Equipment is your best friend while exploring and farming for resources in Palworld. These items are unlocked early in the game and play a crucial role in your advancement in Palpagos Island.

Items like Pickaxe and Axe are important to ensure fast and efficient farming of resources, while the Bows and Armor are a must to protect yourself from the Cold and Pal attacks. However, all these items will decay over time as you keep using them; thus, you will need to repair them.

Palworld: How to Cook

If you want to learn how to deal with hunger, here's everything you need to know about cooking in Palworld.

How to Get a Repair Bench

Crafting new items once they are broken can be challenging and will waste a lot of valuable resources. Fortunately, Palworld allows you to repair broken items and make them like new ones. Although repairing items is not free and will require resources to be spent, they are much less in quantity than crafting a new one.

To repair items in Palworld, you must get the Repair Bench first. You will unlock the Repair Bench after you have reached Technology Level 2. Unlocking the Repair Bench requires 1 Technology Point, and crafting requires 10 Woods and 10 Stones.

Once you have gathered these resources, go to your Build menu by pressing B on your keyboard. Then go to the Production section and choose the Repair Bench. Place the bench on your base, and then build it by yourself or with the help of your pals.

How to Repair Items

After crafting the Repair Bench, stand near it and press F to use the bench. A menu on your screen will show all the items in your inventory and their health and condition. You can choose whichever item you want to repair from that list. Broken items will have a red repair sign over their picture. Restoring an item will be half the cost of its production. Once you have selected the item you want to repair, click the Repair button on the right window of the menu.

It is also important to remember that your pals won't help you repair items; you will have to do it on your own. So don’t leave the items on the Repair Bench, hoping the pals will take care of them. We highly recommend you repair items before you head off for farming or exploring to avoid any unfortunate events due to broken items.

How to Repair Structures

Besides items, you can also repair items like ranches, cooking campfires, and other such items. However, the process is slightly different from repairing items on a bench. You must craft the Repair Kit from your workbench to repair structures. The Repair Kit will unlock at Technology Level 3, requiring 5 Fibre and 5 Stones to be crafted.

Once you have crafted a Repair Kit and have it on your base, stand in front of the structure you want to repair and then press '4' on your keyboard to repair the structure. One repair kit will be used to repair a structure. Thus, you will need to craft multiple Repair Kits to repair multiple structures on your base.
