The Tierlist has moved!

v0.5.4 Meta
The current bosses or grinds in Palworld.
Tower Bosses
Bjorn & Bastigor are level 60, both for normal and hard modes. Other hard mode bosses are only level 55.
Currently any pal that can handle Bjorn & Bastigor will deal with the other bosses.
Raid Bosses
Xenolord is level 60, Blazamut Ryu level 55 and Bellanoir Libero level 50.
Any setup of Party and Base Pals that can handle Xenolord can handle the other bosses.
Oil Rig
The level 60 Oil Rig has huge hp bars and high damage enemies. You don’t want to spend time fighting the enemies, just grabbing the loot and getting out.
Mounts
Feybreak is a huge island so high stamina is now very nice.
Dungeons give no loot making them worth doing, so breeding for dungeons is not necessary.
Current Best Pals
If you want to breed the current best pals for each job.
Party Pals
Pal Damage Builds:
Knocklem is still king of Pal builds. Triple Attack and Defense is an insane buff putting it miles ahead of any other pal. It can be used to solo all Hard Mode towers with 0 player damage.
2-5 Knocklems with Dumuds as booster, rotating for 100% Partner Skill uptime (minimum 2 Knocklems).
Player Damage Builds:
All the Player Damage Builds use 4 Gobfins and 1 main Pals Partner Skills.
The main pal will either be a element swap pal (Max Attack Build) or a Felbat/Lovander for the lifesteal.
Knocklem Vs Gobfins
Knocklem
+Doesn’t need legendary weapons to reach max potential.
+Only requires 1 party for all bosses.
-not good vs Xenolord
Gobfins
+Required for Oil Rig and Xenolord anyway
+Max Dps
+Less requirement for “perfect” pals.
-Requires more pals to swap elements.
-Requires Player input
-Works better with better gear.
Base Raid Pals
Since any army you breed for Xenolord (& Ultra) will handle the other bosses you only need to breed one pal army.
Current recommended pals:
Base
Paladius, Jormuntide Ignis, Bastigor.
You also want at least 2-3 Rescue Pals. Best options are Blazamut Ryu, Jetragon, Paladius or Faleris Aqua.
Party
Frostallion + 4 Gobfins (optional: keep 1 rescue pal in the party)
Oil Rig Pals
Current Recommended Pals:
1 Mount (optional, you can glide out with a glider pal and bring 1 more Gobfin)
1 Galeclaw
1 Felbat/Lovander
2-3 Gobfins.
This build doesn’t stop to kill npcs, only the chopper. The Felbat/Lovander are left on a roof while the player grapples and glides to the small chests, shooting rockets to heal but not to kill.
Mounts
Leveling:
Direhowl -> Univolt -> Rayhound -> Beakon -> Shadowbeak -> Jetragon
This flow allows for electric skills on fast mounts for easy catching with ring of mercy.
End game:
Xenolord is the “best” but the required breeding can easily reach 5000 eggs.
Getting a Jetragon with Yakumo is much easier.
