Note: Unofficial fan-made guide. Base layouts and Pal assignments are suggestions, and game mechanics can change with patches.

With Palworld, base building got a major upgrade โ€” new workstations, expanded Pal capacity, and new resource nodes. Here is how to build an optimized base from scratch.

Top 3 Base Locations

Plateau of Beginnings โ€” Safe, flat, near starting resources. Best for first base.
Volcano Region (~-700, -300) โ€” Rich ore + coal nodes, natural Kindling bonus.
Snow Mountain (~-300, 500) โ€” Quartz nodes, Cooling bonus for refrigerated storage.

Optimal Pal Assignments

Base Pal capacity was expanded in 1.0. A balanced example spread: 2 Kindling, 2 Watering, 2 Planting, 2 Gathering, 3 Handiwork, 3 Mining, 2 Transporting, 2 Cooling, 1 Electricity, 1 Medicine.

Automation Tips

Place Feed Box centrally. Use the Monitoring Stand to assign specific tasks. Stack production lines: Furnace โ†’ Assembly Line โ†’ Storage, all in one row.
