Which pals learn Astral Ray
One pal learns Astral Ray by level-up: Xenolord, at level 30, with 120 attack behind it. No fruit teaches it, so that one pal is the whole list.
Astral Ray power and cooldown
Astral Ray hits for 500 on a 24 second cooldown, which is mid-table among Dark moves, where the hardest hitter lands at 800. 24 seconds between casts puts it in the middle of a rotation rather than at the start of one.
Can you teach Astral Ray to any pal
No. Astral Ray has no skill fruit in Palworld 1.0, which is the part most move lists leave out. Xenolord is the only pal that will ever have it, at level 30. Every Dark skill is listed with its own fruit flag.
Can Astral Ray pass to eggs
No. Astral Ray does not survive an egg in Palworld 1.0. A hatchling has to reach level 30 on a learnset that carries it. Breeding for it is wasted cake, so plan around the Dark pals that already have it.
Is Astral Ray worth using
Only until something better unlocks. 500 power is mid-table among Dark moves, and on a 24 second cooldown it is the move you run while you level toward the 800-power end of the element.
Astral Ray FAQ
- Which pals learn Astral Ray in Palworld?
- Exactly one: Xenolord, which unlocks Astral Ray at level 30. No skill fruit exists for it, so that single learnset is the only place the move appears in Palworld 1.0.
- Can you get Astral Ray from a skill fruit?
- No. Astral Ray has no skill fruit in Palworld 1.0, so Xenolord is the only pal that will ever have it. No amount of chest farming changes that.
- How much damage does Astral Ray do in Palworld?
- Astral Ray has 500 power and a 24 second cooldown. Power gets multiplied by the pal's attack stat and the element matchup, so the same move hits far harder on Xenolord at 120 attack than on anything below it.
- Is Astral Ray a good skill in Palworld?
- As filler. At 500 power on 24 seconds it sits mid-table among Dark moves, and Dark runs to 800, so it holds a slot until something bigger unlocks rather than earning one outright. Off-element it also loses the same-type bonus.
- Can Astral Ray be inherited by breeding?
- No. Astral Ray does not carry to eggs in Palworld 1.0, so a hatchling never starts with it. Level a learner to 30 instead, and treat the move as something you train rather than something you breed for.
