Catch every new Pal
The first catch of each Pal grants a big XP bonus. Fill the Paldeck and level while exploring.
Re-catch for repeat bonuses
Catching the same Pal again gives less, but it still adds up during farming runs.
Run tower bosses
Tower bosses pay huge XP and unlock fast travel. Prep well and rush them as you grow. See the boss guide for prep.
Clear dungeons
Dungeons spawn waves of Pals and reward XP with each clear. They are denser than open fields.
Mine and craft
Every ore node and bench action grants XP. A working base levels you passively while you build.
Use Lifmunk Effigies
Effigies raise your capture power, which speeds future catches and the XP they bring. See the capture guide.
Join a guild or friend
Co-op splits the work and shares the kills, so the group levels faster together.
Do not skip sleep
Resting at a base restores stamina and keeps sessions efficient. Tired play is slow play.
Stack XP foods
Some foods grant temporary XP buffs. Eat before a boss or dungeon run to stretch the gain.
Level your Pals too
Your team gains XP from fights and base work. A leveled crew clears the next boss instead of stalling on it.
Two paths to levels
Pals level from combat and from working bases, so rotate them through both. Catch higher-level pals in the wild to skip the early grind, and feed them to boost stats. A crew that levels steadily turns the next boss from a wall into a warm-up.
