Vanwyrm		Kindling Lv. 1 Transporting Lv. 3
72	Bushi		Kindling Lv. 2 Handiwork Lv. 1 Lumbering Lv. 3 Transporting Lv. 2 Gathering Lv. 1
74	Ragnahawk		Kindling Lv. 3 Transporting Lv. 3
76	Wixen		Kindling Lv. 2 Handiwork Lv. 3 Transporting Lv. 2
88	Reptyro		Kindling Lv. 3 Mining Lv. 3
96	Blazamut		Kindling Lv. 3 Mining Lv. 4
105	Faleris		Kindling Lv. 3 Transporting Lv. 3

As much as possible, try to use Fire element Pals in your base if you build it in an area near lava. Non-Fire element Pals take damage if they get too close to lava, which can impact your base's productivity.

List of Fire Element Type Pals

Bring Out Mining Pals

Then, for the Sulfur farm to work is to finally bring out the Mining Pals you've caught or bred. As you put them in your base, they will automatically mine the Sulfur within the base's vicinity. So, you do not need to fix assign them to Sulfur boulders!

Build a Wall Around the Base

The last step is to surround your base with Walls especially if your Sulfur farm is located in an area where wild Pals usually spawn. By doing this, the Pals inside your base will not get interrupted when doing their specific tasks.
