Best Handiwork Pals in Palworld
Works benches: crafting, repairing and building most items. 109 of the 299 Pals can do this job, and the highest innate level among them is 8.
Why Handiwork matters
Touches nearly everything you make, which makes it the single most valuable suitability to staff at a high level.
Innate is not the same as final. The levels below are innate: what a Pal has before you touch it. Since the 1.0 release the ceiling is 10, and ranking a Pal up at a Pal Essence Condenser raises one of its work suitability levels, so a Pal that starts lower can be pushed past one that starts higher.
This job's name in the game data is Handiwork.
A note on the count. This page counts all 299 entries in the breeding data, which is 85 variant forms and 11 collaboration Pals above the 287 entry Paldeck total Pocketpair publishes. Lists that count Paldeck slots instead will land a few below 109 for this job. Neither number is wrong; they are answers to different questions.
Only Solenne starts at level 8. A higher level does not simply mean faster; it also decides whether a Pal can use the higher tier stations at all, so an underlevelled worker can leave a building idle rather than merely slow.
Worth checking the last column before you commit: 6 of these never appear in the wild, so they have to be bred or won from a fight. If you want one of those, run the pair through the breeding calculator first.
