Palworld Glitches and Exploits (April 2024)
As Palworld is still in Early Access, it has several useful exploits that may impact the player's experience. Here are all the significant glitches in Palworld.
All Exploits and Useful Glitches
Pal Sphere Boost
This exploit involves climbing on top of a Pal Sphere while catching a Pal, which launches the player high up.
This glitch only triggers when you successfully capture the Pal to which you threw the Pal Sphere.
Infinite Pal Spheres
Unlimited Legendary Spheres Glitch
Though the infinite pal sphere glitch has been patched out already, a new glitch that makes sure you having the capture rate of Legendary Spheres has surfaced. Use this on regular Pal Spheres that are easily craftable and you'd have virtually 'unlimited' Legendary Spheres to use.

Infinite Pal Spheres Glitch Patched Out
Credits to the Youtuber Zytin for discovering this exploit!
You can glitch out your character by shooting a bow and then throwing a Pal Sphere in quick succession, all while riding a mount. Despite having no Pal Spheres in your inventory, your glitched character can throw Pal Spheres and capture pals.
This glitch has since been patched out and the team is unable to replicate the glitch again.
Refresh Food Expiration
Sorting your inventory easily refreshes the food expiration times on all food items in your inventory. Moving them to a chest or vice versa also refreshes the expiration.

Rerolling Dungeon Alpha Bosses
Rerolling Dungeon Bosses may be an unintended mechanic where you can despawn the boss and have it spawn as another Pal.
Once you enter the Dungeon Boss Room, you can reroll the boss by moving away from the boss room to despawn the boss and then return.
Catch Tower Bosses
| This glitch was inadvertently fixed on the Version 0.1.5.0 Update due to several other changes. |
If you get a wanted level, get chased by PIDF Guards, battle a Tower Boss, and have the guards damage the boss, you'll be able to catch the Pal along with the Tower Boss!
Caught Tower Boss Pals retain their HP from the boss fight, making them very tanky and useful in battles.
Moving While Overweight
Grappling Gun Exploit
Even if you are unable to walk due to being overweight, there is a workaround to this by using the Grappling Gun.
While using a Grappling Gun, there is a cooldown period. Therefore, it is advisable to have two of these guns, allowing you to switch between them and use them continuously.
Carry Weight Glitch
If you want to move a large stack of items that exceed your weight limit, click and hold the stack you want from the storage screen. Keep holding the stack while exiting the storage menu and going to whichever other storage space you want to transfer the stack in.
Take note that this glitch only works on PC when using keyboard and mouse controls. Xbox players, unfortunately, cannot do this Carry Weight glitch.
Black Marketeer Gold Farming
Hanging Trap Exploit
The Hanging Trap is particularly effective in capturing the Black Marketeer, as well as other stationary NPCs like Pal Merchants and Wandering Merchants.
After trapping them, you have the opportunity to damage them and reduce their HP without them fleeing or initiating a fight, making the process of capturing or defeating them much easier. You can also place a Campfire right below the trapped Black Marketeer to easily defeat him and get his drops.
Pal Attacking From Behind Glitch
Send out your Pal, and when you notice it readying an attack, talk to the Black Marketeer. If done correctly, the Black Marketeer should freeze up and be unable to retaliate.
You can then wait for your Pal to finish him off, help your Pal out, or when he's at low HP, catch the Black Marketeer.
Talk and Attack Glitch
By pressing the attack button as you talk to the Black Marketeer, you should be able to damage him without him noticing. This is only effective when using melee weapons and bows. Guns and crossbows don't seem to trigger this glitch.

