The best mining Pals are the ones that keep Ore, Coal, Sulfur, or late-game mineral bases productive while still leaving room for transport and smelting support.
Worker Picker
Pick the worker role that fixes the base, not just the Pal with the biggest number.
Select the production problem you are actually seeing, then jump into worker, base, and resource guides that match that bottleneck.
Version scope: Palworld 1.0. This tool maps site guide clusters; it avoids exact suitability tables until a complete work-suitability dataset is imported.
Mining base output
3 rolesStart with Mining workers, then add Transporting before adding more miners. A mining base only works when mined stacks actually reach storage and smelting.
Base goal
Mine Ore, Coal, Sulfur, Quartz, Chromite, or Hexolite inputs at a dedicated base.
Bottleneck
Materials are staying near nodes or furnaces are waiting on raw inputs.
Do next
- Assign dedicated Mining workers to the material that is blocking the next craft.
- Place storage beside the node area before judging worker output.
- Add Transporting support when materials pile up on the ground.
- Add Kindling only if smelting becomes the next visible blocker.
Watch for
- Mining workers wandering into unrelated jobs.
- Long storage routes that make good workers look slow.
- Coal and Ore stockpiles getting out of balance for Refined Ingots.
Recommended worker roles
View all workersThe best transporting Pals reduce idle time by moving mined, crafted, and harvested materials into storage before production stations stall.
The best kindling Pals support furnaces, cooking, and Cake production, so they matter for mining bases, breeding bases, and any route that turns raw materials into progression.
