Palworld 15 Things I Wish I Knew | Starter Guide

so you want to be the very best pal Tamer like no one ever was well I've spent dozens of hours exploring pal world and I've got just the right tips to help you reach that goal with ease here are 15 things I wish I knew about pal world let's start with a question I know all of you are going to be asking when you start playing how the hell do I get a gun po world has been called Pokémon with guns for a while now but you don't get any firearms for hours into the experience erience at player level 20 when you gain access to the weapons workbench fortunately there's still a way to bust a cap and some Pals before you reach that point first you're going to need to catch a leaf monk Leaf monk life mon Leaf monk because at player level 11 you'll be able to unlock Leaf Monk's submachine gun when crafted this item allows your little green friend to take advantage of its partner skill Leaf monk recoil when activated Leaf monk will jump on top of your head and fire its SMG in the direction that you point for a limited time now I know the limited use seems like a bummer but this is just to hold you over until Level 20 when you can use your own gun and leaf monks SMG at the same time besides you can always use the partner skill again once the cool down is done another early option is to equip Tanz with an assault rifle this partner skill is available at player level 12 but unlike with Leaf monk you can't help tany aim and those monkeys are a horrible shot look at him look at him missing every shot the cat is right in front of him he's there you go he hit one boom all right cool for a different type of Firepower catch a fox park at player level six you can craft a harness for this fire breather that allows you to pick it up and use it as a flamethrower now before you wake up on the beach Dazed and Confused take a look at the custom World settings because there's a lot you can change under difficulty you'll see another option that reads custom difficulty inside are a plethora of Sliders that will change the speed of the day and night cycle the rate at which you and your pals gain experience how easy it is to capture a pal and so much more if you've already begun your adventure there's no need to worry or restart your playthrough as these settings can be changed at any time next time you're at the world select screen pick change World settings at the bottom of the screen this is useful because it lets you jump into the game experience it at its default State and then pop out to change things that you may have found too hard too easy or too annoying like how fast your character and Pals get hungry hey those arrows aren't going to craft themselves no lunch breaks sorry about that where were we oh yeah tip number three by default pow world will drop you into an area called Windswept Hills but if you'd like to spawn somewhere different there is a way die whenever you perish you'll see a handful of respawn points in biomes you haven't even explored yet so if Windswept Hills isn't your jam or you just want to start differently than another character you made kick the bucket after you load in and pick another spot for your humble beginnings personally I wouldn't do this because the pals in those different areas may be at a higher level and looking to kick your ass but if you love the smell of danger in the morning go ahead set up your first base Elsewhere for the sake of this video though I'm going to talk as if you started in the default location as that was my experience by now you've spawned in and you're ready to get the ball rolling but something feels off where's the person in a lab coat waiting to greet you with three starter monsters well there is none but the good news is you're free to grab whatever pal catches your eye so go wild however I do have some recommendations I found that the lamb balls are essential for your base I don't carry one around in my party but they're hard workers and I've never seen them complain about the work conditions civas are useful because unlike the Lambs these pink kittens can mine resources the only problem is the ones I had working at my base got stressed fairly often then there are the Chickapea and to be honest I mostly ignored These Guys these little chickens quickly became my punching bags I used them to test a weapon I crafted or practice the powers of a pal I preferred or grab the eggs that they drop to cook later or the sweet delicious chicken meat that they drop as well speaking of food in po worldl the food you collect or cook can spoil if not eaten in a timely manner while playing take notice of the little timer on all of the edible items in your inventory or your storage crates this will let you know how much time you have to use them for yourself or your pals funny thing about this is that my food never went bad during my play time the timer just always reset however I'm including this tip because it's a mechanic in the game that you should be aware of just in case there's a patch that fixes the busted timer when the game releases in Early Access for everyone if that happens to be the case and food starts to collect flies in your pocket just know that at level 13 you'll be able to craft a cooler to store the food in that'll make it last longer and speaking of storage there's no need to constantly carry all your crafting materials or drag them along to each workbench visit pal world has one of my favorite features in a crafting Survival game the workbenches can read what you have stored in any of the different