There are 9 Palworld types, also known as Elements. They are all connected and influence each other in terms of strengths and weaknesses.

The attack type and weapon equipped are dependent on the player’s in-game level, as well as on how much you’ve progressed in the Palworld storyline.

The choice of how to strike the Pals you want to capture or bosses you fight is on you, but our advice is to assess the strength of the Pal and act accordingly.

When it comes to weapons, it isn’t that different from other survival games. There are basic weapons, ranged weapons, firearms, and even rocket launchers when you reach the highest levels in the game.

Once you start your adventure in Palworld, make sure you craft and equip yourself with all of the basic tools used also as weapons. Here is a list of all basic tools/weapons in Palworld.

  • Stone Axe
  • Stone Pickaxe
  • Hand-held Torch
  • Wooden Club

As you progress further in the game, you’ll unlock more advanced weapons and collect materials needed to craft both them and the ammunition for some of those weapons. This includes bows, shields, spears, etc. Below you can find a list of some of the weapons that belong in this category.

  • Old Bow
  • Common Shield
  • Stone Spear
  • Fire Bow
  • Bat

In the later stages of Palworld, you are even able to equip weapons as powerful as the Crossbow, Musket, Handgun, Flag Grenade, and even Rocket Launcher. Surely when you reach this phase of the game, you can easily eliminate both opponents and rival Pals with these extremely powerful weapons.

That’s all you need to know about attacks, elements, and weapons that are present in Palworld. Combine them all to suit your playstyle and combat tactics. Once you do that, and equip yourself with the best weapons, you are ready to face your enemies and catch all Pals. Good luck!
