Best Base Locations in Palworld
These are our choices for the best base locations in Palworld and we chose a variety of them based on nearby resource deposits, how easy it is to build structures here, and how easy it is to protect them from enemies.
remember that this list is subjective and aims to give you a general overview of the areas where building a base can be most beneficial.
Twilight Dunes – (-96, -120)
This area of Twolight Dunes is a good location if you want to grow coal with ease. Building multiple structures here can be tricky since the coal deposits are located on a tall rock formation, but it will work if you opt for a simpler base with a single goal in mind. However, it’s this rock formation that makes it much more difficult to successfully complete raids, so you might want to think about hiding a thing or two here as well.
We recommend learning how to survive in the desert if you choose this area, as the weather in Twilight Dunes can change drastically. Additionally, if you are looking for high quality Pal Oil or to capture your own Alpha Anubis when you are at a higher level, Twilight Dunes is the place for you.
Mossanda Forest (246, -90)
This area is northeast of the Mossanda Forest fast travel point and contains several large ore deposits. This location is a simple area to build a base as it is quite isolated and surrounded by many essential materials. There may be a few enemies around here, but they should be easy to take down if your friends are above level 19.
There are no extreme weather fluctuations in this region and the climate is generally flat. There are slightly raised areas that allow you to easily see an incoming attack and there is enough space to create an effective defense strategy to stop intruders.
Mount Obsidian (-499, -524)
This area is south of the Mount Obsidian Midpoint fast travel statue and east of the Eternal Pyre Entry fast travel point. We recommend bringing a Fire-type flying mount like Vanwyrm with you to get around quickly and safely. We recommend this one as a secondary base location, as other essential materials, such as Paldium Shards and Wood, are harder to find here.
If you are looking for a place to build a base for Sulfur cultivation then this one is for you. Obsidian Mountain can get hot, but if you have heat-resistant armor or a Fire-type buddy by your side, the heat won’t be much of an issue.
This area is largely flat, making it easy to arrange multiple structures for your base. The only thing to note is that there will be some level 35+ friends that you need to deal with, so maybe use them as a late game build area.
Sealed Kingdom of Swift (314, -16)
Don’t panic, we’re not talking about entering the Kingdom itself, we’re talking about an area very close to it. This location is southeast of the Sealed Kingdom of the Swift fast travel point and the Alpha Verdash boss battle area.
The area is slightly more difficult in terms of placing structures as it is divided by a body of water, but there are no weather fluctuations to contend with. There is lots of essential resources in the surrounding forests and there is even a group of ore deposits on one of the banks.
Additionally, the location is not on top of a fairly tall hill all around, making it easier to spot incoming raid attacks and can make for a rather picturesque home at sunrise.
Mount Obsidian (-537, -477)
Another one for Mount Obsidian! This time, if you are looking for a place where much more in a large, flat area where the risk of being attacked is lower, then this is the place for you. However, we recommend using this one as a secondary base location as other materials are rare here if you want to focus on things other than ore.
The area around Obsidian Mountain is, as always, extremely hot, so you’ll need a Fire-type buddy on your team or some heat-resistant armor to survive here, but the multiple ore deposits are worth it. the punishment. If you place your Palbox strategically, your base can include most of the ore spawns here. Additionally, the fact that the area is mostly flat means that placing structures is quite simple.
Astral Mountains (-202, 253)
This location is east of Pristine Snowfield and southwest of Unthawable Lake, but you should prepare for extreme cold if you go there. You can counter the weather by having a Fire-type buddy at your side and building heaters into your base once you’ve established it.
It might be cold, but it’s the best place we’ve found if you want it Firm Pure Quartz. Additionally, the Astral Mountains are home to several high-level friends and other useful materials, so braving the cold air to establish a base there is definitely worth it.
However, there is usually a level 30 or higher buddy here that you will need to get rid of to build your base safely.
