In terms of accessibility and multiplayer features, Palworld has grown so much since its release. With Pocketpair adding crossplay to Palworld, the number of sessions people can join has drastically increased, and the overall experience has improved. The increase in available sessions means everyone can get more out of Palworld's multiplayer features, and there is one feature in particular, which centers around Ice-type Pals, that can further enhance the enjoyment of being on a server with others.

Palworld's major Feybreak patch gave players more reasons to engage with the game's multiplayer aspects. While the new Pals and areas may have been the highlights of the update, it also added new structures to the game, and one in particular stands out from the rest: the Flea Market. With this structure, players can sell items or Pals to others for custom prices, essentially serving as an in-game market during multiplayer sessions. Great as the Flea Market may be, goods stored in it will eventually spoil. However, the recent 0.5.0 update allows players to slow down the spoiling process by assigning Ice Pals to manage their stalls, and that is why they should consider utilizing those Pals when playing with others and using the Flea Market.

Why Players Need to Assign Ice-Type Pals to the Flea Market

If there's any reason for people to revisit Palworld, the Flea Market is high on the list, as the structure is both useful and makes the game more engaging. Pairing the Flea Market with Ice Pals allows the structure to work to its fullest potential, and it provides the following benefits:

  • Players who assign Ice Pals to their Flea Markets can slow down the rate at which their rare perishable items spoil, giving them more time to sell their items at high prices.
  • Ice Pals allow players to set up Flea Markets and bases in areas that would be too hot without them, giving them more options when establishing a headquarters.

Ice-type Pals can also slow down the spoilage of food items in a Cooler Box, ensuring that there is always something for players to consume.

While not the absolute best in the Palworld element type chart, Ice Pals prove that they are still effective and have utility. Hopefully, players can see that utility shine through when assigning the creatures to their Flea Markets.

How Using Ice Pals Is Great for Things Other Than Palworld’s Flea Market

Again, there are better options than the Ice Pals if a player wants to build the best team, but that doesn't mean that they need to be relegated only to spoilage prevention duty for everyone's Flea Markets and Cooler Boxes. A few of the strongest Pals in Palworld belong to the typing, such as Frostallion, and they can definitely be used to achieve victory in a fight. Also, using Ice Pals allows for more diversity, in terms of team composition, and increases the number of coverage options, making battles against AI and human opponents more unpredictable and exciting.

Ice Pals can provide players with a better experience when selling items through the Flea Market or battling opponents, but they're still not in that position where they can be seen as something to be heavily prioritized. Palworld' s roadmap could paint a bright picture for the element and give it the chance to become one of the best options to pick, but only if Pocketpair sees the potential it brings to the game's multiplayer and solo gameplay.
