How to obtain and farm ore in Palworld

When you reach a certain point Palworldyou need a lot of them ore to make ingots. Although ore deposits are littered in various places around the world, there are a few places with tons of ore deposits that are worth revisiting.

Remarkable, ore deposits come back to lifeso you can set up a base near these deposits and set up your friends to automatically mine them for you, although you’ll need some higher level friends to do that.

Below we explain where you can find ore Palworld.


Best ore farming locations in Palworld

To grow ore you just need a pickaxe. A higher level pickaxe will farm it faster, but you can even farm ore with the starting pickaxe.

The first location we like is above the Desolate churchseen here on the map below:

The second place we like is a little north of the Chillet boss:

As you can see, we have already set up camps to make the most of the area. But if you don’t want to set up camp here, you can simply farm the ore and bring it back. If you’re worried about carrying too much weight, you can also have friends like Cattiva or Broncherry to increase your carrying capacity.

There may be more ore reserves available Palworldbut these are the ones we found that are fairly immediately accessible.


Best friends to help farm ore in Palworld

To help you farm ore, Friends need their mining skills to be at least level two. Friends like it Digital (which can be found in the central desert area) can help with this.

The desert area in question is below:

As you can see from the map above, you can also find Digtoise in a far northern area, but the desert will be much more accessible in the early parts of the game. However, for the desert you need heat-resistant equipment.

Some other friends like it Penken also has level two mining, but because Penking also has many other skills – such as watering, crafting, transporting and cooling – he gets distracted and does many other tasks. We found it best to use a friend who only has mining capabilities, such as Digtoise.


If you start in Palworld, we have manuals for you, including a beginner’s guide and typing table. If you’re ready to take on the first tower boss, we have a guide for that too.
