Palworld Legendary Pals: All 6 Locations & How to Catch

This guide tells you exactly where to find and how to catch all six legendary Pals in Palworld’s version 1.0, covering their spawn locations, recommended levels, and the best strategies for each encounter. You’ll get the precise coordinates, the gear you need, and the catching tactics that actually work.

Who Are the Six Legendary Pals?

In Palworld 1.0, the term “legendary” refers to six specific, unique Pals that have a guaranteed spawn location on the map and cannot be bred or found anywhere else. They are the game’s ultimate prizes, each with an exclusive passive skill that makes them significantly stronger than their regular counterparts. These six are:

  • Frostallion (Level 50) – Ice type, found in the snowy Astral Mountains.
  • Frostallion Noct (Level 50) – Dark/Ice type, a palette-swapped variant that spawns only at night in the same region.
  • Jetragon (Level 50) – Dragon type, found in the volcanic Mount Obsidian area.
  • Paladius (Level 50) – Neutral type, located in the desert near the Sanctuary.
  • Necromus (Level 50) – Dark type, found alongside Paladius in the same desert location.
  • Zoe & Grizzbolt (Level 50) – This is the tower boss at the Rayne Syndicate Tower, and while you can’t catch the boss itself, you can catch the Grizzbolt that appears in the open world after you defeat the tower boss.

Note: The version 1.0 update did not add new legendary Pals beyond these six; it mainly fixed bugs and added quality-of-life features. The locations and catch methods described below are the same as the early access version, but the recommended levels and gear have been adjusted for the final balance.

Exact Locations and Coordinates

Each legendary Pal spawns in a fixed spot on the map. You can open your map (default key M) and use the coordinates shown in the top-left corner of your screen to navigate. Here are the precise locations:

  • Frostallion: (-357, 508) – On the large frozen lake in the Astral Mountains, west of the Deep Sand Dunes.
  • Frostallion Noct: Same coordinates as Frostallion, but it only appears between 22:00 and 05:00 in-game time. During the day, you’ll only see the regular Frostallion.
  • Jetragon: ( -789, -321) – On a lava-filled plateau in the Mount Obsidian area, near the northeast edge of the volcano.
  • Paladius and Necromus: (450, 450) – In the desert area of the map, just south of the Sand Dunes and east of the Free Pal Alliance territory. They spawn together, one riding the other.
  • Zoe & Grizzbolt (open world): ( -158, -448) – In the grassy plains just northwest of the Rayne Syndicate Tower. This is a level 20 Grizzbolt, not the boss version, and it’s the only one of the six that isn’t level 50.

How to Prepare for Each Fight

These are level 50 fights (except the level 20 Grizzbolt), so you should be at least level 45 before attempting them. Bring a team of Pals that have a type advantage, and make sure you have the following gear:

  • Weapons: A Rocket Launcher (or at least a Legendary Assault Rifle) and a good melee weapon like a Sword.
  • Armor: The best armor you can craft, ideally the Pal Metal Armor or better. For Jetragon, bring heat-resistant armor; for Frostallion, bring cold-resistant armor.
  • Balls: Ultra Spheres (at least 20) or Legendary Spheres (at least 10). The catch rate on these Pals is extremely low, so you’ll need many attempts.
  • Consumables: High-tier healing items like Advanced Medicine, and food that boosts your attack or defense. Also bring a flying Pal to escape quickly if things go wrong.

Step-by-Step Catching Strategy

The general strategy for all six is the same: weaken them, inflict a status effect, and then throw spheres. Here’s the detailed process that works reliably:

  1. Save your game before engaging. If you fail or the Pal dies, you can reload and try again.
  2. Get the first hit by attacking from a distance with a rocket launcher or a strong Pal move. This will aggro the legendary Pal.
  3. Switch to a tanky Pal with high defense and a type advantage. Let it take the hits while you circle around.
  4. Lower the Pal’s HP to below 5%. Use your Pal’s attacks or your own weapon. Be careful not to kill it – the lower the HP, the higher the catch rate, but a dead legendary is gone forever.
  5. Inflict a status effect like Burn, Poison, or Sleep. This significantly increases the catch rate. For Frostallion, use fire moves; for Jetragon, use ice moves; for Paladius/Necromus, use dark or dragon moves.
  6. Throw Ultra or Legendary Spheres from behind the Pal if possible. The back bonus increases the catch rate.
  7. Repeat throwing spheres until it’s caught. If it breaks out, continue to keep it weakened and reapply the status effect.

