When you’re breeding your Pals, you want to make sure they reproduce with the the best possible traits. Here is a list of all Passive Skills in Palworld, as well as an explanation as to what they do.
All Passive Skills in Palworld & What They Do, Listed
In Palworld, every Pal you encounter comes equipped with a Passive Skill. As the name implies, these abilities are always quietly impacting how that creature operates and determines how it should best be used. Some Passive Skills make a Pal better suited to battling opponents, while others make it a more efficient workhorse around camp. You can’t select the Passive Skill a Pal comes with when you initially capture it, but when you begin breeding your captures, you’ll have a much steadier hand when it comes to controlling what skills are inherited by the offspring of the mating Pals.
