↖ Mastering Fishing: Hook, Line, and Sinker

Fishing is a quintessential activity in Palia, and it's essential to do it right. When casting your line, wait for a fish to bite, then click to set the hook. Once you've got a fish, adjust the bars to keep the fish centred and follow its movements closely. Using worms as bait increases your chances of catching different fish, which you can purchase from the General Store or craft using a worm farm machine. Interestingly, feeding cooked food to the worm farm yields more worms, so make the most of your culinary skills.

 

↖ The Power of Social Fishing

When fishing next to other players, please take advantage of the Hook Time Buff that accumulates each time they catch a fish (up to 5 times). This early-game boost can significantly enhance your fishing productivity.

 

↖ Resource Gathering Locations

Gathering resources is a core part of Palia's gameplay. Clay can be found near water bodies, especially along the coast of Fisherman's Lagoon and Remembrance Beach. Copper ore is abundant in mountain areas of the initial zone, while iron is found in Bahari Bay and Pavel Mines. Hardwood stands out with its brownish bark and is a feature of Bahari Bay.

 

↖ Building Friendships with NPCs

Building relationships with NPCs can be a joyous endeavour. Remember to talk to them daily to increase their friendship levels. Completing their weekly gift requests significantly boosts your friendship. Use the middle mouse button to locate NPCs on the map for quick navigation.

 

↖ Upgrading Your Home Strategically

Upgrading your house requires substantial materials like stone bricks and planks. Set up multiple forges and sawmills to expedite this process, and cut your waiting time in half. As you progress, better versions of these machines become available, streamlining your upgrading experience.

 

↖ Socializing and Trading with Others

Palia's social aspect offers emotes (press "T" to access) and a friends menu ("O" key) that includes a requests sub-menu. Fulfilling requests not only aids other players but also rewards you with Renown, which is useful for expanding your plot or purchasing items.

 

↖ Farming with a Twist

Palia's farming is unique: each crop has a specific boost for neighbouring crops. Intelligently arrange crops to optimize their benefits. Carrots and onions deter weed growth, enhancing overall crop health. Keep a balance between selling crops and using them for seed making.

 

↖ Efficient Gold Generation

Earn Palia gold by collecting beach forageables like shells, coral, and oysters. Fish, crops, and snails are lucrative as well. Utilize the General Store's register for instant sales, and don't overlook the potential of crafting and selling furniture.

 

↖ Tool Management and Repair

Upgrade your tools to unlock durability. Letting them degrade leads to a downgrade, so repair them either at repair stations or with your own crafted Repair Station using gold. No need to break the bank on repair kits.

 

↖ Miscellaneous Hints and Tips

• Don't ignore the loaded potato soup recipe in Hodori's house; it's a hidden treasure.
• Keep epic rarity items, bugs, fish, and forage-ables—they might prove helpful later.
• Wardrobe lets you change clothes and hair but not facial features or skin tone—choose wisely from the start.
• Maintain a food buff for an XP boost to aid your progression.

 

With these tips, you're ready to dive even deeper into the enchanting world of Palia. Enjoy the open beta to the fullest and continue uncovering all the delightful surprises this game offers!
