All "best for" guides

Best Palworld Pals for Gathering

Harvesting berries, eggs, and wool from ranch resources. Ranked by in-game suitability level (1–4), with base attack as the tiebreaker. 80 pals have non-zero Gathering suitability in the current dataset.

How this ranking works

Suitability level is the in-game stat that determines how much work output a pal contributes to a given job. A Lv. 4 worker out-produces a Lv. 1 worker at the same job regardless of Work Speed bonuses. For the math behind why, see Work Speed Explained.

Pair gathering workers with the right passives

Suitability gates the job; passives multiply the output. The Workhorse template — Artisan (+50% Work Speed), Lucky (+15%), Workaholic (SAN drops 15% slower), and Diet Lover (Hunger drops 15% slower) — is the standard infinite-worker build for any of the pals above.
