Hey there, Pals! Today we’re gonna talk about one of the most useful – and admittedly, one of the most emo-looking – creatures in all of Palworld: Depresso! This little gloomy guy may not look like much at first glance, but trust me, you’re going to want him on your team pretty much from the get-go. So let’s dive into what makes Depresso so dang awesome, shall we?
Who is this Depresso in Palworld?
Depresso is categorized as a Dark Element Pal, and he’s one of the 137 Pals you can recruit in the game. Despite his brooding appearance, this nocturnal homie is an absolute workhorse when it comes to helping you get your base up and running smoothly.
With skills in Handiwork, Mining, and Transporting, Depresso is like the multitool you never knew you needed. He can mine resources, craft tools and supplies, and even haul heavy loads from place to place. Basically, he’s a one-Pal powerhouse for all your early game needs!
Where Can I Find Depresso in Palworld?
Depresso’s biggest quirk is that he’s a total night owl. You’ll only be able to find this creature lurking about after the sun goes down. Lucky for us, he tends to hang around the islands where players first spawn in at the beginning of the game.
One of the best spots to search is near the Rayne Syndicate Tower close to the Plateau of Beginnings area. Just wait for nightfall, then do a sweep of that region – if Depresso is nearby, he’ll be moping around somewhere, trust me.
Since he shows up in the early zones, catching Depresso shouldn’t be too tough of a battle even for fresh-faced Palworld newbies. Just be warned that his Dark Element attacks will shred any Neutral Element Pals you might be rocking at that point.
How to breed Depresso in Palworld?
Alright, so you’ve found Depresso out in the wild and added him to your Pal squad. Nice work! But what if you want more of these little gloomsters to really kick your base operations into high gear? Well, you’re in luck, because breeding Depressos is pretty straightforward:
- Pick a pair of romantically compatible Pals. Some good combos are:
- Lifmunk + Fuack
- Sparkit + Pengullet
- Foxparks + Jolthog
- Lamball + Killamari
- Lifmunk + Tocotoco
- Teafant + Flopie (This one’s an easy route)
- Pengullet + Hangyu
- Get them in the mood! There are a few ways to do this, like feeding them special items or just letting nature take its course.
- Wait for those dark-colored eggs to appear, then incubate them babies!
- Profit! Okay, well, not actual profit, but still – fresh new Depressos for your team!
So What’s So Great About Depresso?
I’m sure you’re wondering why you should even bother with a Pal that looks like it just got off stage from performing with My Chemical Romance’s original lineup. Here’s the deal:
- Early Work Skills: Right off the bat, Depresso comes equipped with level 1 skills in Mining, Transporting, and Handiwork. Sure, they’re entry level abilities, but that’s huge for getting your base infrastructure built up fast when you’re just starting out.
- Resource Efficiency: Having a whole squad of these little worker bees means your resource gathering and crafting can happen at lightning speed compared to doing it all manually. That’s a gamechanger!
- Battle Versatility: While not an offensive powerhouse, Depresso’s Dark Element gives it an edge against Neutral types. It also learns some extra elemental moves like Sand Blast (Ground) and Ice Missile (Ice) to cover additional weaknesses.
- Crazy Movement Speed: Depresso’s partner skill “Caffeine Inoculation” lets it chug energy drinks for a speed boost. Basically, it becomes a turbo-charged hauler to zip those resources across your base!
The only real downside is that Depresso’s defenses are pretty lacking. But that mobility and utility more than makes up for it in my book!
How to Make the Most of Your Mopey Mining Squad
So you’ve got your crew of Depressos assembled – now what? Here are some tips to get the most out of your angst-ridden workers:
- Task Specialization: While they’re jacks-of-all-trades, you’ll want to specialize each Depresso for certain duties – mining, crafting, hauling, etc. That way you can optimize their skills accordingly.
- Night Shift: Obviously, your Depressos will be sleeping all day, so set them on an overnight schedule to maximize their productivity during those prime nocturnal hours.
- Caffeine Overload: Keep those energy drinks stocked! Any time you need resources rushed from point A to B, just dump a few cans down a Depresso’s gullet to activate its speed burst.
- Protective Details: Since they’re so flimsy, make sure your miners and transporters have capable bodyguards assigned to keep them safe during hazardous operations.
With a little strategy and preparation, your Depresso workforce will be an absolute gamechanger for streamlining your early/mid-game progression!
The Voice of a Generation (Of Workers)
Look, I know Depresso isn’t exactly the coolest, edgiest Pal around. But don’t let those sad sack vibes fool you – this melancholy miner is low-key one of the most invaluable teammates you can have, especially when you’re just finding your feet in the world of Palworld.
By mastering Depresso’s unique strengths and skills, you’ll be able to kick your resource operations into overdrive. And who knows? Maybe having a whole battalion of these brooding little buddies around will help you channel those big emo energy for your next Palworld karaoke night. You’re welcome in advance for that one!
