Where to find coal in Palworld

The easiest place to get coal is the Twilight Dunes desert near the center of the map:

Look for large black rocks in the desert that are darker than your usual stone node and more solid colored than your ore nodes.

Coal can be mined with any pickaxe, but a higher level pickaxe like one Metal pickaxe (15 stone, 20 wood, 5 bars) will make the mining process much faster.

There aren’t many teleport waypoints in the desert, so lugging coal back and forth to your base can be a bit difficult. To combat this, here are some prime locations to place a spare Palbox so you can travel to your base quickly and easily.

You will also find coal scattered everywhere Mountain obsidianbut this is a much more dangerous area.

Best locations for coal farming in Palworld

While Mount Obsidian also has coal, we’ll focus on the Twilight Dunes and Verdant Brook regions. They are much safer and easier for building a coal base.

Coal sites in the Twilight Dunes

There are two locations in the desert where five coal deposits are located close to each other. However, don’t forget to wear your heat-resistant armor during the day and your cold-resistant armor at night.

You can find the first location under the coordinates (-157, -92). Be careful as the alpha buddy boss Anubis can be walking around nearby.

The second location can be found under the coordinates (-97, -120). This location is located on a rock formation and is therefore relatively safe from attacks on bases.

Coal sites in Verdant Brook

For both locations in Verdant Brook, we recommend you get a flying mount, otherwise you’ll have to do a lot of climbing.

The first and probably best place to find coal can be found at the coordinates (189, -40). This location also has eight ore nodeswhich will definitely help your ball production.

The second location can be found under the coordinates (290, -20). Unfortunately, there are no eight ore deposits right next to the coal at this location, but they are there seven ore nodes just a short hike east.