Recover Flying Pal Stamina on Water Surface
You can recover your Flying Pal's Stamina on the water surface.
Flying Pals lose stamina while flying and recover them while on the ground. Interestingly, the game appears to recognize the water surface as a type of ground area for this purpose.
Fastest Flying Mount Pals Tier List
Egg Duplication Glitch
With proper timing, you can both hatch an egg you're incubating and keep the egg in your storage, duplicating it.
Similar to the Carry Weight glitch, this requires you to click and hold an egg from the incubator to a storage space right before an egg is set to hatch. The egg should hatch in the incubator while you're holding on to it and also end up in your storage when you deposit it.
Instant Pal Revive and Heal Glitch
A glitch in Palworld allows players to instantly revive and heal pals to full health.
The instant heal glitch is best utilized when dealing with the toughest bosses in the game!
Instant Pal Revive and Heal Glitch
Infinite Syndicate Thugs Glitch
A glitch allows players to spawn infinite human enemies such as Syndicate Thugs and Gunners and farm items such as spheres, gold coins, and materials.
Infinite Syndicate Thug Glitch
Item Duplication Glitch
The item duplication glitch works by moving quickly across the border of your base to trick the game into constructing a structure without using any materials.
Due to the timing required for the glitch, it may take several tries to execute precisely and consecutively.
Loot Duplication Glitch
The loot duplication glitch works by killing and capturing a pal at the same time, tricking the game into providing the pal's loot twice.
This glitch is useful for farming rare materials that can only be acquired from rare pals.
Infinite Sweepa Boost Glitch
This exploit takes advantage of Sweepa's Partner Skill, which increases its Attack and Defense based on the number of Swee in the party.
Place a Sweepa and 4 Swee in your party, then ride on the Sweepa. Drop all four Swee, dismount, and pick them up again. Check your Sweepa's stats and you'll see that the Attack and Defense bonus for the 4 Swee has doubled onto itself. The best part is, you can do this as many times as you want to forge a Sweepa with astronomical stats!
2 Combat Pals at A Time Glitch
This glitch allows you to summon 2 Combat Pals at once without requiring a Pal accessory.
The exploit is tricky as it requires you to summon one incapacitated Pal in your party, summon a mount, get off the mount, and summon another Pal in the correct order. You will need to have the perfect timing to properly execute the glitch.
2 Combat Pals at A Time Glitch
Unraidable Base Glitch
This exploit guarantees an unraidable base with the use of partially built Viewing Cages to surround it.
It is required that you don't finish building the Viewing Cages as it will serve as an invisible barrier, making it impenetrable to enemy raids.
Clipping Glitch
You can exploit this glitch especially in dungeons where you can arrive at the chest room and get the treasures instantly without defeating the Dungeon Alpha boss as the clipping glitch will take you out of bounds.
Alternatively, you can easily fight the Alpha boss without taking any damage by using the glitch on the barrier located in the room.
Infinite Loot Glitch
This glitch involves Mount Pals and butchering them. You have to press the mount button while simultaneously pressing the butcher button so that the Pal will not be butchered at all.
This is very useful when farming for Rare Drops from certain Pals as repeating the process will provide infinite loot!
Freeze and Rocket Launcher Glitch
This exploit is the best way to easily defeat any Alpha Bosses, Legendary Pals, and basically any Pals that are currently stronger than you.
The glitch involves freezing the enemy with the Cryst Breath skill and then immediately attacking them with a Rocket Launcher, this will launch them midair and die from the fall.
Freeze and Rocket Launcher Glitch
Fierce Fang Glitch
You can move faster while riding Direhowl by exploiting the Fierce Fang Glitch. This is easily done by timing the jump button with the Fierce Fang Skill.
This glitch will launch you midair allowing you to move much faster than any other accessible method without draining your or your mount's stamina.
Use Palbox As A Fast Travel Point
A helpful exploit in Palworld involves using the Palbox as a Fast Travel Point. You have the option to establish up to three bases, each requiring the assembly of a Palbox.
By utilizing an additional base slot, you can construct a Palbox anywhere on the map. This enables you to conveniently travel to desired locations using its Fast Travel feature.
Pal Skill Cooldown Reset Trick
By dropping the Pal from your party and then picking it up again, you can reset your Pal's Partner Skill cooldown timer. Once retrieved, your Pal's skill will be fully charged and ready for use.
Repeating this process multiple times will effectively grant you infinite Pal Skill use!
Pal Skill Cooldown Reset Trick
Is there an XP Glitch?
Infinite XP Glitch
You can farm infinite XP via an elaborate glitch requiring you to have a Wanted Status which will provide you with unlimited guards following you and therefore unlimited XP.
You must build a tall tower within your base and ensure you possess a Gun as a weapon.
