How to farm Bones in Palworld
The best way to farm Bones in Palworld is by battling Pals that drop them with a Pal of your own that exploits their Type weakness. The best Pal to farm for Bones is Vixy, as you can find them near where you first spawn and they’ll be relatively low level.Â
Before you start slaughtering Vixy, however, make sure you catch at least one. They’re an important Pal to have at your base since they passively dig up items at a Ranch, including Pal Spheres.
Suppose you’re not actively hunting Pals to farm Bones. In that case, it’s still worth beating any Pal you encounter, as they provide a steady stream of valuable materials, allowing you to gather a decent haul of resources for whenever you need them.
Where to buy Bones from Wandering Merchants in Palworld
Wandering Merchants have Bones for sale among the rest of their wares, though the merchants themselves can be a pain to find. Luckily, you’re sure to find one in the Small Settlement located near the center of the map. Palworld has a few settlements and towns throughout the map, but this one is the easiest to find if you’re in the early stages of the game.
Bones cost 100 Gold each, which is relatively cheap, meaning simply shelling out the cash might be the most time-efficient method for anyone who’s looking to stock up on this material. Plus, this location also happens to have a Pal Trader, so if you find yourself short of coins, you can always sell a Pal or two.
