How to Defend Your Pal Base In Palworld

We all know that Palworld is a game of adventure where you get beckoned, teemed with opportunity, and many more. During gameplay, you have tamed your loyal Pal companions who are somewhere building a base and unearthed a significant resource. But besides that, did you ever think about how dangerous it could be? Yes, you heard right. Palworld holds plenty of threats that can turn your gameplay from a level up to a downward graph.

When you observe the game, you will find that Palworld invites a plethora of in-game threats that could potentially breach your defence, and from so on, Vigilance seems an important thing. But being a beginner and sometimes an intermediate, they find it difficult to defend their base. For this, I tried to observe their common mistakes. Resulting in the fact that here I am sharing complete knowledge of defending bases in Palworld.

What are the threats faced in Palworld? 

When you play Palworld, you will find that threats in Palworld come in two different flavours. Either through the ecosystem or through players’ causes. To be specific, Palworld’s ecosystem can turn hostile in an instant. It means sandstorms wipe across the dunes, burying structures and disorienting people. However, in this situation, some calm plains can turn into flash floods, which means threatening your crops and perimeter walls as well.

On the other hand, Palworld offers a haven for aspiring wardens. For this, do note that all hostile players seeking resources may target your base. So, you need a well-defended base, which is necessary here. Another thing is location. Choose the correct base that goes beyond aesthetics. You need to consider local wildlife and similarly provide additional defences on flood-prone plains. So, these are some types of threats that a typical Palworld player needs to encounter.

What should be the Core Base Design Principles?

Instead of reacting, if you consider some principles required for base design, you can get much relief from threats. So, if somewhere you are planning to set up your base, consider the below-mentioned principles to get ahead of potential threats. So here are those must-know principles.

• Location: This seems like the backbone of choosing a potential base design. Because location plays a significant role, these offer a tactical benefit and reduce the perimeter needed to defend. Meanwhile, building the base near plentiful stone deposits ensures a steady supply of robust walls. So, avoid Pal hotspots and go near a resource-friendly location to reduce your threats as much as possible.
• Walls: Another key factor that has different views based on area. Different wall types provide varying degrees of protection. Stone walls are the best starting point, but for a formidable defence, consider advanced materials such as steel. Also, get layered walls with an outer layer absorbing the attack and an inner layer protecting the core structure. It provides such an extra layer of security.
• Gate Control: Your base’s entry point should be in a controlled area. I mean, do not settle for flimsy wooden doors. For this, invest in metal gates for maximum security possible. Also, ensure airlocks and double gate entry points with an enclosed space between them to provide an additional layer of protection against threats.

Some basic defence techniques

In Palworld, you have a clear view of defending your base. You can either use defence structures or even train your loyal Pals to defend your base. Do not worry, this is just an overview; below is the complete explanation of each technique.

• Placing guard towers: Use the guard towers that are taken control of by the most loyal pals so that they provide a complete loop at each point. Such a structure provides a wider view of the surrounding area, allowing your loyal pals to spot threats before they become a major concern. So, consider placing such towers as extensions of your base’s perimeter to provide early warning of any issue.
• Turrets for advanced armour: Turrets are automated defences that come in various forms. Each type of defence has its strengths and opportunities. For them to have an additional layer of security, being a Palworld player, you need to have a wise turret placement. For this, consider focusing on choke points and using them to cover blind spots in your defence.
• Training and Equipping Pals: If you consider this technique, then you will find that, including for base defence, such a technique helps you in unusual ways. All you need to do is invest time in training your pals for combat. Strongly trained pals can deter attackers and defend your base. Additionally, equip them with additional gear to wipe out all the threats to your base.

Conclusion

Sum up, I am sure that by using these principles, you’ll change your base from a fledgling outpost into an impregnable fortress. Do not forget that Palworld’s dangers are diverse, so adapt your defences based on your location and playstyle. Also, continuous improvement and resource management are important to a warden’s success. So, do not delay; get into Palworld and prepare yourself to defend your base.
