Best Passive Skills
Base (work) passives
| Skill | Rating | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Artisan | ★★★★★ | Work Speed +50% |
| Work Slave | ★★★★☆ | Work Speed +30%, Ranged Attack -30% |
| Insomnia | ★★★★☆ | Nocturnal |
| Serious | ★★★☆☆ | Work Speed +20% |
| Workaholic | ★★★☆☆ | Sanity Drain -15% |
For base Pals, prioritize work-speed passives like Artisan, or Nocturnal so they keep working at night. For naturally nocturnal Pals, ease SAN loss with passives like Workaholic.
Ranch passives
| Skill | Effect |
|---|---|
| Workaholic | Sanity Drain -15% |
| Diet Lover | Hunger Drain -15% |
| Positive Thinker | Sanity Drain -10% |
| Dainty Eater | Hunger Drain -10% |
For ranch Pals, work-speed passives don't improve output. Prefer passives that slow SAN and hunger loss instead.
Party (held) passives
| Skill | Rating | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Vanguard | ★★★★★ | Player: Ranged Attack +10% |
| Stronghold Strategist | ★★★★★ | Player: Defense +10% |
| Noble | ★★★★☆ | Sell Price +5%, Buy Price -5% |
| Motivational Leader | ★★★★☆ | Player: Work Speed +25% |
| Logging Foreman | ★★☆☆☆ | Player: Logging +25% |
| Mine Foreman | ★★☆☆☆ | Player: Mining +25% |
For party Pals, passives that buff the player (like Vanguard) are best. They trigger just by being in your party and stack across multiple Pals, so teach them to Pals you don't use in combat.
Mount (ride) passives
| Skill | Rating | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Swift | ★★★★★ | Move Speed +30% |
| Runner | ★★★★☆ | Move Speed +20% |
| Legend | ★★★★☆ | Ranged Attack +20%, Defense +20%, Move Speed +20% |
| Nimble | ★★★☆☆ | Move Speed +10% |
| Infinite Stamina | ★☆☆☆☆ | Pal SP +50% |
For mounts, movement-speed passives like Swift and Legend shine; filling all 4 slots with speed makes riding exploration smooth. Note: Pals that can glide don't benefit from movement-speed passives, so use combat or player-buff passives for them instead.
Combat passives
| Skill | Rating | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Legend | ★★★★★ | Ranged Attack +20%, Defense +20%, Move Speed +20% |
| Musclehead | ★★★★★ | Ranged Attack +30%, Work Speed -50% |
| Serenity | ★★★★★ | Skill Cooldown +30%, Ranged Attack +10% |
| 各属性攻撃強化 | ★★★★☆ | +20% damage of the matching element |

| Lucky | ★☆☆☆☆ | Ranged Attack +15%, Defense +15%, Work Speed +20% |
| Hooligan | ★☆☆☆☆ | Ranged Attack +15%, Work Speed -10% |
For combat Pals, Legend is the staple—it raises attack, defense, and movement speed, so it's a must-have.
