Out of the Pals listed above, theNecromusis objectively the best Dark Pal in Palworld. This is due to their powerfulDark Laserability that can jettison out 150 attack damage apiece. Also, theirTwin Spearsattack that has an attack power of 120 and their Partner Skill allows players to mount them and perform a double jump, an absolute luxury in a game as large as Palworld.

The only issue is, you’re likely to encounter the Necromus fairly late in the game, perhaps around levels 45-50. As such, we think theFelbatis a must-have and a serious runner-up for the best Dark Pal position.

The Felbat’s high-level powers emit the same damage values as the Necromus and additionally, their Partner SkillLife Steal, essentially allows players to convert incoming damage into HP. Furthermore, the Felbat is much easier to obtain and can often be found withindungeons across the Palword Map.

If you’re earlier in your playthrough, theIncineramis capable of some nice damage output and is substantially easier to acquire. They are also a Fire-type which means they are additionally strong against Grass and Ice-types. Whilst this is a nice perk, they will only unlock their Dark ability at level 30 so you should bear that in mind when gathering a team of Dark Pals.
