Xenolord stands as one of the most formidable Raid Bosses within Palworld, introduced in the Feybreak update. This Dragon/Dark-type entity presents a significant challenge for players, boasting over 1.3 million hit points in its standard form and an impressive nearly 2.6 million in its Ultra form. To successfully defeat Xenolord, strategic planning and effective damage delivery are paramount. The boss utilizes a variety of potent attacks, including devastating laser beams, meteor strikes that affect large areas, and powerful melee hits. Maintaining mobility and mastering dodging techniques are essential tactics, making flying Pals especially advantageous in this battle.
The encounter is further complicated by a time constraint, compelling players to act swiftly to vanquish Xenolord. Team composition is critical; Pals that can withstand Dark and Dragon-type assaults, such as Astegon and Frostallion, are highly recommended. Additionally, utilizing Pals like Gobfin can significantly augment your damage output. Equipping high-level gear specific to Palworld is vital, with the Hexolite Armor set proving particularly effective against Xenolord’s fierce attacks. This challenging fight is a highlight of the Feybreak update.
Locating Xenolord in Palworld
Summoning Xenolord
Xenolord is not a creature that roams freely in Palworld like other Pals. Instead, this formidable Raid Boss must be summoned through a specific procedure. To initiate the summoning process, you need to reach Technology Level 33, which will grant you the blueprint for a Summoning Altar. It is advisable to construct this altar away from your primary structures to minimize potential damage during battles.
To summon Xenolord, you will require a unique item known as the Xenolord Slab, crafted from four Xenolord Slab Fragments. These Fragments can be acquired by dispatching your Pals on expeditions to various dungeons located on Feybreak Island. However, retrieving these Fragments is not a guarantee, and it may take some time. Once you have collected the necessary components, you can use the slab at your Summoning Altar to initiate the raid against Xenolord and, potentially, the even more challenging Ultra Xenolord. The chosen location of your altar will significantly influence your combat strategy.
Strategies for Defeating Xenolord
Effective Tactics for Beating Xenolord in Palworld
Successfully defeating Xenolord necessitates thorough preparation and a comprehensive strategy. Players should ensure their character is at least Level 60 with robust stats and equipment. Equipping the Hexolite Armor and Helmet will provide necessary protection against Xenolord’s powerful assaults. Weapons like the Rocket Launcher are extremely effective for delivering significant damage, particularly against Xenolord and its minions, the Xenogards and Xenovaders.
Adding a Laser Gatling Gun to your arsenal enables continuous fire to gradually whittle down health, while using a Poison Arrow Crossbow exploits Xenolord’s extensive health pool with poison damage. Maintaining mobility is crucial during the fight, so utilizing enhancements such as the Double Air Dash and Triple Jump Boots can aid in evading attacks.
Consider integrating the Meowmere, a weapon inspired by Terraria, into your setup for an added advantage during this fight.
As for team composition, making Frostallion your primary Pal is a strategic choice due to its powerful ice attacks and aerial capabilities for dodging enemy swings. Supplementing your team with Gobfins is advantageous for their synergistic ice-type damage boosts. Including Pals like Astegon to counter dark attacks, alongside Jetdragon and Quivern, will further enhance your type advantages.
Prior to summoning Xenolord, ensure that all your Pals are at full health and you have adequate ammunition. One effective tactic is to construct a Palbox in an open space before summoning Xenolord, allowing you to retreat to a distance. By doing so, Xenolord will target the Palbox with its Cosmic Meteor attack, permitting you to attack from a safe range. This approach is most effective with a strong ranged setup to maximize damage within the ten-minute time limit. Alternatively, creating a fortified base can allow your defensive Pals and team to effectively deplete Xenolord’s substantial health pool.
Can You Breed Xenolord?
Understanding Xenolord’s Breeding Mechanism
In Palworld, breeding Xenolord is not an option as it is for other creatures. Unlike typical Pals, Xenolord cannot be acquired by breeding two Pals at a facility. Instead, Xenolord is categorized as a Raid Boss, and players can obtain this character only by defeating it during a special raid. Upon successfully vanquishing Xenolord, you may receive a Huge Dark Egg as a reward. If you incubate this egg, there’s a chance it could hatch into a Level One Xenolord.
To enhance your chances of obtaining a Huge Dark Egg, it’s beneficial to assemble a formidable team and employ strategies that exploit the AI targeting bug, ensuring your characters are well-leveled and equipped prior to the raid in Palworld Feybreak. Remember that Ultra Xenolord can also yield a Huge Dark Egg, although it presents a significantly tougher challenge. After the confrontation, be sure to scout the area for the egg—it’s a fantastic reward for your endeavors.
