Best Planting Pals in Palworld (1.0 Tier List & Combos)
Sowing Seeds for Wheat, Berries, Tomatoes & Lettuce
Planting initiates the agricultural cycle by depositing seeds into base farm plots. High Planting speed ensures farm plots are never idle between watering and harvest phases.
Why Higher Levels Matter
Planting speed scales with work suitability level. Dedicated planters quickly seed all available farm plots before moving to secondary tasks like Gathering or Handiwork.
+1 Work Level via 4-Star Rank
Fusing duplicate Pals into your worker via the Pal Essence Condenser boosts stats. Reaching maximum 4-Star Rank permanently elevates all work suitabilities by +1 Level.

Standard Pals sleep through the entire in-game night, halving your base productivity. Pals with native Dark typing or the Nocturnal passive skill never sleep.

Frequently Asked Questions: Planting in Palworld
Which Pal is the best at Planting in Palworld?
Dandilord are the highest-tier Planting specialists in Palworld with base work level 8. When fully condensed to 4 stars in the Pal Essence Condenser, their proficiency increases to Level 9.
How does work suitability level affect speed in Palworld?
Work speed scales exponentially with each suitability level, not linearly. A Level 1 worker completes tasks at 100 base work points per second, Level 2 operates at 300 points, Level 3 at 500 points, Level 4 at 1,000 points, and Level 5 at over 3,000 work points per second.
Can you increase a Pal's Planting work suitability level?
Yes. By fusing 116 identical duplicate Pals into your worker using the Pal Essence Condenser to achieve 4-star condensation, every single work suitability on that Pal permanently increases by +1 level.
What are the best passive skills for Planting workers?
The optimal worker build consists of Artisan (+50% Work Speed), Work Slave (+30% Work Speed), Serious (+20% Work Speed), and Lucky (+15% Work Speed), providing a combined +115% Work Speed. For non-Dark Pals, swapping Lucky for Nocturnal enables continuous 24/7 working without sleeping at night.
