How to get Horns in Palworld

To get Horns in Palworld, you’re going to have to capture or kill specific Pals that drop them. Eikthyrdeer are the best source for Horns in Palworld’s early hours, and they spawn pretty much all around the map.

Whenever you defeat an Eikthyrdeer, you can expect to find Horns and Leather in your inventory. Though plenty of other Pals in the game will also drop them so it’s best to keep your eyes peeled for anything with antlers or, you guessed it, horns.

Tip:

If you’re ever curious about what resources a Pal can drop, you can just a look at their entry in your Paldeck. Of course, to add them to your Paldeck you’ll have to catch them first!

The best way to farm Horns in Palworld

The best way to farm Horns in Palworld is to use a fast travel location where Pals that drop Horns frequently spawn. One of the best spots to farm Horns is near the Rayne Syndicate Tower, where you’ll find plenty of Eikthyrdeer spawning. Defeating them will have you stocking up on both Horns and Leather.

If you’re looking to get more materials from your Pal hunts, consider capturing them as Pals first and then defeating them with Butcher Knife. Sure, this sounds inhumane, but the method will double the materials you’ll receive from defeating a Pal. That’s not even counting the additional XP you’ll receive from the captures.

  • Caprity
  • Eikthyrdeer
  • Eikthyrdeer Terra
  • Incineram
  • Incineram Noct
  • Arsox
  • Univolt
  • Reindrix
  • Fenglope

Buy horns from Wandering Merchants

If you’re having a harder time finding the horns that you need from capturing and killing Pals, then you could always visit a Wandering Merchant. Keep in mind that the cost can quickly add up, however, as Horns cost 300 gold each.


While material searches can look boring, they can help you expand your horizons in Palworld. You can find your first Lucky Pal or end up gathering materials that your friends might need if you’ve previously used server invite codes to play together.
