Coal is one of Palworld’s most coveted resources and is essential to improving your arsenal. Here’s how to find and farm coal in Palworld.

If you’re one of the millions of people playing Palworld right now, you probably want it to live up to the ‘Pokemon with Guns’ moniker. For this you will need coal. So find out how to get coal fast in Palworld and what you will need to farm it.

What is coal used in Palworld?

In Palworld, the main use of coal is in the production of refined ingots.. These special ingots are a key ingredient in crafting weapons like double barrel shotguns, shotguns, assault rifles, rocket launchers and more.

To make these refined ingots, you need to reach technology level 34 and unlock the blueprint for the improved furnace.. With this you can use coal and ore to make refined ingots.

This material is abundant in the desert region highlighted in orange in the image above. Coincidentally, this is also the best place to farm Pal Oil, which you’ll also need to make weapons in Palworld.

Coal tips are distinguished by their black color and can be seen quite clearly in the desert.

The best way to farm coal in Palworld

The desert is a harsh environment, so you will need to be well prepared. The first thing you’ll need is heat-resistant armor. This will help you avoid any temperature penalty.

You will also need a pickaxe strong enough to do the job. For coal mining, we recommend metal pickaxes. Make sure it doesn’t need any repairs before you start harvesting.

If you have a high enough base level and a free slot for another, we recommend placing a palbox near the end of the coal. This way, you will be able to return to your main base faster and deposit coal in Palworld faster.
