What is Nitewing's capture rate?

Nitewing has a base capture rate of 59 out of 100 in Palworld 1.0. Weakening it below 30% HP and attacking from behind with a matching-tier Pal Sphere substantially improves the odds.

Is Nitewing a good mount?

Nitewing's ride speed is 942, earning it a 7/10 mount rating on Pal Stars. It's a competent traversal mount for its element.

What are Nitewing's best passive skills?

For PvE damage, stack Musclehead + Ferocious + Lucky on Nitewing. For a base role, swap in Workaholic + Serious + Artisan. Reroll unwanted traits with the Trait Extractor at the Ancient Tech bench.

How do you breed Nitewing?

Nitewing's breed power seat determines its parent pairings. Cross two parents whose combined breed power averages closest to Nitewing's, put them at a Breeding Farm with a Grade S Cake, and incubate the egg for the best hatch rate. The Pal Stars breeding calculator lists every valid pairing.
