Palworld: Any Tips for a New Player?
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: If you don’t like something… like dropping your stuff on Death, change it.
What you need to know
Palworld offers customizable world settings that you can adjust to fit your preferred playstyle. Players often modify default rates, such as experience gain and death penalties, to create a smoother solo experience. Exploring the game without relying on online guides is encouraged for maximum enjoyment.
Step by step
- Adjust your world settings before getting too far into the game. If you want to slow down your leveling speed so it matches your tech tree progression, lower the XP rate to 0.5 or 0.3 for a more exploration-focused pace.
- Change game rules that cause frustration, such as the setting for dropping your items upon death.
- Increase the maximum number of allowed bases and the total number of pals you can have at your base.
- Turn off building decay by setting building decay outside bases to 0.0 to prevent damage to structures like bridges or base edges that fall outside the active circle.
- Build an expedition station as soon as it becomes available and utilize it regularly.
- Capture a large quantity of pals, learn how to inspect their passive skills, and check the passives of every pal you catch.
- Figure out how to swap your pals' attacks and review pal element types by hovering your mouse over them to check their major weaknesses.
- Optimize the hunger requirements for your base pals so you no longer have to worry about feeding them constantly.
Tips
- Use the built-in game options to tailor the experience to your preferences.
- Take your time exploring the world and figuring things out on your own rather than looking up guides.

Seems fun so far.
What players suggest
If you are playing solo, lower the XP rate to like x0.5. The default x1 is going to have level faster than your tech tree. If you don’t like something… like dropping your stuff on Death, change it. The options are there to make the game better for you. Increasing Number of bases or Pals you can have are things you might want to consider changing.
If you like exploration, XP to 0.3 seems like a pretty good spot. Increase the number of bases to max and pals at base to max. Set building decay outside bases to 0.0. If you have a small bit that goes outside the circle, or if you need a bridge or something it's much more convenient. Other than that, explore, have fun, don't look up guides just enjoy.
Make an expedition station as soon as you can and use it, capture many many pals. Learn how to view passives, check passives of pals you have caught, figure out how to swap pal attacks. While viewing pal details you can mouse over the pal element type to see a listing of the major pal weaknesses. Try to optimize the hunger requirements of your base pals so that you don't have to worry about…
