One of the best features ofPalworldis base management, and Pals can do a lot of things besides just accompany players on their adventures through the Palpagos Islands, fromcrafting gearto mining to gathering resources — and even defending their bases in case of Raids.
The annoying enemy factions and even wild Pals will try to destroy all the things players built periodically, so to prevent it, some Pals should be placed in alert mode to intercept the invaders and handle the defense stations. This list covers the best Pals to defend bases from Raids, from lower-tier Pals toend-game Legendaries.
11Depresso
Never Sleeps, Always Alert
Depresso is one of the first Pals players get access to when roaming around the Plateau Of Beginning, and they will find it by night near water spots or forests. So, it is not a hard Pal to catch, and the best thing is that it never tires out. Thanks to its Nocturnal feature, it will keep working day and night, taking some rest periods once in a blue moon.
This also works for base defense, since it will alert other sleeping Pals of the attacks. And, thanks to its Handiwork, it can manage battle stations and other defensive structures.
10Dinossom
One Of The Strongest Early Game Pals
Players get access to Dinossom pretty early in the game, with couples or trios or them roaming around the Plateau Of Beginning. It is a level 15-16 Pal, soplayers need Mega Spheresto catch them, but by the time they reach level 15, they’ll be able to get it without too many issues.
Dinossom’s strong points are its resilience, high HP pool, and strong Dragon-type attacks combined with Grass-element attacks that can cause some serious AoE. The perfect Pal for base defense in the early stages — plus, it isgreat at collecting wood.
9Relaxaurus
Will Send Invaders Flying Away
Do not be fooled by itscute, adorable appearance: this thing is a beast. With access to powerful Water and Dragon-type attacks, high AoE damaging blasts, and high stats, Relaxaurus is the perfect base defense Pal.
Plus, you may use it to breed some of the strongest late game Pals: for example, crossing it with Quivern yields aJormuntide. Its strongest attack is Dragon Meteor, which causes huge damage to single targets while also blasting nearby foes.
8Mossanda
Strong Mid-Game Pal With Access To Great AoE Attacks
Mossanda is a giant angry panda who can tackle most base Raiders at melee or mid-range while also resisting most attacks thanks to its high defense and HP pool. Having two or three roaming around the base will help to stop attackers while other pals take them down from a safe distance.
Mossanda Luxis its Electric-type version and has less Defense but deals more damage. It also has access to AoE electrical attacks that can stun targets in a wide area. Both of these variants are good choices for base protection.
7Katress
A Mid-Game Pal Who Never Sleeps And Uses AoE Fire and Dark Attacks
Thanks to its Nocturnal behavior, Katress will work day and night. Unlike Depresso, it has a higherSanityconsumption rate, so this Pal will have to take some rest periods between shifts.
Its greatest features are its strong attack and its access to AoE Fire and Dark attacks like Shadow Burst. It can also learn advanced fire abilities, like Inferno. Great pick to defend choke points and cook down invaders.
6Fenglope
Fast, Resilient, And With Access To Many AoE Ice Attacks
Fenglope has one of thefastest Speed statsfor a non-flying Pal, a good balance between HP and Defense, and a strong Attack stat. It has access to one of the best Ice Abilities that causes Damage in a huge AoE radius: Blizzard Spike. It also has access to a signature move called Cloud Tempest that pushes back opponents and damages them in an area.
Finally, this Pal learns Pal Blast, the strongest Normal-type Ability, which causes huge single-target damage. Its great move variety makes it great at taking down high-priority targets as well as pushing back (and damaging) aggressive groups of raiders.
5Faleris
Powerful, Fast, Pushes Enemies Away, And Summons Storms Of Fire
Faleris is a giant fire bird that can be obtained in the late game, or throughBreedingin mid-game. Its powerful fire attacks cover a wide area with giant fire tornados, and its dive attack pushes back enemies while executing them stylishly.
Faleris is a force to be reckoned with, and setting it loose in the base can improve the base’s defense capabilities quite a bit. Just a couple of these can defend against most ground attacks, but they can get overrun by Sky Pal Raids, so they’ll need ranged support to be at their most effective.
4Jormuntide Ignis
A Nuclear Bomb In The Shape Of A Sea Serpent
Jormuntide Ignis is a Fire/Dragon Pal with access to the most destructive attacks of both types. Boasting one of the highest Attack stats among all Pals, this beast is capable of annihilating anything that comes close to your base without permission.
It is a little bit tricky to obtain, but players can try their luck with breeding Nitewing with a Helzephyr (two relatively easy mid-game Pals) to get a Jormuntide. Then, cross the Jormuntide with a Blazehowl to get a Jormuntide Ignis.
3Anubis
Powerful Melee Combatant That Is The Best At Defending From Pal Attacks
Anubis is one of the best Pals in the game; be it for combat, mining, crafting, or base defense, Anubis excels at everything. Its signature move is Spinning Roundhouse, a wide area AoE melee strike that will push enemies far and wide. This is one of the reasons why Anubis is so good at base defense.
The other reasons are its incredibly high base stats, attack speed, and mobility, making it the perfect interceptor to chase down raiders who have become spread out. Players can breed Anubis relatively easily by crossing a Bushi and aPenking(both boss Pals can be captured around level 20).
2Orserk
Power, AoE Blasts, Highly Resilient, And Highly Effective At Long Range
Orserk is a titanic Electric/Dragon Pal with access to the best of both worlds, and that means one thing: powerful AoE abilities that blast opponents into pieces. It is quite resilient as well, and quick to react.
On its downside, its high food intake can be a problem, and it is prone to overeating, causing various sicknesses. But, when in a pinch, players can let loose this beast and watch the fireworks. From a safe distance, of course.
