Palworld v1.0.4 Adds New Missions and Balance Fixes
Patch v1.0.4 adds two new sub-missions, 'Beyond Dimensions' and 'From the Far Side of the Moon,' obtainable from an NPC at Fisherman's Point in Mount Obsidian, with the latter unlocking after the former is cleared. It also adjusts summoned and Base Pals to prioritize higher-damage skills, tweaks Lapure's swim speed and Lunaris Effigy homing, and lowers the Work Suitability needed to gather Ancient Bark to Lv.1. In battle, the minimum use distance for 'Power Bomb' was changed to curb unnatural repeated knockback abuse.
