Palworld is one of the most popular games in the world right now - and with good reason too, it’s great. 

While on the face of it, Palworld may seem like a relatively innocent game about beating up Pals and forcing the ones you capture into slavery on your base, if you’re feeling mischievous, Palworld can be so much more. There is a wanted system within the game, so within this Palworld wanted system guide you will see the Palworld wanted system explained, how to get wanted status, and also how to go about removing wanted status in Palworld.

How to get wanted status in Palworld

The easiest way to get wanted status in Palworld is simply by committing a crime. You can do this by attacking any NPC you see within the world. Once you attack them, or even go so far as to kill them, you will receive a wanted level in Palworld.

You can also gain a wanted status for trespassing, which you can do by accessing any of the wildlife sanctuaries within the Palworld map.

Once you have a wanted level in Palworld, an association called the PIDF will come looking for you. These guys can be very deadly, so think twice before becoming wanted in Palworld.

You might be able to fight them off, but if you can’t, what’s the best way for you to go about removing wanted status in Palworld?

Removing wanted status in Palworld

Okay, okay, let’s say you’ve committed a crime in Palworld and now you have a wanted level. Maybe you can gith the PIDF – if for a short amount of time – and maybe you can’t, so what do you do when the wanted level becomes simply too much to handle?

The easiest way to remove wanted status in Palworld is to just die. Yeah, it sucks, and depending on the settings of the server you may lose all your stuff, but at least you will no longer have wanted status. Try jumping from a very high place or going for a long swim in very deep water, there’s no way you’ll survive that.

Alternatively, just let the PIDF kill you. Or don’t, because who wants to be held accountable for their crimes?

The other way of removing wanted status in Palworld is by evading the PIDF. If you have a fast mount then hop on and get out of the area, once you are far enough away, you should see your wanted status disappear. 

Strategies for wanted players in Palworld

Now that you know the various ways to remove wanted status in Palworld, let’s recap the different strategies for wanted players in Palword:

1. Stand and fight: Provided you think you can fight the PIDF (something we don’t recommend unless you have guns and high-level pals), then why not stand and fight? Take them on, get their delicious exp, maybe even capture some PIDF members, and see how long you can last like it’s GTA and not Palworld.
2. Run away: This is the safest method of removing wanted status in Palworld.
3. Die: We feel like this is self-explanatory, but hey, at least you’ll no longer have a wanted level after whichever Palworld crime you committed.
   

Tips for managing wanted level in Palworld

If you’re looking for tips on managing wanted level in Palworld, there is only one we can give you: don’t commit a crime in Palworld. It really is that simple. 

That being said, we understand that sometimes you can’t help but get a wanted level, especially if you’re trying to complete the Paldeck and need to go to a wildlife sanctuary in order to do so. In that case, the best tip we can give you is to be prepared to go to a wildlife sanctuary and leave quickly before heading back once you wanted status has gone. 

However, if you are strong enough to manage multiple combat situations, you will be able to fight and heal up with the respite you get between battles with the PIDF.
