Mau Umbra overview
Mau Umbra is a rare electric Pal known for its volt rider ability. Frequently sighted in the Bamboo Groves. It appears most reliably around the Bamboo Groves. In combat it deals Electric-type damage and slots into a party as a rare-tier Electric unit.
Base stats & ratings
HP 595 · ATK 260 · DEF 228 · Speed 82 · Ride Speed 620 · Stamina 240. Pal Stars rates Mau Umbra PvE 7/10, PvP 5/10, Base 8/10 and Mount 4/10 for Palworld 1.0.
How to catch
Mau Umbra has a base capture rate of 28 out of 100. Weaken it below 30% HP and use a Hyper Sphere or better from behind for the best odds. Elemental advantage (Fire vs Grass, Water vs Fire, Grass vs Water, Electric vs Water, Ground vs Electric, Ice vs Dragon, Dark vs Neutral, Dragon vs Dragon) speeds the weaken step.
Best moveset
Mau Umbra learns 4 active moves in Palworld 1.0. The strongest rotation is Solar Beam, Draconic Rage, Rock Blast. Pair the highest-power Electric move with a same-type STAB partner so both slots benefit from Electric-boosting passives.
Work suitabilities & base role
Mau Umbra is tagged for Generating Electricity. Slot it into a base loop that stacks its highest work value — for example, an power generator array line — and give it the Workaholic + Serious passives to squeeze out extra work speed.
Partner skill & mount notes
Mau Umbra's partner skill "Volt Rider" activates while it rides on your shoulder or is deployed. Its ride speed of 620 makes it a support-only rider — better as a base worker than a full-time mount.
