The best Palworld 1.0 base locations for early game builds, resource-rich farms, or raid safe havens
PC Gamer has published a comprehensive guide to optimal base locations in Palworld 1.0, compiled after extensive scouting across the game’s maps. The guide provides recommendations for establishing player bases on the Palpagos islands and the newly available World Tree map, categorizing locations by strategic purpose and playstyle.
The recommendations address different player priorities: locations optimized for early-game progression and quick resource gathering, resource-rich farm areas for sustained material production, and raid-safe havens designed for endgame content and defensive positioning against other players.
Among the recommended early-game locations is the Sunlit Isle, identified as one of the optimal starting positions for new base establishment. The guide acknowledges that it remains a work in progress, with the author planning to add and refine recommendations as they continue exploring the Palpagos islands and newly introduced World Tree map content.
The guide actively encourages community participation, inviting players to share their own base location discoveries and strategic recommendations in the comments section, with the potential for promising suggestions to be incorporated into future updates.
