Welcome to the exciting world of Palworld breeding! This guide will equip you with the knowledge and strategies to become a master monster breeder, creating powerful and diverse Pals to conquer the wild and build your empire.
How to maximize your Palworld breeding?
Now let’s start out Palworld breeding guide, leaving all the Palworld AI art controversies aside!
To begin breeding, you’ll need two Pals of opposite genders, each with sufficient health and happiness. Additionally, a breeding farm and cake, used as fuel for the process, are essential components.
Start by placing your chosen Pals into the breeding farm and providing them with cake. A successful breeding attempt will be indicated by a love message, followed by the laying of an egg after a certain period.
Once the egg is laid, transfer it to an incubator. The incubation time will vary depending on the species of the Pal. These are just the basics of the Palworld breeding system and there is much more to learn about. The key mechanics of Palworld breeding are as follows:
- Offspring appearance
- Inheritance of skills
- Fusion breeding
Offspring appearance
The resulting offspring will inherit physical traits from both parents. However, the specific combination of these traits is entirely random, leading to a mix of features or the dominance of one parent’s characteristics.
Inheritance of skills
Skills are passed down from the parents to the offspring, with a higher likelihood of inheriting rarer skills if the parents possess them.
Fusion breeding
By sacrificing three unwanted Pals, you can enhance a specific Pal with new traits and skills. The exact results depend on the Pals that are sacrificed.
To maximize your Palworld breeding, you must follow the following strategies and advanced techniques:
- Species crossing: Experiment with breeding different species to uncover unique Fusion Pals that possess combined abilities
- Trait selection: Focus on breeding Pals with desirable traits, such as combat prowess, resource gathering, or crafting skills, to tailor the offspring to your preferences
- Skill stacking: Prioritize the pairing of parents with complementary skills, creating offspring with powerful synergies
- Shiny breeding: Utilize the Shiny Charm and specific food to increase the likelihood of hatching a rare Shiny Pal
- Genetic modifiers: Certain items can influence the appearance of the offspring and increase the chance of inheriting specific skills
- Egg mutations: Rare mutations may occur during incubation, resulting in unexpected but potentially powerful variations in Pals
- Fusion combinations: Research specific Fusion combinations to unlock hidden or incredibly strong Pals with unique abilities
And please remember that, even if you have done all the things to maximize your Palworld breeding, breeding in this game is a chance-based process, so patience and experimentation are key. Keep exploring, strategizing, and refining your techniques to become the ultimate Palworld breeder!
How to use the breeding farm in Palworld
Now that we are done talking about the Palworld breeding system in general, it is time to explain how to use the breeding farm in Palworld. Using the breeding farm in Palworld is fairly straightforward, but it involves several steps:
Preparation:
- Unlock the breeding farm: You need to reach level 19 in the Tech Tree to unlock the Breeding Farm building
- Gather resources: Build the Breeding Farm using 50 Wood, 30 Stone, and 20 Fiber
- Choose pals: Select two healthy and happy Pals of opposite genders. Their happiness can be increased by feeding them their preferred food or having them participate in activities they enjoy
- Get cake: Bake a cake using 1 Honey, 1 Milk, 2 Flour, and 1 Egg. You can get these ingredients from various sources:
- Honey: Drop from Bee Pals or use Honeycomb Comb at the Extractor
- Milk: Milk Cow Pal or use Milk Canister at the Extractor
- Flour: Wheat Mill from Wheat grown on your Farm
- Egg: Chicken Pal or use Egg Carton at the Extractor
Breeding process:
- Place pals: Throw your chosen Pals into the Breeding Farm’s open slots
- Offer cake: Place the cake on the designated spot outside the Breeding Farm
- Wait for love: If successful, a message will appear saying “Love is blossoming between [Pal1 name] and [Pal2 name]”
- Egg Drop: After a while, the breeding process will complete, and the female Pal will lay an egg inside the Breeding Farm
Egg hatching:
- Take the egg: Pick up the egg from the Breeding Farm
- Place in incubator: Build an Incubator using 20 Wood, 15 Stone, and 10 Iron. Place the egg inside
- Wait and watch: The incubation time varies depending on the Pal species. Check the Paldex for specific details
- Hatching time: Once the incubation timer reaches zero, the egg will hatch, revealing your new Pal
Also remember to use the Paldex to check compatibility between different Pal species for breeding and experiment with different Pal combinations to discover new and exciting Pals.
