How to get and farm Coal in Palworld

Palworld is a creature-collecting survival game with many resources like Coal that you need to craft essential items. Getting Coal is vital so you can craft firearms, which you’ll need in the mid-to-late game. Here’s everything to know about how to get Coal in Palworld.

What is Coal used for in Palworld?

In Palworld, you need Coal to craft Refined Ingots, a crafting ingredient for firearms like the Assault Rifle, Shotguns, Rocket Launcher, and others. But, you must reach level 34 to craft Refined Ingots and have an Improved Furnace in your base.

How to get Coal in Palworld

To get Coal in Palworld, you must mine coal nodes in the desert. The desert is the northern region marked on the map. You can mine Coal from the big, black rocks that spawn there, as seen in our image above.

To find Coal in the desert, you need to craft yourself Heat Resistant Armor and have strong tools like a Metal Pickaxe to mine the Coal from a rock.

The desert biome is also where the powerful Pal Anubis can spawn, and you can find many other important resources there too, like High-Quality Pal Oil.

Coal location in Palworld

Coal is located in the desert biome in Palworld. To find a Coal chunk, you can distinguish it by its black color. You’ll usually find them in clumps with other Coal nodes. Even with a metal pickaxe, they usually only drop a few pieces at a time, so it’s a time-consuming grind.

We found a place where a bunch of Coal spawned and dropped a Palbox in the middle of all the nodes, so we had an easy way to teleport between the Coal and our base to make the process smoother. But, if you already have the maximum number of bases set up, prepare for a long walk.

How to make a Coal Farm in Palworld

To create a coal farm in Palworld, find an area with lots of coal nodes around it, build a base there, and populate it with pals that have the mining ability, the same way you would for an ore farm.

Here’s what you need to build a Coal farming base:

• Palbox
• Wooden Chest (Five Stone, 15 Wood)
• Pal Beds (Five Fiber, 10 Wood each)
• Feed box (20 Wood)

Here are some good Pals for mining to keep at the base:

• Digtoise (Mining level three)
• Ice Reptyro (Mining level three)
• Menasting (Mining level three)
• Anubis (Mining level three)
• Tombat (Mining level two)
• Dumud (Mining level two)

So, there you have it. You know everything you need to know about getting and farming Coal in Palworld. Enjoy!
