How to Breed and Select Skills

Breeding Method

2 Assign a male and female Pal
3 Place a cake to obtain an egg
  • 1Construct a Breeding Farm

    Breeding Farm Level 19
    Breeding Farm Obtain
    CraftingMaterials
    Wood×100 / Stone×20 / Fiber×50

    First, raise your level to 19 and unlock the Breeding Farm in the Technology menu. Then, construct the Breeding Farm in your base. Since it requires a large amount of Fiber, it is recommended to use a Crusher to break down Wood and create the necessary materials.

  • 2Assign a male and female Pal

    Once you have built the Breeding Farm, throw Pals in the ranch and assign a male and female Pal. The specific type of Pal does not matter as long as their genders are different. Additionally, the offspring will inherit skills from their parents, so it is recommended to choose Pals with powerful skills as parents.

  • 3Place a cake to obtain an egg

    Cook in a Cooking PotMaterials
    Flour×5 / Red Berry×8 / Milk×7 / Egg×8 / Honey×2

    After assigning Pals to the Breeding Farm, make a Cake and place it in the food box to start the breeding process. Cake can be crafted in a Cooking Pot.

    • Try to automate the acquisition of cake ingredients.

      Honey
      Honey Obtain
      Dropped by Beegarde and Cinnamoth

      The production of ingredients to make a Cake can be automated, so if you automate everything, you won't have to worry about running out of Cake. It's a good idea to always have a stock of Cake so that you can make many Pals and combinations.

    Finally, let's hatch the obtained eggs. Egg hatching can be unlocked at Ancient Technology Lv7.

How to Select Skills through Breeding

Steps to Select Skills through Breeding
1 Perform skill selection for the parent
2 Breed with a male and female with desired skills
3 Repeat breeding until you obtain the desired Pal
  • 1Perform skill selection for the parent

    Perform skill selection for the parent

    The skills of a Pal are determined upon capturing, so it is recommended to obtain Pals by purchasing from merchants or capturing them out in the world.

    • Skill selection is possible at the base by capturing merchants

      After capturing a Merchant, the merchandise lineup changes when they are brought in and out of the base. By repeating this process until you obtain a Pal with the desired Passive Skill, you can easily perform skill selection without having to capture Pals in the wild.

    • Some Passive Skills cannot be obtained from merchants

      Skill Effect
      Passive_Gold
      Legend
      ・Attack +20.0%
      ・Defense +20.0%
      ・Movement Speed +15.0%
      Passive_Gold
      Rare
      ・Work Speed +15%
      ・Attack +15%
      Passive_Gold
      Attribute Attack Increase

      (e.g. Flame Emperor)
      ・Attribute Attack Damage +20.0%

      However, some passives cannot be obtained from merchants. Legend is exclusive to Legendary Pals, and Rare is exclusive to Lucky Pals, so try to explore and capture them. Also, passive skills that increase attribute attacks, such as Flame Emperor, are learned by specific Pals, so try to capture the corresponding Pals or obtain them through breeding.

  • 2Breed Pals that have the desired skills

    Breed with Pals that have the desired skills

    Once the parents have been carefully selected, breed a male and female Pal that have the skills you want the Egg to inherit. The inheritance of skills is random, with 0 to 4 skills being passed down, so it is recommended to breed multiple times until you get a Pal with the desired skills.

  • 3Repeat breeding until you get the desired Pal

    Repeat breeding until you get the desired Pal

    Keep breeding until you get the desired Pal. Using a breeding search tool will make it easier to find the route to produce the desired Pal, so it is recommended to use it to raise your own strongest Pal.

How to Assign to Breeding Farm

With the specification change in Ver0.1.4.0, assigned Pals will no longer get hungry and the assignment to the Breeding Farm will be fixed.

Throwing Pals in the Breeding Farm

Pal World _Breeding

Through breeding, there are cases where the offspring is born as a different species from the parents. This allows you to obtain new Pals that you haven't acquired yet.

Offspring will be the same species if the parents are the same species

If the parents are the same species, the offspring will also be the same species. This can be useful for mass-producing Pals needed for a specific reason.
