Since Palworld is populated by various Pals, you have to learn how to use them to survive. Luckily, like in the Pokemon series, you can catch these creatures. When you catch your first Pal, you will discover that it has various Skills, including passive ones, which can be quite confusing in Palworld for new players.



Unlike active skills, passive ones do not give your Pal new abilities. Instead, they are traits that can improve or degrade your creature’s stats.

What Are Passive Skills in Palworld?

All Pals have different sets of Passive Skills in Palworld, as they are randomized when captured. In other words, you will be able to find out whether the Pal you choose has good Passive Skills or bad ones once you catch it – so you should be ready to hunt a lot.

To find out about all the Skills of your new buddy, open your inventory and go to the Party tab. There, players will find all the active, companion, and passive Skills that Pal has. Basically, passive skills in Palworld would be more correct to call traits.

Each of these traits has a unique name, which may partially indicate what kind of buff or debuff it provides. For example, the Runner Passive Skill obviously increases Pal’s movement speed. But some of them can be confusing, like Hooligan, which increases damage but reduces work speed.

It is also important to note that all Passive Skills are divided into three Tiers. The higher the Tier, the greater the Skill bonus. But this also applies to debuffs. So you don’t want one of your main Pals to have a Brittle trait, which significantly reduces defense.

How to Choose Passive Skills in Palworld

Wild-caught Pals have random Passive Skills, making it difficult to create the perfect party. However, you can still choose what traits your Pals will have. To do this, you need to breed several Pals so that their child gets their Passive Skills. Of course, this process is quite complicated, and you will need quite a lot of time and attempts to achieve the desired result. However, Pals with some good Passive Skills are worth all your efforts.

Basically, that’s all you need to know about how Passive Skills work in Palworld. At first, they may seem like minor buffs and debuffs. But in fact, they can significantly weaken your Pals if you are unlucky with the traits, so you should pay attention to these Skills every time you catch a new Pal.
