Palworld Tier List

Updated 3 months ago · 2026-06-19

Palworld lives and dies by your Pal lineup: the right attacker, the right base crew, and a fast mount change the whole game. These boards rank Pals for combat, base work, and travel for general play, with linked entries leading to their full wiki pages. Catching a top pick early snowballs everything else.

Palworld Best Combat Pals Ranked

Ranked on raw damage, active-skill value, and how reliably each Pal carries fights and boss raids.

S

Meta

Legendary Dragon with elite ranged nukes and the best flying speed in the game.

Ice legendary that melts the fire-heavy late game and hits like a truck.

Dark legendary with huge burst and a strong active skill for raids.

Fire bruiser with massive AoE damage and tanky uptime.

A

Strong

Ground powerhouse with high attack and superb skills; also an S-tier worker.

Dark flyer with consistent ranged pressure and good mobility.

Fire phoenix that doubles as a fast mount with strong fire attacks.

Holy legendary tank with sustain and reliable damage.

B

Solid

The Electric bear (the Zoe & Grizzbolt boss) is a sturdy gatling attacker mid-game.

Well-rounded early-to-mid fighter with ice and water coverage.

Fast Neutral attacker and an excellent first ground mount.

C

Early game

Flamethrower handheld weapon early, but quickly outscaled.

Cheap ranged ice/water chip damage to start your roster.

D

Starter only

Your first catch: fine as a body, not as a fighter.
