Similar Pals
Paladius guide
Paladius is a Neutral-type Legendary Pal — the radiant counterpart to Necromus, and a defensively-tuned combat mount with the highest defense of the centaur duo. Like its twin, it spawns as part of a punishing two-alpha fight in the desert.
Where to find Paladius
Paladius spawns alongside Necromus as an alpha boss in the northern Dessicated Desert, near the Deep Sand Dunes fast-travel point. Attack either one during the day and both engage you together — a tough two-on-one.
Paladius is a Neutral type, so it's weak to Dark — bring your strongest Dark attackers. Unlike Necromus, Paladius sleeps at night, so if you specifically want Paladius, fight during the day (accepting the duo) or wake it; if you want to isolate Necromus, fight at night. Bring temperature-resistant gear either way.
Holy Knight of the Firmament
Paladius can be ridden and can triple-jump while mounted — even more aerial mobility than Necromus. Its Holy Knight of the Firmament partner skill activates Spear Thrust, keeping Necromus at your side to attack enemies in tandem once you own both.
With 145 defense it's the tankiest of the duo, and it shares the Lumbering 6 / Mining 6 base work. It's also breedable if you'd rather not grind the twin alpha.
Paladius — frequently asked questions
How do you get Paladius in Palworld?
Paladius is an alpha boss in the northern Dessicated Desert, near Deep Sand Dunes, spawning alongside Necromus. It sleeps at night, so to fight Paladius you'll take on the daytime duo encounter. It can also be bred.
What is Paladius weak to?
Paladius is a Neutral-type Pal, so it's weak to Dark. Bring Dark Pals like Necromus, Shadowbeak, or another strong Dark attacker.
What's the difference between Paladius and Necromus?
They're a twin duo. Paladius is Neutral with higher defense (145) and a triple jump; Necromus is Dark with higher attack (145) and a double jump. Each one's partner skill summons the other, so they're best owned as a pair.
