Palworld: How to beat Saya and Selyne
At Moonflower Tower onSakurajima, you’ll find Saya and Selyne as a high-level Tower Boss. This is officially the toughest Tower Boss to tackle in Palworld, so be prepared for the biggest battle yet. you may beat Saya and Selyne in Palworld withDragon Pals at level 50 or higher.
Best Pal type and level
Since Saya’s Pal Zelyne is Dark type, you’ll want to target its weakness toDragon-type Pals. I’d attempt to have the majority of your Pals be Dragon type, and ensure that there areno Neutral-type Pals in your partysince Neutral is weak to Dark. Here are some recommended Dragon-type Pals:
You should also make sure your Pals areabove level 50,perhaps evenlevel 55. You will have a tough time surviving this fight if your Pals are below level 50, so don’t even attempt to fight this boss without level 50-55 Pals.
Best weapons and armor
Other than your Pals, you should verify you’re prepared as well with the best type of gear. At this point, you should only be fighting Saya and Selyne withLegendary-level weapons and armor:
For weapons, you could go for theLegendary MusketorSingle-shot Riflewhich both do around 2,000 damage. If you want a much larger boost in damage, go for theLegendary Rocket Launcherwhich you can craft in a Weapon Assembly Line II after getting the schematics for it once you defeat the JetragonAlpha Pal.
When it comes to armor, the best you can get right now is theLegendary Pal Metal Helmetand either theLegendary Cold Resistant Pal Metal Armor or its Heat version. The only difference between the two is you get Level 2 resistance to either Cold or Heat, depending on the armor you crafted. You should also ensure you equip anUltra Shieldfor the best defense against protecting your HP from being damaged.
There are a fewnew weapons and armorfrom the Sakurajima update which actually outweigh the Legendary armor and weapons in some aspects. If you have the resources and can craft some of these items, here are the recommended weapons and armor from the latest update:
Best Saya and Selyne fight tactics
Once you get into the fight itself, you’ll be met with two difficult opponents who can dish out high-damage attacks. They’ll emit apurple AoE attackthat startssmall but enlarges to hit the majority of the arena, which you’re able to dodge-roll over or jump to avoid.
While they may have a few attacks that you can avoid by hiding behind a pillar, the majority of them canpass right through the pillars. Don’t get caught behind a pillar just to be hit with an ability that phases right through it, try dodging the attacks no matter where you’re hiding.
There’s another AoE attack that hits a spherical area withwhiteish-blue light. Once you see the circle appear, run out of its radius as soon as possible. This boss also has a few ice attacks, such as one that canrain down iciclesand turn you into an ice cube. The key to avoiding this is to simply look at the sky and see where the icicles are planning to fall so you may dodge out of the way.
Check outYouTuber HeroVoltsy’sPalworld video where he cleared Saya and Selyne in his first try to gain some insight on the tactics you should use during this fight. Otherwise, once you defeat Saya and Selyne perhaps you’re prepared to take on thePvP Arena.
