Want to know how to get Pal Fluids in Palworld? Pal Fluids are a useful (and perhaps mildly disturbing) resource that you'll need to gather in Palworld, especially if you want to keep your base Pals relaxed with a nice Hot Spring. Literally described as "body fluids taken from a Pal," Pal Fluids are harvested and utilised for their "high viscosity."

Putting aside the dark question of exactly what these fluids are, it's important to start farming water Pals if you want to stockpile Pal Fluids as soon as possible. We've listed where you'll find the Pals who regularly drop Pal Fluids below, as well as a few strategies for how to get Pal Fluids in Palworld's early game.

How to get Pal Fluids

Pal Fluids are usually dropped by Water Pals when either caught or defeated in combat. For that reason, we suggest taking Electric Pals with you when hunting for Pal Fluids. You can find Pal Fluids from the following Water Pals:

  • Celaray
  • Fuack
  • Gobfin
  • Jormuntide
  • Kelpsea
  • Pengullet
  • Surfent
  • Surfent Terra
  • Suzaku Aqua
  • Teafant

As you would expect, you can find Water Pals hanging around bodies of water like the coastline and rivers. Remember, as long as you encounter a Pal in the wild, they'll be entered into your Paldeck. You can then check the habitat of that Pal to see where you can find them on the map. If you actually defeat a Pal, detailed info - including a list of its possible drops - will also appear.

All Pal Fluids crafting recipes in Palworld

The main purpose of Pal Fluids is to craft Cement, which can then be used to craft high-quality structures like the Production Assembly Line and the Improved Furnace. In turn, this opens access to high quality armour and better Spheres, like the Hyper Sphere and Ultra Sphere.

As such, although the first thing you'll likely need Pal Fluids for is the Hot Spring, you will soon need a steady supply of it to fund future building projects. You'll also need Pal Fluids to unlock the Tomato and Lettuce Plantations, and by extension, more cooking recipes.

We've listed below the crafting specs that need either Pal Fluids or Cement to make. Bear in mind that this list is even more extensive once you unlock the ability to make Refined Ingots at an Improved Furnace.

Pal Fluids farming and crafting as a Palworld beginner

If you want to acquire Pal Fluids as quickly as possible, head to the nearest body of water to start farming.

Pengullets are probably the easiest water Pals to harvest for Pal Fluids, since they're not too far from your starting zone. Venture to the coastline and ocean near the Grassy Behemoth Hills, which are just to the northwest of the Plateau of Beginnings, and you should see groups of Pengullets congregating. Fuacks and Teafants shouldn't be too far away, and as you go closer to the water you're bound to run into some Celarays. If you end up dying at any point, you can also use this as a convenient excuse to respawn at the Windswept Hills Flying Fish Coast, which is across the water to the southwest of the Plateau of Beginnings. This area is chock full of water Pals, and the first time I respawned there, I emerged smackdab next to a whole pack of Celerays.

Once you've got your Pal Fluids, it's time to head back to base to see what you can build. The first structure you'll likely unlock on the Technology tree is the Hot Spring, which becomes available at Level 10 and is vital if you want to keep your base Pals' sanity, or SAN, high. A Pal with a low SAN will become depressed and slack off, so get that Hot Spring built ASAP. (One has to wonder if the Pals enjoying the Hot Spring are secretly bathing in the fluids of their fallen comrades... Best to not delve too deep into that horrifying scenario, I think.)

Pal Fluids are also a decent resource for quickly making money. If you're in need of Gold Coins and have a large supply of Pal Fluids at your disposal, head over to the Small Settlement to the west of the Plateau of Beginnings and sell your fluids to the Wandering Merchant for 90 gold each. If you're in need of funds to purchase Pals or more important items, this is a great way to rack up money in Palworld's early game.


And that's it for getting Pal Fluids in Palworld. For a full rundown of all of the furry friends in Palworld, check out our list of the best Pals in Palworld and how to capture them. For newbies, we've got an explainer of the best starter Pals and a useful selection of tips and tricks to assist you as you make the Palpagos Islands your home.
