How To Increase Capture Power in Palworld

Capturing Pals in Palworld is one of the main activities that you do in the game and this provides you with new buddies to fight alongside you.

The thing is, capturing different Pals becomes more difficult as you progress, which requires you not only to get better Spheres to use but you also need to upgrade your Capture Power.

It is a good thing that there are different ways for you to improve your Capture Rate and one of the main ways to do this is to raise your Capture Power as much as possible.

What is Capture Power?

Capture Power is a stat in the game that affects the overall chance that you may successfully capture a Pal once a Sphere is thrown at it.

The higher your Capture Power, the more likely you will be able to capture a Pal but other factors affect whether this will happen.

Boosting your Capture Power by upgrading it will eventually provide you with a better chance to capture Pals and will help save up on Spheres in the long run.

How To Increase Capture Power?

Statue of Power

The Statue of Power is a structure that you may unlock once you reach Level 6 and this provides you with the ability to upgrade your Capture Power or Enhance Pals.

Approaching the Statue of Power and selecting the “Enhance Player Stats” option will open up the menu that allows you to Enhance Player Capture Power.

This will cost Lifmunk Effigies and the higher the upgrade you go for, the more of the Lifmunk Effigies that you will need.

Upgrades across different bases are all the same, meaning you can continue with your upgrades wherever you find or have built a Statue of Power.

Sphere Modules

Sphere Modules were added in the Feybreak Update and these added a new equipment slot that you could place upgrades for your Spheres in.

With a choice between 6 Sphere Modules, you can make use of their different effects based on what suits your playstyle best.

The top choices for Sphere Modules would be the Sniper Module II and the Homing Module as both provide certain effects along with +3 Capture Strength.

Sphere Critical Bonus

One of the things to consider when capturing Pals is the Sphere Critical Bonus, which occurs when you throw a Sphere at a weak spot.

Combining high Critical Power along with the Critical Bonus makes capturing Pals more effective and is something that you should keep in mind.

With high Capture Power, good Spheres and landing a Sphere Critical bonus, your success rate when it comes to capturing Pals improves greatly.

Verdict

During the earlier parts of the game, you should be able to find a few Lifmunk Effigies around the islands and these should be collected to upgrade your Capture Power as soon as possible.

Once you can craft Sphere Modules, it would be best to equip one and make use of it for a better chance to get Pals early.

Capturing stronger Pals will eventually require that you have upgraded your Capture Power, equipped a Sphere Module, and used better Spheres.
