Palworld: How to Combine and Infuse Pals | Breeding Guide

Palworld allows you to use your existing Pals to make new ones via breeding, and it also allows you to combine existing ones to infuse others.

You can keep getting new Pals via breeding, and then making them stronger via Infusion. It’s an endless cycle of power-boosting your Pals!

In this guide, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about Pal breeding and Pal infusing.

Pal Breeding and Infusing 101

How to Breed Pals

You can start breeding Pals once you reach Level 19, which allows you to unlock the Breeding Farm building.

This building requires 100 Wood, 20 Stone, and 50 Fiber. These are extremely common materials, so you should already have them by the time you reach Level 19, thankfully!

When you build the Breeding Farm, just approach the two Pals you want to breed and lift them. Then throw them into the Breeding Farm!

All species can breed together, which we’ll detail more later on. Just make sure that you get one male and one female.

Now, the only thing left to do is to put Cake inside the box on the Breeding Farm’s fence. You will need 1 Cake for every 1 egg laid.

Apparently, the Pals will just refuse to give birth unless they have Cake to celebrate the occasion?

Anyway, now you can just check the farm anytime you want to see how the breeding progress is going. Once the circular bar around the egg icon fills up, an egg will spawn.

Lastly, you’ll need to take the egg and put it inside an Egg Incubator. They will hatch into a brand-new Pal once the incubation process finishes.

Do note, though, that the incubation and breeding speeds are both affected by your difficulty settings.

Details About Breeding

So, now that you know how to breed Pals, it’s time to talk about some of the minutiae related to the breeding mechanics.

First, as we mentioned previously, all species can breed together. There seems to be no limitation, even with combinations that make no sense.

However, random pairings of species will just get you a random common egg. This will hatch into a random Pal, completely ignoring whatever Pal species were the parents.

On the other hand, breeding two of the same species will always yield an egg of that same species. For example, breeding two Lifmunks together will always get you an egg that hatches into a Lifmunk.

Also, breeding two Pals of the same species can get you an egg for special elemental variants. This doesn’t work for all species, as not all of them have elemental variants.

Lastly, the newborn Pal’s abilities and stats seem to be based on how strong their parents are.

This includes whether or not the parent was a Lucky Pal, so you will ideally want to get Lucky Pals for breeding.

How Infusion Works

Besides actual regular breeding, there is also Infusion. This lets you condense the essence of various Pals of the same species to strengthen them.

To be able to do Infusions, you will need to get the Pal Essence Condenser, which is one of the Ancient Technologies.

Once you’ve got the Ancient Technology and built the Pal Essence Condeser, just approach it and interact with it.

This will bring up a menu showing all of your Pals. Select the one you want to strengthen, and then select others of the same species that you wish to sacrifice via infusion.

The number of Pals required changes per species and also based on how many times you’ve already infused a specific Pal. Either way, you can see it on the right side of the Infusion window.

For example, strengthening the Lamball in the screenshot will require that you sacrifice 4 other Lamballs.

Infusion is definitely worth it, as you get to combine all of your Pals of a species into a stronger one. That said, you should think about whether you really want to do it.

Not because of the ethical implications mind you, it’s just that sometimes you need more Pals to act as workers instead of just having one buffed Pal.

Anyway, now you know everything there is to know about breeding, combining, and infusing your Pals!
