Palworld is an immersive experience with over a hundred species of pals, having a diverse range of elements attributed to them. The type system gives each pal one or two elemental types, which decide the strengths and weaknesses of that pal against its other counterparts.
This Palworld guide includes a type chart that represents all 9 element types and their effect on each other. All of these types either deal increased or decreased damage depending on their pre-defined role in the game. By understanding and effectively utilizing the chart, you will be able to take down any adversary and pave your way to the endgame with ease. Without further ado, let’s start our typical journey.
Palworld Type Chart Explained
As stated earlier, every pal in Palworld possesses a distinct elemental type, making it weak or strong against other pals. When going into combat, you must know which elements will give you an advantage or which ones can do the opposite. Going in blind is never recommended.
All Elements’ Weaknesses and Strengths in Palworld
The image and the type/ element chart below can further assist you in understanding the element types better.
| Element Type | Strong Against | Weak Against |
|---|---|---|
| Electric | Water | Ground |
| Water | Fire | Electric |
| Fire | Ice and Grass | Water |
| Ground | Electric | Grass |
| Grass | Ground | Fire |
| Ice | Dragon | Fire |
| Dragon | Dark | Ice |
| Dark | Neutral | Dragon |
| Neutral | N/A | Dark |
From the pal type/ element chart above, it is evident that:
- Most types are either strong or weak against others
- The Fire type is the most preferable and powerful element in Palworld, as it is strong against both Ice and Grass.
- Neutral type is not strong against any other type. Hence, Neutral pals are always picked for their base utility, and not for their combat prowess.
When fighting against enemies, choose pals that match the opposition’s weakness. If a pal is strong against the enemy, it deals double the damage. If the attacking pal is weak against the enemy, the damage dealt will be halved. So, while fighting a Water-type pal in Palworld, for example, you must bring one of the Electric element pals to dominate the battle.
