How To Change Loot Drop Rates From Enemies On Your Palworld Server

Learn how to change the enemy drop rate on your Palworld dedicated server to boost loot drops from defeated enemies, wild Pals, and bosses.

The EnemyDropItemRate setting controls the multiplier for items dropped by defeated enemies, wild Pals, and bosses on your Palworld server. The default value is 1.0. Increasing this value means enemies drop more loot per kill, which is great for faster progression or more rewarding combat.

Open the XGamingServer panel

Access the XGamingServer panel and stop your Palworld server.

Go to Startup

In the sidebar, go to Startup.

Edit the EnemyDropItemRate setting

Under the Gameplay section, find EnemyDropItemRate and change the value. The default is 1.0 (normal drops).

Recommended values:

ValueEffect
1.0Default drop rate
2.0Double drops
5.0Five times the drops
10.0Generous loot for casual play

Restart your server

Start your server from the Console page to apply the changes.

⚠️ Warning: Very high drop rates combined with a high DropItemMaxNum can degrade server performance as more items accumulate on the ground. Consider adjusting your dropped item limits alongside this setting.

💡 Tip: This setting pairs well with adjusting the XP rate for a faster overall progression experience.
