This Palworld tier list-adjacent run order breaks down the towers: the five classic bosses with their elements and health ranges, the climate gear each region demands, why a counter element belongs in every squad, and how the two 1.0 towers and the World Tree finale slot in. Health figures come from the bwiki tower page and Palworld best pals guide picks follow the same counter logic.
Applicable version: v1.0.5 (2026-09-15)
Palworld v1.0.5 tower order: level 10 through level 80
Why you cannot skip ahead
Tower bosses scale by level. Early bosses have long windups and slow projectiles that a sideways dodge or a stone pillar handles, while later fights compress your margins hard, so challenging out of order wastes attempts .
What 1.0 changed in the count
The 1.0 release lifted the boss count from 7 to 9 towers, adding one in the Sunreach region and one as the World Tree finale . The same patch raised the player level cap from 65 to 80 to match the level 80 finale .
Palworld five classic towers: elements and counters
| Order | Tower and coordinates | Boss | Health | Element and counter |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Rayne Syndicate Tower (111,-431) | Zoe and Grizzbolt | 30550 | Electric, countered by Ground |
| 2 | Free Pal Alliance Tower (183,30) | Lily and Lyleen | 69375 | Grass, countered by Fire |
| 3 | Brotherhood of the Eternal Pyre Tower (-587,-518) | Axel and Orserk | 130700 | Electric/Dragon, countered by Ground/Ice |
| 4 | PIDF Tower (558,-333) | Marcus and Faleris | 146975 | Fire, countered by Water |
| 5 | Genetic Research Unit Tower (-148,-447) | Victor and Shadowbeak | 200750 | Dark, countered by Dragon |
the 1.0 balance pass may have adjusted them, so treat the in-game values as final). Health climbs from 30550 to 200750, more than six times over, which is the concrete reason skipping levels does not work.
Palworld tower preparation: climate gear and consumables
Three climate requirements
The Eternal Pyre tower sits in a volcano with permanent level 3 heat and needs Heat Resistance level 3; the PIDF tower sits in desert with extreme day-night swings and needs both Cold Resistance level 3 and Heat Resistance level 3; the Free Pal Alliance tower is high-altitude and wants Cold R. Merchants in the fishing village at the volcano's foot and in the desert town sell the relevant undergarments.
What to bring
Ranged weapons and plenty of ammunition are the baseline, plus one melee backup since tower arenas are tight; estimate healing items at roughly a third of your health pool (reasoning: tower fights are sustained damage checks with spikes inside mechanic windows). Failed attempts cost no progress, so there is no need to over-stock.
Palworld tower squads: why counters are non-negotiable
The value of a counter
A dual-element boss exposes two weaknesses at once, so an Electric/Dragon boss takes extra damage from both Ground and Ice . Bringing the right element is not a small bonus; it compresses fight length, and in the three towers above 100000 health the difference is measured in minutes.
How to build the squad
Keep one Pal whose job is soaking mechanics through high health or shields, and stack the damage slots with the boss's weakness. Running all of one element is the mistake, because someone has to hold the boss during its multi-phase patterns (reasoning: fight length and tolerance needs). The Genetic Research Unit tower is the exception: non-Dragon Pals struggle badly, so bring a Dragon carry .
Palworld 1.0 towers: Sunreach and the World Tree finale
Where they sit in the order
The two 1.0 towers come after the classic five: clear the existing bosses, then move into Sunreach's sky islands, and finish at the World Tree . The finale is reported as level 80 with no fixed elemental weakness, which makes it a gear check rather than a counter puzzle.
How the fights differ
With no exploitable weakness, the finale rewards maximum investment plus reliable healing over counter-based burst, while the Sunreach tower requires completing regional prerequisites first . Given the Awakening and Mutation systems that arrived with the 1.0 release, building one all-purpose damage Pal before entering is the safer order .
Palworld investment order
| Priority | Action | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | One damage Pal per weakness element | The classic five cover Ground, Fire, Ice, Water and Dragon |
| 2 | One high-health soak Pal | Mechanic windows need a body |
| 3 | Heat and cold resistance gear | Hard gates at the volcano and desert towers |
| 4 | One generalist carry before the finale | No weakness to exploit at level 80 |
On materials, v1.0.3 lowered Jetragon's technology unlock level from 79 to 70 and cut its Pal Gear material cost , which makes the late-game mount line easier to finish. Version v1.0.4 then dropped the Work Suitability for harvesting Ancient Bark to level 1, so base material supply costs fewer hands . Together, the run-up to the towers is lighter than it was right after the 1.0 release.More guides at gghubs.com.