For Paladius and Necromus, they spawn together. You must kill or catch one first, then deal with the other. It’s often easier to focus on one, catch it, and then do the same for the other, but be prepared for a long fight.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Many players fail to catch legendaries because of a few easily avoidable errors:

  • Using the wrong sphere type: Regular Spheres or even Giga Spheres have almost no chance of catching a level 50 legendary. Always use Ultra or Legendary Spheres.
  • Attacking with a Pal that’s too weak: If your Pal gets knocked out quickly, you’ll be left defenseless. Bring a Pal that’s at least level 45 and has a type advantage.
  • Not saving before the fight: If you accidentally kill the legendary, you’ll have to wait for it to respawn (which can take a few in-game days). Save before every attempt.
  • Fighting at the wrong time: Frostallion Noct only appears at night. If you’re at the location during the day, you’ll only see Frostallion. Check your in-game clock.
  • Ignoring the level difference: If you’re level 30, you will deal minimal damage and take massive damage. Level up to at least 45 before attempting these fights.

Rewards and Why They’re Worth It

Each legendary Pal has a unique passive skill that makes it a game-changer:

  • Frostallion: “Ice Emperor” – increases Ice damage by 20%. It’s the best Ice mount and a powerful fighter.
  • Frostallion Noct: “Dark Emperor” – increases Dark damage by 20%. It’s a faster flying mount than the regular Frostallion.
  • Jetragon: “Dragon Emperor” – increases Dragon damage by 20%. It’s the fastest flying mount in the game, making travel much quicker.
  • Paladius: “Holy Emperor” – increases Neutral damage by 20%. It’s a strong all-rounder with high defense.
  • Necromus: “Dark Emperor” – increases Dark damage by 20%. It’s a powerful ground mount with high attack.
  • Grizzbolt (open world): “Absolute Frost” – this is a bug; it doesn’t have a unique skill. It’s a level 20 Electric type that’s good for mid-game, but not as valuable as the others.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I breed legendary Pals to get more?
No. Legendary Pals cannot be bred. You can only obtain them from their fixed spawn locations. However, you can breed a legendary Pal with another Pal to get a regular version of the offspring, but you’ll never get another legendary from breeding.

Do legendary Pals respawn if I kill them?
Yes, they do respawn after a few in-game days (approximately 3-5 days). The respawn timer resets when you’re in the area. So if you accidentally kill one, you can come back later and try again.

What’s the best sphere to use for catching a level 50 legendary?
Legendary Spheres are the best, but they are expensive to craft (they require Pal Metal Ingots and Ancient Civilization Parts). Ultra Spheres are a good alternative if you have a high catch rate bonus (like from a status effect and low HP). You’ll need at least 20 Ultra Spheres for a single legendary.

Can I catch the tower boss Zoe & Grizzbolt?
No, you cannot catch the tower boss version. You can only catch the level 20 Grizzbolt that spawns in the open world near the Rayne Syndicate Tower. The boss is a separate entity that doesn’t drop a sphere.

Is there a trick to catching Paladius and Necromus faster?
They spawn together, so you have to fight both. A good strategy is to use a Pal with a strong AoE attack to damage both, then focus on catching one while the other is distracted. Alternatively, you can kill one, catch the other, and wait for the killed one to respawn later.

Do I need a specific Pal type to counter each legendary?
Yes, type advantages matter. Use Fire attacks against Frostallion, Ice attacks against Jetragon, and Dark or Dragon attacks against Paladius and Necromus. For the level 20 Grizzbolt, use Ground attacks for a quick win.
