Just like any monster-taming game, and any RPG for that matter, Dragons are mystical, rare, and powerful creatures in Palworld Walkthrough. The game has several creatures, ranging from derpy to badass, and that’s only one of the reasons why it got so viral. Luckily, Dragons within the game also come in all shapes and sizes.
Each element in Palworld is strong against one element and weak against another, barring Fire and Neutral. Thus, Dragon does not have an implicit power in itself as an element. However, the Pals that possess the Dragon element are so extremely strong that it elevates the element as a whole.
Orserk is quite likely the best Electric Pal you can get your hands on in the whole game. This thing has an amazing element combination in Dragon/Electric and has incredible ranged damage potential. The fact that it’s Electric is amazing to begin with, as it shuts down Water Pals which might become an issue for Fire Pals, the strongest element in the game.
Dragon Element Pals have an Offensive advantage over Dark Type Pals dealing 2x damage to them, but their damage will be halved when fighting against Ice Type Pals. Defensively, they are resistance to Dark types, but will receive 2x damage from Dragon Type Pals.
Fire Element Pals have an Offensive advantage over Grass and Ice Type Pals dealing 2x damage to them, but their damage will be halved when fighting against Water Type Pals. Defensively, they are resistance to Grass and Ice types, but will receive 2x damage from Water Type Pals.
Neutral pals have no offensive advantages over any other pal types. They are the only pal type that has no offensive advantage. Defensively, they are weak against Dark type pals and will receive 2x damage from them. They are not resistant to any type of pal.
Grass Element Pals have an Offensive advantage over Ground Type Pals dealing 2x damage to them, but their damage will be halved when fighting against Fire Type Pals. Defensively, they are resistance to Ground types, but will receive 2x damage from Fire Type Pals.
Chillet isn’t even that strong in a vacuum, having decent at best stats in both offense and defense. Luckily, its Partner Skill is also great, applying Dragon damage to the player’s attacks while mounted. Chillet is the definition of how a great skill and element combination can lift up a mediocre Pal, turning it into an absolute powerhouse.
There are many Pals in Palworld that have the Gathering Work Suitability. Unlike the Cooling ability , gathering is not tied to a specific type of pal – any type has the potential to have gathering. Each pal with gathering can have a level between 1 and 4 for their Gathering ability. The higher the number, the faster they will be at completing the Gathering task. This Best Gathering Pal Tier List shows each teir of Gathering currently available in Palworld.
Orserk’s Partner Skill, Ferocious Thunder Dragon sounds cool but is very rarely useful. Despite that though, this majestic beast manages to be amazing purely due to its damage output. So much so that there are only a couple of Dragon Pals better than it. Speaking of…
Chillet is a unique case and proves that the element match-ups are crucial in mastering the game. This adorable serpent is Dragon/Ice, and that alone is enough to make it one of the best Pals in the game in certain situations. Thanks to its Ice element, Chillet can take down other Dragons with ease, and that’s incredibly valuable.
Jetragon can be ridden as a flying mount, and it’s by far the fastest one you can get. Its Partner Skill Aerial Missile makes Jetragon Rapidly fire a missile launcher. The result is a very speedy mount that can rain destruction from high over your enemies. Jetragon is the best Dragon Pal you can get, due to how versatile, helpful, and destructive it is all at the same time.
While its Partner Skill is lacking, as it only increases damage done to ore, its element combination is pretty much perfect. Dark hits Neutral effectively and is weak against Dragon, whereas Dragon hits Dark effectively and is weak against Ice. This means that Astegon is the perfect counter to Dark and Neutral Pals , which basically covers a majority of randomly spawned Pals in the overworld.
It appears that a decent Pal kept back due to its element being on better Pals, gets a lot better when you change its element to something rarer. Dragon/Electric is a great offensive element combo, and while there are still better Pals of the same element, Relaxaurus Lux ends up being better than its regular counterpart in most cases.
Throughout this list, we’ve mentioned a few times how Fire is the best element, and how being able to counter it is a huge boon for any Pal. Well, it then tracks that having the Fire element is even better. Jormuntide Ignis is the Dragon/Fire alternate version of Jormuntide, and it is so, so powerful.
Quivern’s Partner Skill also enhances Dragon attacks while mounted, meaning it will hit a lot harder with you on top of it. It gets amazing coverage, learning Skills from four different elements in total, which is extremely rare in Palworld. Quivern might not be game-breaking like some other Pals on this list, but it’s an absolute powerhouse nonetheless.