crates you have scattered around your base campfires work the same way when cooking the ingredients don't need to be in your pockets this is not the case with incubators however you'll need to find where you stort that egg and then bring it over yourself to be hatched now before we get too far away from the subject of food I want to talk about the box that you you can craft to feed your pals on the outside this box has a design that makes it look like it's constantly full of fruit for your buddies to munch on however this is not always the case you'll need to manually open it up to see if it's fully stocked with goodies so that you don't have stressed out hungry Pals refusing to work hopefully there's a patch that will introduce a change of appearance for the box as it empties with all the capturing you'll be doing your down to have an overflow of Pals in your pal box now this isn't a problem but why not benefit from the excess around the map you'll find Pal Merchants who will buy any pal from you for varying prices you can also buy Pals from that same Merchant and the small selection seems to change with each passing in-game day the problem is I've never found a reason why anyone would buy the pals on offer they don't seem special or more powerful than the free ones in the open world so in my opinion they're just a waste of money at the time of writing this I've only encountered one of these merchants in this small settlement on screen but the map is huge so there's got to be more right but if extra cash isn't what you're after you may be more interested in getting some extra goodies from your additional Pals each pal drops different things for example lamb balls drop wool chickpea Drop Eggs the big cow ones drop milk if you have extras of these or other Pals why not use the excess to farm these drops there are two ways you can do this the violent way and the nonviolent way let's start with the ladder one of the structures you can add to your base is the ranch Pals that hang out there will poop out their drops for you to gather later lovely just keep in mind that for this to work the pal must have a farming skill for the pals that you want to farm that can't use the ranch you might want to craft the meat cleaver Instead This weapon becomes available at player level level 12 and it transforms the pet action into butcher causing you to hack up your pal of choice and then collect what they [Music] drop when I first started playing I thought that the pals could only take full advantage of their skills when they were at the base doing jobs that you assigned them to this is far from the truth if you're out with a pal in your party that is good at mining you can just toss the ball at a pile of rocks and they'll automatically work on mining it for you my current favorite pal for something like this is Rush or whose move Reckless charge takes large chunks of rocks at once this type of resource Gathering makes crafting tools like a pickaxe a completely pointless thing to do all you need to do is craft the saddle for rush or at player level six and boom lots of mining in one move when you know you want to go out and gather certain things just go out with a specific pal on hand they don't degrade the same way your tools do if you're heading out for a fight especially if it's a boss battle and you know the opposing Pals type you should pay attention to the game's Elemental matchups so that you're well equipped these matchups are very similar to Pokémon so fans of that series may already know them by heart Electric types beat water water beats fire fire beats grass and so on this list can be found towards the bottom of the survival guide under the tab labeled elements but if you happen to get completely wrecked during a fight the only way to heal those dead Pals is to place them in the pow box for 10 realworld minutes there are unfortunately no Pok Center likee buildings and sleeping in the game does not make them heal any faster if your pals are just injured they will heal passively inside their ball over time similar to how your character does outside of a ball there are weirdly no potions in the game game yet however there is medicine for your pals with broken bones ulcers and depression oddly weird and specific don't ignore the statue of power this structure which looks like a very popular Pokemon is where you can enhance your capturing power and boost pal stats like HP attack defense and more the former uses little leaf monk Collectibles that you can find hidden around the world the latter uses pal soles which can be found around the world as well or obtained from Pals that drop them the caves in the game aren't just areas that you can walk in and out of instead they're instant dungeons that lock and unlock throughout the day so if you come across one that's boarded up mark it on your map and check back later these dungeons have proven themselves to be barely worth the trip but they do contain a boss and bosses drop ancient Tech that you need to unlock special devices so I guess now let's say you hate where you place your storage your house your workbench Etc there's no need to go all fortnite on your creations and Chip Away with a weapon just activate disassembly mode this lets you quickly scrap anything recollect the materials you used and keep it moving so now that we've gone through all of that do you feel like a better pal Tamer are you ready to Take On The World good now hit the comment section and let me know what you think of palor and what tips you have for fellow Tamers out there yeah
