Which pals learn Hydro Slicer
Hydro Slicer sits on 12 learnsets in Palworld 1.0, the earliest unlocking at level 30. Croajiro Noct gets the most out of it at 110 attack. Every learner and its unlock level is on this page.
Hydro Slicer power and cooldown
Hydro Slicer hits for 350 on a 16 second cooldown, which is mid-table among Water moves, where the hardest hitter lands at 800. 16 seconds between casts puts it in the middle of a rotation rather than at the start of one.
How to get the Hydro Slicer skill fruit
Hydro Slicer has a skill fruit, so any pal can carry it whatever its own element. Fruits rotate on the blue skill fruit trees and turn up in Palworld field chests. Feeding one to an off-element pal costs you the same-type damage bonus and nothing else, so a 350-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.
Can Hydro Slicer pass to eggs
Yes. A parent that knows Hydro Slicer gives the hatchling a chance to be born with it already equipped, which is one fewer fruit and one fewer level grind. Check which half of a pair carries it before you commit them, because the breeding planner reads the moves off your save and can tell you.
Is Hydro Slicer worth using
Only until something better unlocks. 350 power is mid-table among Water moves, and on a 16 second cooldown it is the move you run while you level toward the 800-power end of the element.

- Can you get Hydro Slicer from a skill fruit?
- Yes. Hydro Slicer has a skill fruit, so any pal can learn it whatever its element. Fruits rotate on the skill fruit trees and turn up in field chests. Putting it on an off-element pal costs you the same-type damage bonus, not the move itself.
- How much damage does Hydro Slicer do in Palworld?

- Is Hydro Slicer a good skill in Palworld?
- As filler. At 350 power on 16 seconds it sits mid-table among Water moves, and Water 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 Hydro Slicer be inherited by breeding?
- Yes. A parent that knows Hydro Slicer gives the egg a chance to hatch with the move already equipped, which saves you a fruit and a level grind. Worth checking which parent has it before you commit a pair to the breeding farm.
