Have you found yourself catching a bunch of the same Pal in Palworld, with no use for the extra ones that you've caught? Luckily, there's something you can do with this, and it involves the Pal Distillation Pod, also known as the Pal Essence Condenser.
This item can be incredibly useful and allow you to increase the rank of your Pals significantly. You'll also be able to prevent your Palbox from overflowing with extra Pals of the same species and leave space for new Pals. If you're looking to add this structure to your base, here's how you can unlock it.
Palworld: How to Find and Catch Fuddler
Fuddler is a ground-type Pal that can make Palworld players feel more comfortable against Electric pals, as well as mine resources back at the base.
How to Get Pal Distillation Pod in Palworld
To unlock the Pal Distillation Pod (Pal Essence Container), you'll need to first get some Ancient Technology Points. These become available after Level 7, and they can usually be obtained from Bosses. The best boss to take on first is Zoe and Grizzbolt, who can be found northwest of the Plateau of Beginnings in the Tower of the Rayne Syndicate, shown in the second image above.
Eventually, once you reach Level 14, you'll find the Pal Essence Container on the right-hand side under the purple column. You'll need one Ancient Technology Point to unlock it. When you've unlocked it, open up your Build Wheel and scroll to the 'Pal' section. You'll be able to build the Pal Essence Container from here with these ingredients:
- 20x Paldium Fragments
- 20x Ingots
- 5x Ancient Civilization Parts
Paldium Fragments are relatively easy to find, and you can use our guide to find them. Ingots can be made with a Furnace using Ore. You can get Ancient Civilization Parts from Bosses, just like Ancient Technology Points. This includes the bosses that are outside and not in a tower, such as the Level 11 Chillet near the Fort Ruins. It is also possible to come across them in chests.
How to Use Pal Distillation Pod in Palworld
Pal Essence Containers are a great way to take some Pals that you have multiple copies of and bring them together to increase the rank of one Pal. They can have 4 rank increases, with a different number of Pals being required for each level:
- Rank 1: 8 Same-Species Pals
- Rank 2: 16 Pals
- Rank 3: 32 Pals
- Rank 4: 64 Pals
To use the Pal Essence Container, open it up and choose the Base Pal that will be leveled up. Then, you'll want to choose all the Pals of the same species that you are okay with letting go of, and they will be distilled. Then, you'll have successfully ranked up your Pal.
