Dark Pals are excellent picks in Palworld to finish off enemies quickly in combat. They are powerful and should always be in your team.
People look for Dark Pals in Palworld for one reason only – absolute dominancy in combat. This is because Dark Pals are mostly fighting beasts that aren’t used much for working around the camp.
Over 20 Dark Pals can be spotted around the Palpagos Island, each of them having a different set of stats and abilities. Now, depending on the playstyle of players, their preferences for the perfect Dark Pal would vary.
Therefore, finding the one Dark Pal viewed unanimously as the best can be quite a head-scratcher. If you’re wondering the same thing, we’ve got you covered. In this guide, we have taken the best Dark-type Pals in Palworld and arranged them in a ranking, starting from the worst and moving towards the best.10. Mau
HP Attack Defense
70 60 70
Worsk Suitability: Farming Lv1
Mau is the least effective pal in terms of attack, health, and defense in our best Dark pals list. The only major highlight of this pal is its Gold Digger partner skill, which allows it to dig some gold when assigned to a base.
Mau’s work suitability and team support are not much to discuss about. If you want to get this cat-like pal for farming money, the only places to go are Dungeons in Palworld.9. Vanwyrm Cryst
HP Attack Defense
90 120 95
Work Suitability: Cooling Lv2, Transporting Lv3.
Vanwyrm Cryst is an Ice and Dark-type pal that can be obtained by breeding Vanwyrm with Foxcicle. This bird-like pal may not be as powerful as the likes of Shadowbeak and Blazehowl Noct, but it is still a worthy choice because of its partner skill. This skill allows you to use Vanwyrm Cryst as a flying companion and enhances the damage you deal to the enemy’s weak points.
This pal is also great at doing your camp work, providing services like cooling your items or transporting your resources from one place to the other.8. Menasting
HP Attack Defense
100 100 130
Work Suitability: Mining Lv3, Lumbering Lv2.
Menasting has one of the highest Defense stats among Dark-type pals, even rivaling with those of the top three in our list. Its Dark and Ground elements, along with the Steel Scorpion partner skill, take the defensive game to the next level.
So, if you are a player who likes to tease tough bosses by wasting their attacks and then repaying them with surprising counters, Menasting is your ultimate answer.
This pal also does above-average base work, whether you need it for getting wood or want its help to farm ore in Palworld.
