Alpha Pals
Pals
Alpha Pals are Pals that are larger and stronger than their regular counterparts and drop valuable items when defeated. They can be found all over the Palpagos Islands, being visible on the world map or spawning at the end of Dungeons.
Overview
Alpha Pals appear the same as their standard versions, save for being a good deal larger. In addition to their increased size, they also have more Health than their smaller kin, making them tougher to defeat. They also give far more XP when defeated, making taking them down a good choice for players looking to level up quickly.
Some Alpha Pals can be encountered in the overworld as world bosses. Overworld Alpha Pals either appear in their own scripted locations on the map or in special areas called Sealed Realms that can be entered to battle the Alpha Pal in question. Each overworld Alpha Pal always respawns every in-game day after being defeated. The ones in Sealed Realms will respawn after 1 hour with a shown timer in the entrance, though this can be fast-forwarded by sleeping.
However, it should be noted that not every Pal has an Alpha version that appears in the overworld. The Alpha versions of these Pals (such as Lamball or Foxparks) appear randomly as a boss at the end of Dungeons.
Alpha Pals also have a 5% chance to hatch from Pal Eggs.
Differences Between Alpha Pals and Regular Pals
Alpha Pals have a few differences compared to regular Pals:
- When defeated, they give 10 times more XP than their regular variant would give.
- The damage they receive is multiplied by a factor from 0.2 to 0.4 (depending on the specific Alpha Pal). This makes them last longer in combat.
- Their capture rates are different, usually lower than the regular Pal. In most cases, the multiplier factor is 0.7 or 0.77.
- Alpha Pals drop more items than their regular variants. See the Possible Drops section below.
- Alpha Pals have a higher value when sold to a Pal Merchant than their regular variants.
In addition, when an Alpha Pal is caught, the Alpha Pals icon is displayed next to its name in most interfaces.
Possible Drops
In addition to their regular item drops, Alpha Pals will always drop Ancient Civilization Parts when defeated. They'll also drop items to be sold like Precious Pelt or Precious Dragon Stone.
Certain Alpha Pals have a small chance to drop legendary-tier Schematic. For example, the Alpha Beakon world boss has a 3% chance to drop the Handgun Schematic 4 when defeated. This makes hunting Alpha Pals a good choice for players looking for the best gear.
When an Alpha Pal on the world map is defeated or caught for the first time, they provide the player with Ancient Technology Points. They will also drop a Pal Bounty Token, which gives bonuses to the player's Pals

Notes
- Prior to version 0.2.4.0, Alpha Pals did not have higher stats (HP, Attack, Defense, etc) than regular Pals. Now Alpha Pals have a higher HP stat than regular pals.
- The Alpha icon will appear on overworld Pals that have a large level difference with the player. This icon will not render them Alphas, and will disappear when the player reaches a high enough level in comparison to the Pal, indicating the icon is a metric of Threat assessment, rather than a status of a Pal itself.
- This also applies to Humans.
- When fighting overworld Alpha Pals, it's advised not to stray too far away from their primary spot, as the Alpha might just retreat back to its spot in the middle of battle and recover all of its HP upon reaching it.
- All Legendary Pals that spawn in the overworld spawn as Alpha Pals.
- Capturing and butchering Alpha Pals can be used as a method to obtain legendary-tier Schematics much faster, since the Alpha Pal will drop items when captured and then drop the same pool of items again after being butchered, essentially giving two chances of obtaining the Schematic in question.
- Due to their increased size, Alpha Pals can be quite troublesome when assigned to work at a Base or used in tight areas like Dungeons, especially if the Pal in question is already large like Jormuntide or Astegon.
