As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/palworld-tycoon-has-kept-the-survival-game-running-since-launch-some-900-hours-ago-to-farm-a-million-gold-off-a-honey-farm-almost-scared-to-look-at-the-hours-played\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GamesRadar<\/a>, the source of their piles of gold is honey and patient grinding.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PocketPair\u2019s open world survival game is set on an island inhabited by creatures called Pals. As a human who just washed up on the island, the player can construct their own bases, find and make resources, and battle and capture these creatures. Captured Pals can be used by the player as they see fit, and since Palworld\u2019s early access release back in January, players have been coming up with their own different ways of surviving and making in-game money on the island. Along the way, various methods of exploiting the game and its systems have been discovered (such as <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/20240216-27332\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">taking advantage of a handy glitch<\/a> that lets you butcher Pals for legendary schematics without killing them).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-001.jpeg\" alt=\"Palworld\" class=\"wp-image-27854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-001.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-001-380x214.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-001-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-001-600x338.jpeg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Captured Pals that have farming abilities can be placed in a ranch that you have built. In the ranch, they will automatically produce items depending on their farming-related Partner Skill.<strong> <\/strong>Although you can get honey from battling other Pals, you need to have captured a Beeguarde to actually farm the sticky sweet stuff.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One dedicated Palworld player took to Reddit to report that they had been farming honey ever since the game\u2019s launch. According to user Bungeon_Dungeon post, they had amassed a staggering 45,053 jars of honey, which they sold for 1,126,325 gold- making them a Palworld millionaire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Palworld\/comments\/1aztjo4\/honey_money_how_do_you_guys_like_to_farm_for_gold\/\">Honey = money. How do you guys like to farm for gold?<\/a><br> by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/Bungeon_Dungeon\/\">u\/Bungeon_Dungeon<\/a> in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Palworld\/\">Palworld<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if you are using Beeguarde Pals to collect honey, it would take a considerable amount of time to farm that many jars. In fact, according to Bungeon_Dungeon, he has &#8220;Had the game running almost since launch- almost scared to look at the hours played.\u201d If the game has been running from around January 19 all the way to February 26, when this Reddit post was made, then the total playtime is probably around 900 hours. It seems that the player\u2019s Beeguarde(s) has been mass producing honey non-stop for at least a month.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bungeon_Dungeon\u2019s post attracted a variety of responses. Some critical comments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Palworld\/comments\/1aztjo4\/comment\/ks3vn9z\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;utm_term=1&amp;utm_content=share_button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stated that<\/a> he plays Palworld like an \u201cidle game\u201d and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Palworld\/comments\/1aztjo4\/comment\/ks4cx0n\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;utm_term=1&amp;utm_content=share_button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">remarked<\/a> on the resulting electricity bill. Many others questioned why you would ever need that much gold in the game.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lot of Reddit commenters were puzzled by the player\u2019s technique, arguing that there are way more easier and efficient methods to gain gold in Palworld. For example, some users suggested that gold can be earned in less time by defeating black marketeers and bosses, while others recommended making nails, which could be sold for an abnormally high price before v0.1.5.0 was released on February 27.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002.jpeg\" alt=\"Palworld\" class=\"wp-image-27861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002-380x253.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002-700x466.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27850-002-600x400.jpeg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, defeating bosses requires a certain amount of effort, and you must also wait for them to respawn if you are grinding for gold. The black marketer can be easily defeated by &#8220;burning him at the stake&#8221; with a campfire and a hanging trap, but this too requires the player to return to the title screen to make him reappear. As for the nail-selling technique, you must mine metal ore to create nails. Even if you leave the mining to your Pals, you still need to have chosen a suitable location for your base. Furthermore, nails have been nerfed as a good source of gold as their selling price was decreased from 160G to 20G per nail in the v0.1.5.0 update.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the simplicity and ease of operating the \u201choney for money\u201d scheme may have appealed to Bungeon_Dungeon. It does not require any operations, does not need a specific base location. All the player must do is assign the task to their Beeguarde(s) once and the process is almost complete. This may be why the OP chose to become a honey farmer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Either way, Bungeon_Dungeon\u2019s style of playing Palworld, a title with strong combat and adventure aspects, like an idle game has attracted a lot of positive and negative reactions. Even though it isn\u2019t the most efficient method of earning gold, \u201cHoney Tycoon\u201d could be an interesting approach if you are looking for a more leisurely way to play Palworld.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Palworld is available in early access for the PC (<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/1623730\/Palworld\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/palworld-game-preview\/9nkv34xdw014\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\"><em>Written by.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/author\/verity-townsend\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Verity Townsend<\/a>\u00a0based on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/articles\/newsjp\/20240228-284125\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">original Japanese\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/articles\/newsjp\/20240216-282731\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">article<\/a>\u00a0(original article\u2019s publication date: 2024-02-28 12:25\u00a0JST)\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dedicated Palworld player has amassed a huge fortune by selling all the honey they farmed since the open-world survival game&#8217;s release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":27853,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","autoblue_enabled":true,"autoblue_custom_message":"","autoblue_shares":[],"autoblue_post_url":"","autoblue_publish_document":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[62,3],"tags":[18],"class_list":["post-27850","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-indie-games","category-news","tag-global-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
