Battle Tactics

[Foster]

Hi all.

I'm new to Palworld and I'm trying to figure out some new battle tactics to use against my opponent. Exchanging ideas and sharing battle tactics could seriously help others, and me, become a better Trainer.

Looking forward to hear what everyone has to say!

I suggest keeping the type chart handy, I know you can access it via the options menu but it doesn't hurt to have the chart open on your phone too! Also remember that Pals get a same type attack bonus if they use moves that align with their typing. Also guns are super OP, once you craft your first one you'd be surprise how much damage you can do alone with a gun. I managed to take down some weaker pals in just one hit, but if you're wanting to catch pals I don't recommend using guns since you'll most likely kill the pal before you get a chance to catch it. Be aware of your surroundings as well during combat, you don't want to accidentally fall off a cliff and take fall damage.

What I do when I fight against a much higher boss, you can cheese the fight by when the enemy is casting or launching the attack, you can get the pal in the ball and then out quickly, negating the attack entirely. Oh and poison is op against bosses, it's not tided by pal or your attack, it's tided by the max health of the enemy, plus it's a crowd control and adds a lot to the catch rate, a must in my opinion.

I have seen videos of people capturing tower bosses, is that valid battle tactics? If it is you can go look that up

I know you can capture them, but it doesn't result in a win, you just get kicked out. And their passives and damage isn't all that great, only for the meme and huge hp bar. The only one that can work is Viktor with Shadowbeak, but you want it only for the unique ability that only him has.

I see, I didn't know that, thanks for the heads up for when I inevitability try to do this lol, maybe having a thicc boi is a valid battle tactic?

If you do a build base on your damage, yea, like 4 gobfins and one meat shield.

Was about to ask why Gobfins, then did a search, I am assuming because they increase your attack?

Yes, with 4 of them max out plus a rifle, you are a laser, you melt through enemies. But don't forget to put skill points in your attack, every point in attack is a percent increased in damage. Like, if I have 112 instead of 100, now I do 12% more damage on all my weapons.

I see I see, honestly this is probably exactly the sort of thing the op is looking for, hope he sees this, I will keep this in mind too. But if you dont put point in stamina or weight, wont the game be miserable to play? You could just get a pal to do your attacking for you right?

I never put a point in stamina ever and I don't feel like it's too low. Of course you don't need to put every point in attack, you can put in weight enough and still have high attack plus accessories to increase your attack.

Putting a pal doing your attack is like the main strategy of the game .
You can choose from a normal team, with different types, or a hyper carry type team, one carry and other 4s to increase it's damage, like shadowbeak/Frostallion Noc (or any dark type) and 4 hoocrates(which increase the attack of any dark type), Orseck (or any electric type) and 4 sparky (or 3 if you want a flying mount).

This has now unintentionally been patched.

He must have felt crushed like me, I heard there is a way to get Steam to roll back an update, I don't know exactly how, I know you wanted to still catch the bosses, maybe there is a mod out there for that
