Crude Oil is a crucial resource in Palworld, essential for crafting advanced items like Missile Ammo, Frag Grenades, and Flamethrower Fuel. Players seeking to expand their crafting capabilities will need to find a reliable method for acquiring this valuable material.
Locating Crude Oil Deposits
Crude Oil deposits can be found scattered across the Palapagos Islands. According to current information, the most productive areas for these deposits are Feybreak Island and Twilight Dunes. Due to the harsh climate, especially the heat in Twilight Dunes, Feybreak Island is often considered the optimal location for establishing a base dedicated to Crude Oil extraction. These deposits are identifiable by their distinct dark, oily markings on the ground.
Extracting Crude Oil
Once a deposit is found, players can construct and place a Crude Oil Extractor directly over it. Unlocking the Extractor requires reaching Level 50 and spending two Technology Points. The materials needed for crafting are 50 Circuit Boards and 250 Pal Metal Ingots. After construction, the extractor must be placed over the deposit and powered with electricity to begin production.
Alternative Acquisition: Pal Drops
For those who prefer not to establish an extraction base, Crude Oil can also be obtained as an item drop from certain Pals. While enemies found on Oil Rigs might yield it, focusing on defeating specific Pals offers a more direct route. The Pals known to have a chance to drop Crude Oil include Kitkit, Maraith, Menasting, Terra, Smokie, and Sootseer. It is important to note that these drops are not guaranteed, and players may receive other materials instead.
