Which pals learn Rocky Impact
39 pals learn Rocky Impact by level-up in Palworld 1.0, the earliest at level 40, and Anubis gets the most out of it at 130 attack, because it is Ground and keeps the same-type bonus. Necromus carries more raw attack at 145 and gives that bonus up.
All 39 are in the grid on this page with the level each one unlocks the move at. The unlock level runs from 40 to 70 depending on the pal. The list is regenerated from the game's own skill-master table on every build, so it is the complete set rather than a sample of the popular ones.

Rocky Impact power and cooldown
Rocky Impact hits for 600 on a 30 second cooldown, which is near the top of Ground's range, where the hardest hitter lands at 700. At 30 seconds between casts you get one of them per engagement, and a missed cast is the whole engagement.
How to get the Rocky Impact skill fruit
Rocky Impact 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 600-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.
Can Rocky Impact pass to eggs
Yes. A parent that knows Rocky Impact 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 Rocky Impact worth using
Yes, on a pal that already boosts Ground. 600 power is near the top of Ground's range, and the 30 second cooldown is the price of it. Put it on Anubis at 130 attack and it is the opener; on a low-attack pal the wait is not worth the hit.
Rocky Impact FAQ
- Which pals learn Rocky Impact in Palworld?
- 39 of them, and the grid on this page names every one with the level it unlocks Rocky Impact at. The earliest is Moldron at level 40; Anubis gets the most out of it at 130 attack, and Necromus out-attacks it at 145 while giving up the same-type bonus. The list is read off the game's own skill-master table.
- Can you get Rocky Impact from a skill fruit?
- Yes. Rocky Impact 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 Rocky Impact do in Palworld?
- Rocky Impact has 600 power and a 30 second cooldown. Power gets multiplied by the pal's attack stat and the element matchup, so the same move hits far harder on Anubis at 130 attack than on anything below it.
- Is Rocky Impact a good skill in Palworld?
- Yes. At 600 power on 30 seconds it sits near the top of Ground's range, where the hardest hitter lands at 700, so it is worth the slot on Anubis at 130 attack. Keep it on Ground if you can: off-element the 600 power stays and the same-type bonus goes.
- Can Rocky Impact be inherited by breeding?
- Yes. A parent that knows Rocky Impact 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.
