What is Shadowbeak’s Weakness in Palworld?
Shadowbeak, being a Dark-type Pal, is particularly susceptible to Dragon-type attacks. This means that Dragon-element Pals can deal extra damage to Shadowbeak, giving you a significant advantage in the battle. However, simply relying on elemental advantages won’t suffice.
To stand a chance against Victor & Shadowbeak, your character and Pals must also be at their peak strength. Aim to reach level 50 with both your character and primary combat Pals, and enhance their stats using the Statue of Power and Pal Essence Condensor. Equipping your character with Legendary-rarity armor and weapons, if available, further boosts your chances of success!
List of Pals Strong Against Shadowbeak
Here’s a breakdown of the top Dragon-type Pals, in order of their Base ATK stat, whose attacks will prove ‘highly effective’ against Shadowbeak:
| Paldeck Number | Name | Base Attack |
|---|---|---|
| #111 | Jetragon | 140 |
| #101B | Jormuntide Ignis | 130 |
| #106B | Orserk | 130 |
| #98 | Astegon | 125 |
| #101 | Jormuntide | 120 |
| #85B | Relaxaurus Lux | 110 |
As you level these pals up to 50, you’ll be able to unlock and equip a combination of powerful Dragon-type Active Skills on them (like Draconic Breath and Dragon Burst), which deal additional damage to a Dark-type Pal like Shadowbeak. Additionally, these Dragon Pals can also resist Dark-type attacks, allowing them to last longer in combat against Victor & Shadowbeak before needing to be switched out!
