Palworld: Best Pals to Start the Game

The optimal starter in Palworld cannot be precisely determined from a technical perspective, as players do not have Pals at the beginning and instead need to capture one themselves. To do this, you force it to its knees before hurling a Sphere at it. However, there are various Pals that you can find in the early game, serving as choices for starters. Given the potential challenges in obtaining Palworld Pal Spheres and Paldium Fragments, it is crucial to know how to most effectively utilize these precious Spheres.

An outstanding starting Pal in Palworld that you can capture early is Daedream, the floating dark spirit. Daedream only appears at night, but they are frequently found on the map, and their glowing purple heads make them easily visible from a distance. Daedream is a great starter because it is ultimately a versatile and useful Pal in combat. It uses ranged attacks that rarely miss, and due to its type, it inflicts increased damage against the majority of initial low-level Pals you’ll encounter.

As a second option, I recommend obtaining Foxparks. They also stand out from a distance with their fiery tails, although you may need to go a bit further to find them, such as in forests. They often have type advantages in these early stages of the game, and their range means they typically take less damage or encounter fewer obstacles in Palworld’s geography. Finally, I suggest capturing a Tanzee, the green monkey. Not only is it a decent early-game fighter, but Tanzee also possesses a variety of skills that make them truly helpful as basic workers, especially if you need a farmer.

Have fun!
