New Essential Resource in Palworld Sakurajima Update
The Sakurajima update introduces a crucial new element to the world of Palworld server hosting — crude oil, indispensable for crafting numerous items in the game. Obtaining this resource goes beyond simple collection; it requires building a specialized base for oil extraction.
Crude oil can only be obtained from the island of Sakurajima, located northwest of the main archipelago. On the island map, black spots indicate areas rich in oil, with northern, eastern, and central regions being particularly abundant. There is ample space around each oil field for constructing a compact base and setting up the necessary extraction equipment.
Methods for Extracting Crude Oil
To efficiently extract crude oil, you need to place an oil extractor directly on an oil field. Once installed, it will begin to slowly extract oil automatically, provided there is an energy source nearby. Additionally, a large generator is required, which must be connected to two electric Pals with an electricity rating of at least three. You can also obtain crude oil by defeating Kikits and Sootseer creatures on the island of Sakurajima, though each enemy drops only one or two oil samples.
IMPORTANT
You can further acquire crude oil using the oil tower on the southeast of the island, which is currently the most challenging outpost in the game.
Unlocking the Oil Extractor
To activate the oil extractor in Palworld, you need to reach level 50 and spend two technical points. To craft the extractor, you will need:
250 Pal Metal Ingots
50 Printed Circuits
This is high-cost equipment for resource gathering in the later stages of the game.
After activating the extractor, you must select it from the construction menu under the "Production" tab and place it on an oil-rich location. It requires electricity to operate, and a large generator will be necessary as standard pylons will not provide sufficient power. Connecting high-rated electric Pals will enable your oil extraction operation.
Importance of Crude Oil in the Update
Crude oil is critical for crafting better armor and powerful flamethrowers, as well as essential for producing plastic in the later stages of the game.
