How to use Lifmunk Effigies in Palworld

Giving statues to a statue

There are a total of 429 Lifmunk Effigies scattered all over Palpagos. They’re hard to miss with their bright green glow, especially in the dark of night. The little statues are used to increase players stats, namely Capture Rate, so they’re worth collecting and using.

If you’re struggling to capture even low-level Pals, chances are you’ve not been increasing your capturing power. To do so, you need to visit a Statue of Power.

Head to the Statue of Power at your base or one further afield, such as the one at Desolate Church, if you’re away from home or just don’t have one. You’ll have two options when you approach the stone Anubis and want to pick the first one. The second option allows you to increase the stats of your Pals using Pal Souls

Currently, the only stat you can increase is Capture Rate. There are currently ten levels of increase and they all cost incrementally more Lifmunk Effigies to unlock, beginning with one and ending with 35. Each level unlocked adds 1% fixed additional Capture Power and you can see this by hovering over Spheres within your inventory. 

Here’s the full list of increases and how many Lifmunk Effigies you’ll need to find and exchange in order to unlock it:

5%15 Effigies
6%19 Effigies
7%23 Effigies
8%27 Effigies
9%31 Effigies
10%35 Effigies

In total, you’ll need to find 173 Lifmunk Effigies in order to cap out your Capture Power, but with far more than that available across the map, you shouldn’t struggle to do so.
