Partner Skills

Partner skills (a Pal’s signature active-team ability) are data too. You can graft parts of one Pal’s skill onto another, and change a partner skill’s name and description. KREV wrote a focused guide for exactly this, shared in the guides channel (linked in Credits) - and notably it dates from the Palworld 1.0 era, so it’s a good reference point for current work.

Using a worked example, it walks through:

  • Merging skill parts - adding parts of the LORD FOX skill (from Wixen) into Katress Ignis’s Botanical Atlas partner skill.
  • Renaming the Botanical Atlas partner skill.
  • Re-describing it - changing the skill’s description text.

This builds on DataTable modding: partner skills, their names and their descriptions live in the game’s data, so the workflow is finding the right rows, editing them, and packaging the result. Names and descriptions are text, which overlaps with translations - the same TextData concepts apply.
