Once you build a Palbox, you’re free to house up to480 Palsinside.

This can be accessed via theMissionsprompt at the Palbox.

Then launch them towards the activity you want them to focus on.

Prioritise Cloth

The most cumbersome survival mechanic in the early game of Palworld is the cold system.

Although torches are relatively easy to make, they take up a vital hand slot.

Instead, you’re able to make clothes from Cloth to stave off the cold.

Turn the Wool into Cloth and the Cloth into clothes at aworkbench.

Find a mount

There are some Pals that can be used as amountto significantly speed up traversal.

Although these creatures hunt in packs, it isn’t too hard to capture one early.

When you do, exploration becomes a lot more fun and less of a chore.

Fortunately, you might build alert systems at your base to deal with these effectively.

These are hostile camps where NPCs will attack you on-sight.

Usually, they have a Pal locked in a cage at the centre of these camps.

When you defeat the NPCs and unlock the cage, the Pal will be instantly teleported to yourPalbox.

Essentially each element has another element that they are strong or weak against.

This means when fighting a Pal, it’s good to pick an opposing Pal with opposite elemental abilities.

For example,Electric Palsare strong againstWater typesbut weak againstGround types.
