Where the Herbil actually are

All 269 mapped Herbil points. The level range runs from 1 to 50, but the population is heavily concentrated in the bamboo, which is what these pins show.

The route
1Walk the Deep Bamboo Thicket for volumeThe thicket and the ground just south of it hold 160 of the 269 mapped points, all at levels 10 to 15. Nothing else on the map is close to that density.160 of 269 points, Lv 10 to 15
2Use Autumn Rocks if you want a cheaper oneAutumn Rocks carries 34 points at levels 5 to 7. It is the only reachable patch under level 10, and a basic sphere handles the whole band.34 points, Lv 5 to 7
3Keep Fire and Dark Pals stowedHerbil is Grass and Neutral, so it takes extra from Fire on one half and Dark on the other. Two common early partner types will kill it before you can throw.Grass and Neutral, weak to Fire and Dark
4For a high level one, leave the mainlandThe Isle of Eternal Summer holds 7 points at levels 32 to 38 and Oasis Isle holds 7 at levels 40 to 50. Both are worth the trip only if you specifically want a high level Herbil.7 points each, two islands
5If both islands come up empty, go undergroundSeven points is a thin population and a sweep can genuinely find nothing. The Mountain Stream Grotto presets field an alpha Herbil at levels 27 to 29 on demand instead.Alpha at Lv 27 to 29

Mountain Stream Grotto alpha

Two Grotto presets field Herbil in both their Boss and MidBoss slots: one alpha at levels 27 to 29, or two to three ordinary ones at 22 to 25. A Yakushima preset adds a normal-rank group at 33 to 35.

Egg hatchReasonable
Verdant Egg, two pools

Herbil is in both the Windswept Hills and the marsh and forest Verdant Egg pools, at roughly a quarter each. Not a plan on its own, but a good reason to open Verdant Eggs rather than hoard them.

The longest pair list in this part of the deck

More pairs land on Herbil than on any other Pal in the first ten Paldeck slots, and every one of them is a guaranteed result. Use it to choose a level or to pass passives down.

◆The high level Herbil populations are small. Seven mapped points on the Isle of Eternal Summer and seven on Oasis Isle, against 158 in the level 10 to 15 band. Plan a sweep of the island rather than a walk to one spot.
◆Herbil Pulse fires when you are incapacitated, not when you are low. It is a safety net that returns 30 percent of your maximum health, and it is passive, so there is nothing to press.
◆Herbil has no camp squad, no fishing pool, no field boss and no raid tier. Wild points, cavern presets and Verdant Eggs are the whole list.
Why bother
Herbil is a free second life. Herbil Pulse restores 30 percent of your maximum health the moment you go down, passively, for as long as it is in your party. Nothing else you can catch in the teens does that, and it costs you a party slot rather than a consumable.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where do you find Herbil in Palworld 1.0?

Around the Deep Bamboo Thicket, which holds 121 of its 269 mapped points at levels 10 to 15, with 39 more just south of it and 34 at Autumn Rocks at levels 5 to 7.

Where is the highest level Herbil?

Oasis Isle, at levels 40 to 50 across 7 mapped points. The Isle of Eternal Summer holds 7 more at levels 32 to 38.

Does Herbil actually revive you?

It restores 30 percent of your maximum health when you are incapacitated, while it is in your party. It is passive with a short cooldown, so treat it as one free recovery rather than a heal you control.

Is there an alpha Herbil?

Yes, in the Mountain Stream Grotto cavern presets at levels 27 to 29, in both the Boss and MidBoss slots. The same presets also field two to three ordinary Herbil at levels 22 to 25.

What does Herbil drop?

Leather and Wheat Seeds, one each at 100 percent. Wheat Seeds are the useful half, since a wheat plantation is usually the bottleneck at the level you meet this Pal.
