There are over 130 creatures that roam the varied biomes of the Palpagos Islands, each equipped with unique skills and powers that can be used in different ways. While several Pals are versatile enough to carry out multiple tasks like Grizzbolt and Bushi, only a select few excel at dedicating all their efforts to one specific work type, performing it efficiently.
One notable example of such a Pal is the Ground-elemental Digtoise, widely regarded as the best mining Pal in the game. Let’s jump right in and explore its spawn locations, powers, stats, breeding abilities, and more.
Where Can You Find Digtoise in Palworld?
Digtoise can only be found in two locations on Palpagos Islands. The first is in the Northernmost end of the Desert in the Furthest Mineshaft, accessible through the Deep Sand Dunes teleport point. The second is the smaller desert region containing the Anubis Statue, Southeast of the Ice Wind Island. You can get there using the Sealed Realm of the Winged Tyrant teleport point.
You will also find a Digtoise Alpha Boss if you teleport to Investigator’s Fork (-212, -206) and head to the east using a flying mount such as Faleris, Nitewing, Beakon to easily spot a Cave located at -148, -174. We recommend you to carry a Grass-type Pal such as Warsect, Vaelet, or Wumpo Botan for capturing Digtoises in the wild and for its Alpha Pal variants, as its Ground-elemental powers are weak against them.
Upon successfully capturing or killing them, you will receive Ore and High-Quality Pal Oil as drops. Keep in mind that apprehening this Pal will also unlock access to its Drill Crusher partner skill, which make significantly puffs its already impressive mining speeds. However, you need to craft a Headband for Digtoise to activate this partner skill. Here are the required resources:
X20 Leather
X30 Fiber
X50 Stone
X10 Ingot
X20 Paldium Fragments
