Palworld is a game of resources, be they the raw materials you use for crafting or the Pals you catch to staff your base. The further you get in the game, the rarer the resources you’ll need become, and eventually you’ll have to learn how to get High Quality Pal Oil in Palworld.
Palworld is an open-world Survival game take on the monster-collection genre. In it, you’ll catch Pals and use them to develop an industrialised base, manning factory lines that will eventually yield powerful automatic weapons later on. Once you reach a certain point in the game, you’ll need Polymers to craft much of anything. These, in turn, require High Quality Pal Oil to craft. This guide will teach you how to secure a steady supply.
Palworld is available on Steam and Xbox. It’s also free to download for Game Pass subscribers on either platform. If you’re looking for more rare resources, check out our guide on how to get Ancient Civilization Parts in Palworld.
How To Get High Quality Oil In Palworld
There are two main ways to get your hands on High Quality Pal Oil in Palworld. Interestingly, neither involves mining for it. These methods are as follows:
Farming Oil From Wild Pals
When defeating or capturing Pals in the game’s open world, you’ll often receive item drops as nice additional rewards. High Quality Pal Oil can be dropped by a range of Pals in the game, including:
- Woolipop
- Quivern
- Digtoise
- Dumud
- Flambelle
- Grintale
- Jormuntide Ignis
- Mammorest
- Mammorest Cryst
- Elphidran
- Elphidran Aqua
- Relaxaurus
- Relaxaurus Lux
Of the above, Digtoise and Dumud are likely your best options, as they can both be found reliably, and in large numbers, in the desert area north-east of the Investigator’s Fork fast travel point.
Buying Oil From Wandering Merchants
While less reliable, you can also purchase High Quality Pal Oil from one of the many Wandering Merchants you’ll encounter in Palworld. The items these enigmatic traders sell can vary, but we’ve found that the Wandering Merchant in the Desiccated Desert’s Duneshelter often stocks the Oil. And at a very reasonable 300 Gold per pot, too.
What Can You Use High Quality Pal Oil For?
Once you’ve got some High Quality Pal Oil, just what can you do with it? The primary use for the item is as a crafting material for Polymer, a high-level material used in the creation of many useful electrical appliances.
After unlocking Polymer by reaching level 33 on the tech tree, you can craft it for two High Quality Pal Oil per piece of Polymer. You’ll need a lot of Polymer later on in the game, which means you’ll need a lot of High Quality Pal Oil, but now you know exactly how to get it.
