Where does Paladius spawn in Palworld?
Paladius spawns most reliably around the Forgotten Mines. Night and weather variants can shift its exact patrol path — expect roughly a steady stream of encounters.
What is Paladius's capture rate?
Paladius 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.
What element is Paladius weak to?
Paladius is a Grass-type Pal. That means it takes extra damage from Fire and resists Water and Electric. Bring a partner of that counter-element for the fastest weaken.
Is Paladius good for base work?
Paladius is tagged for Planting, Gathering. On the Pal Stars base tier list it rates 8/10 — a top-shelf worker worth breeding for.
Is Paladius a good mount?
Paladius's ride speed is 888, earning it a 6/10 mount rating on Pal Stars. It's a competent traversal mount for its element.
What are Paladius's best passive skills?
For PvE damage, stack Musclehead + Ferocious + Lucky on Paladius. 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 Paladius?
Paladius's breed power seat determines its parent pairings. Cross two parents whose combined breed power averages closest to Paladius'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.
