Palworldis full of things to explore and secrets waiting to be found. Mineshafts, hidden behind waterfalls and in hard to find areas, are just one of them. Inside there are Pals, Black Marketeers and other useful items. Here’s where to find them all and what’s inside.
If you’re going to go looking for these Mineshafts,you should go well equipped; take element resistant armors, stock up on ammunition and strong pals, because some of them are home to some very powerful Alpha Pals that will wipe the floor with you if you proceed unprepared. Trust me, I’ve fallen victim to this a few times.
However, one added perk for a few, but not all, of the fights is the possibility that their Alpha Pals will dropLegendary Schematics.
Alpha Pal Mineshafts
Shoal Mineshaft
The closest Mineshaft to the starting location is theShoal Mineshaft at -144, -445. Inside you’ll find alevel 30 Alpha Broncherry Aqua.
To find this Mineshaft, fast travel to theSealed Realm of the Swordmasterand head North-West.
Falls Mineshaft
Falls Mineshaft can be found at-249, 434. Inside this Mineshaft, you’ll find alevel 25 Alpha Fenglope. Arguably the hardest to find of all the Mineshafts, this one is hidden behind a waterfall, as the name suggests.
To find it, travel to theAscetic Fallsfast travel point and head North-West.
Devout’s Mineshaft
Located at32, -183, Devout’s Mineshaft is home to alevel 31 Alpha Elizabeeand her cohort of Beegardes. As long as you can avoid the kamikazee style explosive attacks of her Guard, you shouldn’t have too much trouble defeating this Pal.
The easiest way to get to this mineshaft is by travelling to theLake Centerfast travel point and heading North, dropping down to the river in the East.
Alpha Elizabee could possibly drop the Schematic forLegendary Metal Armor, so this is a good fight to take on at mid-level.
Desiccated Mineshaft
We’re heading to the North-East desert biome now, soprepare yourself with both Heat Resistant and Cold Resistant armors(for day time and night time respectively) before searching for the Desiccated Mineshaft at493, 81.
Inside, you’ll battle alevel 44 Alpha Menastingwho can be tricky, but bring some Water element Pals and this shouldn’t be too hard.
The quickest way to get here is by travelling to theEastern Wild Islandfast travel point and heading north over the water, but you’ll need either a flying or swimming mount. Alternatively, head toSand Dunes Entranceand travel Eastwards, but this will take considerably longer.
You could possibly get the Schematic for Legendary Refined Metal Helm out of this fight, so it’s not without reward.
The Furthest Mineshaft
The name of this one doesn’t lie, it’s the furthest from the Plateau of Beginnings and feels the furthest away from the nearest fast travel point as well. Located at349, 563, The Furthest Mineshaft is home to alevel 47 Alpha Dinossom Lux,so tread carefully.
To get here, travel to theDeep Sand Dunesfast travel point and head West. You’ll find the entrance to the Mineshaft at ground level on the Northern side of the rocky outcrop.
Forgotten Mineshaft
Heading north to the frozen realm of Astral Mountains now, soyou’ll need to bring some Cold Resistant armorif you’re wanting to find this Mineshaft at-254, 478. Inside, you’ll find alevel 43 Alpha Ice Kingpaca, so verify to bring some Fire element Pals to fight with you.
The fastest way to get here is to fast travel to theLand of Absolute Zeroand head South-West towards the giant skeletal carcass below. The entrance to the Forgotten Mineshaft is on the Western side of the mountain.
Iceberg Mineshaft
Still in the Astral Mountains, Iceberg Mineshaft is further south at-142, 321. Inside, you’ll find alevel 49 Lyleen Noct, so prepare for a challenging battle.
The closest fast travel point for this Mineshaft isUnthawable Lake. From here, head North-West across the lake itself and you’ll find the entrance to Iceberg Mineshaft up in the cliff’s edge.
Alpha Lyleen Noct could possibly drop the Schematic for theLegendary Cold Resistant Refined Metal Armor, so this is one fight you should definitely seek out.
Destroyed Mineshaft
We only have one place left to go, so it’s off to the volcanic biome of Mount Obsidian.Remember to don some Heat Resistant Armor to withstand the heat.
The Destroyed Mineshaft is home to thelevel 48 Alpha Astegonand the entrance can be found at-569, -416.
The easiest way to get here is by fast traveling to Mount Obsidian Midpoint and heading directly West. The entrance doesn’t stand out as much as those we’ve seen previously, but as soon as you get close the title screen for the Mineshaft will let you know you’ve arrived.
One of the reasons for fighting Astegon is the fact that he drops the Schematic for theLegendary Heat Resistant Refined Metal Armor.
Scorching Mineshaft
The final Mineshaft which houses an Alpha pal is the Scorching Mineshaft, located at-436, -529. Inside, you’ll find alevel 49 Alpha Blazamutso go prepared with plenty of high level Water element Pals.
Alpha Blazamut also drops the Schematic for theLegendary Assault Rifleso this challenge is worth taking on as long as you’re prepared.
To get here, head to theAncient Civilzation Ruinsfast travel point and head North-West.
Black Marketeer Mineshafts
The following two Mineshafts don’t have Pals in them but instead play host to something that’s arguably better — Black Marketeers. Creepily, they’re surrounded by guillotines and wooden boxes. I don’t want to think about what they do with the Pals I sell them…
I can’t tell you what they sell, because it changes each time you visit, so you’ll just have to check in with them periodically to try and score some missing Pals for your Deck.
Cove Mineshaft
The easiest way to get here is by travelling to theSealed Realm of the Winged Tyrantand jump (or glide, if you want to play it safe) off the cliff to the West. The entrance to the Mineshaft is at the bottom of the ravine at-282, -161.
Abandoned Mineshaft
This Mineshaft is located at33, -411. To get here, head to theDesolate Churchfast travel point and travel West. The entrance to the Mineshaft is at the base of the rocky overhang and there’s aJournal Entrysitting outside, to boot.
