Palworld Tier List
Data-driven Palworld rankings across 138 Pals. Unlike tier lists that rely on subjective combat ratings, this tool computes rankings from the live game files: work-skill levels (12 work types), skill versatility (number of distinct skills), and elemental coverage. Filter by element type to find the best Fire kindling Pal or the strongest Electric base worker. Data sourced from the open-source PalNPM project (MIT licensed).
Why "Top Workers" Often Beats Combat-Only Picks
On most servers, you'll spend 80% of your time at base — gathering, mining, crafting. A high-total-work-level Pal like Anubis or Mossanda Lux contributes more to your overall progression than a combat-only Pal that sits idle when you're not boss-hunting. That's why this tool surfaces total-work rankings first.
For pure combat ranking, see your weapon's element matchup against the boss — element advantage matters more than raw Pal stats. The Pal Finder tool helps you locate elementally appropriate captures.
Endgame Base Team — Suggested Roster
- Anubis (Ground) — handiwork L4 + transporting L2. Single best handiwork Pal.
- Mossanda Lux (Electric/Grass) — gathering L4 + handiwork L3. Elemental flexibility for boss fights.
- Faleris (Fire) — kindling L3 + lumbering L3. Top dual-purpose fire Pal.
- Beakon (Electric) — generating-electricity L4. Powers your refrigerators and electric devices.
- Wumpo (Ice) — transporting L4 + lumbering L3 + cooling L2. Massive carry capacity.
- Jormuntide (Water/Dragon) — watering L5. Single best Pal for plantations.
