Calculators

Tools and calculators for Palworld mechanics and optimization.

Last updated: 2026-01-27

These calculators help you make better decisions without memorizing formulas or guessing how mechanics interact.

They are designed as decision helpers, not exact probability simulators.

Available calculators

Capture Chance Helper

Estimate whether a capture attempt is worth trying and what to improve before throwing.

  • Factors considered: HP %, status effects, sphere tier, target difficulty
  • Best used together with the explanation guide

Work Speed Estimator

Compare uptime, task switching, and raw Work Speed bonuses to see what actually improves base productivity.

  • Helps explain why layout and roles matter more than stats
  • Useful when optimizing mid- to late-game bases

Planned calculators

These are on the roadmap:

  • Breeding planner (clean-line probability helper)
  • Damage comparison tool (safe vs burst builds)
  • Base throughput estimator (roles + pathing + transport)

How to use these tools effectively

Calculators work best when combined with the guides:

The goal is not perfect numbers — it’s predictable results.
