In Palworld 1.0, wood is a fundamental resource required for almost every construction task, from initial base setup to late-game crafting. To keep your base self-sufficient, you need to assign the right Pals to lumbering duties.
Top-Tier Lumbering Pals
If you are looking for the absolute highest efficiency, Celesdir and Celesdir Noct are your best options. Both Pals start at level seven in lumbering, which can be further improved with the use of books to reach the maximum potential for wood production.
- Celesdir: Can be found across Feybreak Island. It is the easiest of the two to obtain.
- Celesdir Noct: A boss variant located within the World Tree.
Specialized and Multi-Discipline Workers
Depending on your base's needs, you might prefer a Pal that specializes in a single task or one that provides utility across multiple work types:
- Best Focused Worker: Eikthyrdeer is ideal if you want a Pal dedicated solely to lumbering. While its lumbering skill is level two, its lack of other work suitabilities ensures it won't be distracted by other tasks.
- Best Multi-Discipline Worker: Wumpo is highly effective for busy bases. They manage lumbering alongside transporting, handiwork, and cooling, making them a versatile addition to your workforce.
Early-Game Strategy
For those just starting out, Lifmunk is the most practical choice. While they only feature a level one lumbering skill, they are commonly found in the starting areas of the game. Because they are easy to catch in large numbers, you can assign multiple Lifmunks to your base to speed up your wood collection process significantly.
