Palworld Pal Care and Status Ailment Guide

Having a team of Pals in Palworld can be a dream come true, but it comes with its own set of challenges. One of the biggest hurdles is keeping them happy, healthy, and working efficiently. In this guide, we'll show you how to care for your Pals and treat all their status ailments in Palworld.

Pal Maintenance and Care Tips for Palworld

Pals will work and fight for you as long as they have food, a hot spring, and a bed in Palworld. Here are some essential maintenance and care tips to keep your Pals happy and healthy:

• Build either Straw or Fluffy beds for them from the Infrastructure section in the build menu.
• Build a Hot Spring (or two) for them from the Infrastructure section in the build menu.
• Build a Feeder Box for them from the Food section in the build menu and keep it stocked by filling it manually or keeping the best farming Pals in Palworld at your base.

However, even if you have all these buildings in your base, your Pals can still get stressed out due to poor working conditions. To get better working conditions in Palworld, make sure they have all the buildings outlined above and that they're all accessible.

If your Pal can't reach their bed, they will sleep on the floor. A stocked Feeder Box means nothing to a Pal who can't reach it either. If your base isn't strategically placed in one of the best spots, Pals are likely to get stuck on cliffs or rivers, meaning they won't get to their destination.

All Status Ailments and How to Cure Them in Palworld

To treat an ill or injured Pal in Palworld, build a Medicine Workbench. This is part of the tutorial quests and will set you up for better Pal maintenance in the game.

Below, you'll find a list of every issue your Pal can have and how to fix it in Palworld:

How to Get Medical Supplies in Palworld

There are different ways to acquire medical supplies in Palworld. The easiest option is to buy them from The Wandering Merchant directly, as long as you have enough Gold Coins. Wandering Merchant offers three different types of Medical Supplies, ranging from a couple of hundred up to a couple of thousand Gold Coins.

Another method is to Loot fallen enemies or capture certain types of Pals. The drop chance isn't 100% guaranteed, but it is pretty high. You can also craft Medical Supplies at a Medieval Medicine Workbench by using various resources.

Explaining Each Pal Status Effect in Palworld

In Palworld, your Pals may suffer from one of nine different status effects, which will require you to utilize a Medieval Medicine Workbench at the bare minimum to create medicine for them.

Hungry/Starving

Some Pals have a tendency to become famished when their food runs out, while others forget to eat altogether. To treat a hungry or starving Pal, pick up the Pal and toss them towards a nearby Feeder Box or feed them manually.

Overfull

At times, your companions may have a more enormous appetite than they can handle, and they may consume more than their stomachs can hold, causing them to become Overfull. While this condition is not a cause for concern, you can quickly restore your Overfull Pals to their normal state by providing them with Low-Grade Medical Supplies.

Sprain

Working tirelessly at your base, logging, or mining all day can be physically demanding, leaving your Pals with sprains. However, you can quickly treat these injuries as you would a common cold by using low-grade medical supplies.

Cold

It's likely that your Pals will catch a cold, but don't worry; curing them is a simple task. All you need is Low-Grade Medical Supplies. These supplies can be produced at a Medieval Medicine Workbench by combining 2x Horns and 5x Red Berries.

Ulcer

To address ulcers, you can follow the same protocol as you would for fractures, which involves administering your furry companion with standard medical supplies.

Fracture

Fractures are more severe than sprains, so you'll need more advanced medical supplies to treat them effectively. Instead, you can craft medical supplies at a Medieval Medicine Workbench by using 1 bone, 3 ingots, and 3 horns.

Depressed

Your Pals in Palworld can sometimes feel down and unwell due to the long hours they work without proper facilities to maintain their mental health. To help them feel better, you can use High-Grade Medical Supplies to treat their Depression.

Weakened

When your Pals are feeling weakened, their productivity levels and speed can take a hit. To treat them, you'll need to provide them with high-grade medical supplies.

Its eyes are bloodshot! Something is wrong

If you notice that your Pal's eyes are suddenly bloodshot and tired, it's a sign that something is not right with them, either mentally or physically. To ensure that your Pals stay healthy, it's crucial to keep track of their Sanity and Hunger levels and provide them with a comfortable base to work in.

Upset and not willing to do any tasks

In Palworld, there may be times when your Pals feel they need to be more motivated and productive. By providing them with a special type of food, you can revitalize their energy and help them get back on track.

Incapacitated

If your Pal is Incapacitated, it's likely they fell during battle. There is no Phoenix Down or Revivify spell in Palworld. Instead, you'll have to take your incapacitated Pal back to the base and wait until the countdown is over before dragging them back to life.
