Best Pals for Handiwork in Palworld

Handiwork is a crucial aspect in Palworld, as Pals who possess this skill are able to assist with constructing buildings and creating resources at your base. However, some Pals may excel in this area more than others.

Incineram’s proficiency in Kindling, Handiwork, Mining, and Transporting is enhanced by its Fire element. This Pal is capable of gathering, building, and transporting resources with ease. Although it excels in Handiwork, we suggest prioritizing this skill over Kindling and Mining.

Incineram can be located on the western side of Mount Obsidian. It is recommended to bring Water or Dragon-type Pals, such as Jormuntide or Relaxaurus, to assist in the battle and make it more manageable.

Mossanda is a great companion to have if you need help collecting new items and storing them. Its Level 2 Lumbering and Handiwork skills, combined with its Level 2 Transporting skill, make it adept at gathering wood and other resources and storing them in easily accessible storage units.

Throughout Palworld’s Mossanda Forest, you can come across various Mossandas. It would be beneficial to have a Fire-type Pal, such as Foxparks, Rooby, or Bushi, ready for battle.

  • Work Suitabilities: Handiwork Level 2 / Mining Level 2 / Cooling Level 2 / Watering Level 2 / Transporting Level 2

It is undeniable that Penking excels in Handiwork, but they are also highly skilled in various other occupations. Having a Penking at your base at all times is highly beneficial due to their versatility. You can assign them to focus solely on Handiwork for increased resource production, or have them switch between roles according to your preference.

Penking can be located at the Southern Wildlife Sanctuary, however, entering this region is deemed as a criminal offense in Palworld. Therefore, it is crucial to exercise caution. In a battle against Penking, the most effective Pals to use are those with Fire or Electric abilities. It is recommended to have at least one of each type of Pal with you for optimal results.

7. Loupmoon

Loupmoon can only be found at night in two designated areas: the Bamboo Grove located west of the Ravine Entrance waypoint, and the eastern area of the Ascetic Falls waypoint.

If you want to weaken this Pal, using Water-type Pals is your best option.

Lyleen Noct is the Dark version of the Grass-type Lyleen. Its Partner Skill, Goddess of the Tranquil Light, is highly beneficial as it can replenish a player’s HP. This makes it a valuable addition to any collection. Furthermore, with a Level 3 Handiwork suitability, it can also be utilized effectively at your base when not in battle.

To locate this Pal, venture into the Iceberg Mineshaft located in the snowy northwestern area of the map. To effectively defeat and capture Lyleen Noct, it is suggested to utilize Dragon Pals for smoother combat.

Anubis is undoubtedly the top choice for Handiwork, thanks to its impressive Level 4 skill in that category. However, it can be difficult to come across, as there is only one Anubis in the entire game, and it can only be found in the middle of the Twilight Dunes.

We suggest utilizing Grass-type attacks and Legendary Spheres against Anubis, if available.
