Palworld Water Pals tier list

Jormuntide and Suzaku Aqua are some of the best Water Pals in Palworld, and considering their impressive stats, they’re also among the strongest Water types when it comes to combat.

Here’s our tier list, ranking every Water Pal from best to worst in the game:

TIER	WATER PAL
S	Jormuntide, Suzaku Aqua
A	Azurobe, Penking, Relaxaurus, Elphidran Aqua
B	Surfent, Gobfin, Broncherry Aqua, Kelpsea
C	Celaray, Teafant
D	Pengullet, Fuack

Keep in mind that your tier list might be different from ours as we’ve taken the regular versions of every Water Pal into consideration, with several factors like their damage profile and Work Suitability determining our picks.

Every Pal, regardless of their type, can get a significant improvement if you optimally use the breeding feature, along with feeding them good food to buff the stats.

• How to get:
  • Easy to find in the No. 1 Wildlife Sanctuary Island, located at the Southern end of the map, and to make your way to the island, you’ll need a swimming or flying Pal.

While Azurobe’s Level 3 Watering by itself is enough to have this Pal around your base, it also boasts impressive stats to help you overpower Fire types. You can also ride it to travel across water, giving a decent buff to your attacks while mounted.

Azurobe can also perform a few Dragon skills due to being a Dragon and Water type.

2. Suzaku Aqua

True to its name, Suzaku Aqua looks just like Suzaku with a dark blue appearance. It’s one of the few Water Pals that can fly, however, you’ll have to mostly rely on breeding to get it in your party, as you can’t find Suzaku Aqua anywhere on the map.

1. Jormuntide

• How to get:
  • Can be found in two lakes, around the coordinates (-176, -268) and (351, -85).
