How to Get High Quality Pal Oil in Palworld

High quality Pal oil is an essential ingredient for crafting a range of mid- to late-game items in Palworld, including firearms, polymer, and advanced assembly lines. While not found in abundance in early game areas, this material can be obtained through a combination of dedicated hunting and efficient farming.

Finding High Quality Pal Oil from Pals

High quality Pal oil can be looted from several Pal species. Among those identified are Woolipop, Dumud, Digtoise, Relaxaurus, and Quivern. While other Pals may also drop this resource, Digtoise and Dumud, frequently encountered in the desert biome, are particularly effective for farming. Players venturing into these desert areas should ensure they have heat-resistant gear for survival.

As players progress into their mid-20s, hunting Relaxaurus becomes a viable option. These Pals can be found in an area near the Ascetic Falls fast travel point, making them convenient to track. However, players should be prepared for their challenging attacks.

To maximize oil acquisition, players can choose to catch Pals and then butcher them using the meat cleaver, which can be unlocked at level 12. This process yields both an initial drop from capture and an additional drop from butchering.

Farming High Quality Pal Oil

For a more sustainable source of high quality Pal oil, players can establish a farm by assigning a Dumud to their ranch. Placing a Dumud in the ranch allows it to produce two flasks of high quality Pal oil approximately every five minutes. To increase production, multiple Dumuds can be assigned to the ranch.

Dumuds can be found in the mid-game north of Windscream Valley, northwest of the starting area. Another location is the Isle of Murmurs on the northwestern edge of the map, which features a level-14 Dumud boss. Reaching the Isle of Murmurs can be challenging for players without a flying mount.

Crafting with High Quality Pal Oil

High quality Pal oil is crucial for crafting early firearms such as the musket and makeshift handgun. It is also a component in the weapons assembly line. Furthermore, this resource is necessary for the creation of polymer, a material required in large quantities for advanced weaponry and other essential items like circuit boards, refrigerators, and electric furnaces.
