Quite a few types of base equipment and tools are at your disposal for keeping warm.
All fire sourcesprovide warmth.
When you first enter Palworld, you will need to have made at least a campfire or torch to protect you from the nighttime cold. Luckily, both the torch and campfire are early-game recipes and can be unlocked shortly after entering the game.
Here is the list of Technology items that you can craft to keep you warm in Palworld’s wilds.
Electric Heater
While theHeater and Campfireprovide thesame amount of heatfor your character, the Heater isworth the extra materialrequirements because Pals and people who pass over itwill not catch on fire.
It’s Colder At Night
Similar to the way traveling at night in the Desert can save you from overheating, traveling through theTundra in the daytimeis slightlywarmer than traveling at night.
Nighttime temperaturesin the Tundra willexpedite the death-by-cold-weather effect, but you will still experience the’freezing’debuff during thedaytime.
While traveling through the Tundra during the daywill not save you from freezing, it willbuy you some timeto get to a warmer location or to build warming equipment and clothes.
Having aFire Element Pal at your sidein the daytime Tundrawill save you from freezingto death, but you muststay beside that Pal, and you must at least have a torch handy or be wearing theTundra Outfit.
Final Tips For Staying Warm In Palworld
Building a shelterof some kind - even temporary - can be the difference between being mildly chilly andfreezing to death.
Additionally, you can placeWall Torches, Mounted Torches, and Fireplacesin your house toadd to the warming effectyou experience whenindoors.
Your shelter does not have to be fancy, but even just creating aone-block structurewhileon the gocan be the difference between survival and a frozen grave.
Don’t worry about cluttering the landscape with your makeshift shelters as you travel. As time goes on,structures decay, and theydecay more quicklywhen not protected by aPal Box’s range.
It is worth it tospend the extra materialsbuilding shelters just to stay warm. Eventually, those hastily built lean-tos willsuccumb to the elements,but you will live to adventure another day.
Shelters only work if they arecomplete with a roof. Really, all you need arethree walls and a roof,but if youdon’t have a roof,then the shelter is consideredincomplete, and youwon’t get any bonusesfrom it.
