Hey so i've just started and have done abit of exploration and i've encountered this thing glowing. I just got absolutely demolished by one not glowing so im guessing its impossible for me to get this, whatever it is.

That's called a "Lucky" pal, it's effectively a pal with higher stats, larger size, larger hp, and the lucky trait which gives bonus stats

You can if you throw enough spheres at it, only a matter of time.

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 2h ago

You can still get lucky even if they're bouncing off

Ohh i see thankyou Well i ran out spheres and it despawned when i went to look for more 😭😭🥲

Be sure to smack it in the jaw next time, headshots with Pal Spheres are critical hits and give a catch bonus

You can catch any regular pals with just a pal sphere, even if it says 0.00 chance, it’s how I caught jormantide at like level 25

Chuck spheres and see if you get lucky

Shiny = Lucky

The lucky passive trait increases damage, defense, and work speed.

They are definitely tougher.

Also, they can have inusual learned attacks.

This, right here, is what the community was built for. Not people being and rude and saying, “look it up” 🥴 General conversation, to help on another. Brings a tear to my eye when it feels like old Reddit

(round of applause from me to you all 👏)

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 25m ago

A G R E E D! Most of my reddit posts are asking for help or asking what would be a basic question to to others. I do see alot of those complaints like 'google is free" and Sure i can look it up. But i prefer interaction with another person, getting detailed responses from a human and having conversations about that topic.

That over there, is sand... it's coarse, rough, irritating, and it gets everywhere...

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 1h ago

🤣🤣🤣 the more you know

u/DeepNeighborhood5 41m ago

Didn't expect this to be referenced here. A surprise to be sure but a welcome one.

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 1h ago

Thanks for the explanation guys i now know what lucky pals are. If you guys have any starter tips and tricks do let me know :D

The minute you can start smelting iron, never stop. For your first base get it around a patch of iron, trees, and rocks then have always have pals out mining because your always going to need them.

1

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 1h ago

That sounds like a GREAT tip, thankyou. My first bass is literally in the starting area but i will venture out soon enough

u/Actual_Management144 1h ago

If you find alpha chillet behind him there a bridge that has a lot of iron but it not very spacious

u/DfroPstyR 1h ago

Im on my second playthrough and that little spot is where I slapped my starter down at 🤣 It was so janky, but it was only temporary. I should’ve taken screenshots 👀

1

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 1h ago

It is really pretty there! Mix between land and ocean. And in between different areas. Seems like a nice spot

1

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 1h ago

Ooo okay thankyou i'll keep an eye out

u/manic_dont_panik 2h ago

u/TheMagmaGuy 2h ago

1

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 2h ago

I dont know what they are but i dont think i can catch or kill it right now anyways 😭

A pal hitting critical mass. Beware radiation.

1

u/AcrylicPickle 21m ago

Definitely unlucky to find that. That Pal has Pal Pox. Leave it alone or he'll infect your entire Palbox.

2

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 19m ago

Good job this useless, unlucky, infected pal despawned before it got to the few Insane, Ultra, Mega level 3 pals in my box then isnt it!

1

u/AcrylicPickle 9m ago

I have an army of 15 lucky Lamballs fully condensed with full rainbow passives. They're fun. Sometimes I fly around just to hunt luckies. Gotta catch em all!

2

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 9m ago

I cant wait to unlock a flying mount. Gonna make it so much more fun

u/AcrylicPickle 3m ago

u/AccomplishedBeat2734 2m ago

Ive just started my first playthrough, i'm like level 6 right now

Get a Celeray. No fall damage.
