Produced on a Ranch

Assign the Pal to a Ranch at your base and it produces this on its own. The figure is the yield at the partner skill's top rank. Every Ranch Pal is listed on the Ranch page.

Strategy

Pal-drop farming tips

  • Butcher with a Meat Cleaver. Use a Meat Cleaver on a captured drop-Pal to butcher it — the drop table rolls the same as a wild kill, plus you keep the Paldex entry. Cheaper than chain-killing if the Pal is hard to find.
