Don’t worry if you can’t find some passive skills in this table. A few of these skills areexclusive to only one Pal. The “Lord of Lightning” Passive Skill, for instance, can only be acquired if you capture a wildOrserk. Similarly, the “Spirit Emperor” and “Flame Emperor” can be acquired bycapturing a wild LyleenandBlazamut, respectively.
Given the fact thatPalworldis in Early Access, it’s very likely that the developers can add more Passive Skills via updates and patches. If more Passive Skills are implemented into the game, this guide will receive an update.
