In this guide, you will learn how to level up fast to upgrade your character’s stats and get access to new types of gear in Palworld.
The entire game’s progression system revolves around leveling up. You will also be able to craft new structures and grow your army of Pals. It is important to try to level up as often as you can. Although there are many methods to do so, a select few are more efficient than others.
You level up by acquiring experience (XP), and doing nearly any activity in the game will help progress toward your character’s next level. This includes cooking, crafting, building, harvesting resources, defeating and capturing Pals.
How to Level Up Fast in Palworld
Catch Pals
By far the easiest way to level up fast in Palworld is to catch Pals. You will want to catch every type of Pal you encounter at least 10 times, as you receive a major XP boost for the first 10 captures. Every catch after this only provides regular XP, which is why you will eventually need to explore new areas and catch new Pals.
Pals can be caught using standard Pal Spheres, but you will need to start using more advanced ones as you try to capture Pals at Level 15 or higher.
Dungeons
Entering and completing dungeons in Palworld found throughout the open world is another great way to level up fast.
These are filled with enemies and loot, and if you manage to capture or defeat the boss at the end, you will receive a major sum of XP. Ensure you are close to the level you need to be to get through them without significant difficulty.
Tower Bosses
When you are ready for them, your first-time defeat of tower bosses is an effective way to level up. These enemies are some of the hardest in the game, but they provide massive amounts of XP and 5x Ancient Technology Points which are necessary to unlock special items.
How to Level Pals Fast in Palworld
Each of the Pals in your party will passively acquire portions of the XP when you do something. Simply bringing specific Pals you want to level with you during your adventures will help them gain XP quickly.
Alpha Pals
Slaying Alpha Pals found across the map helps you to gain some quick levels for your Pals. These enemies represent most of Palworld’s bosses, and they are quite tough. Once defeated, they respawn one in-game day later, and it helps to farm them for the Ancient Civilization Parts.
If you desire to level up Pals without bringing them to your party, just deploy them at the Palbox and let them work at the base. As long as there is something for them to stay busy with, they will level very fast. Ensure you build them a bed and keep the base’s Feed Box stocked up with food. Without a bed and a satisfied stomach, Pals will start slacking off and feel stressed.
