Shockwave power and cooldown

Shockwave hits for 80 on a 4 second cooldown, which is at the low end of Electric's range, where the hardest hitter lands at 600. A 4 second cooldown means it is up again almost immediately, so the damage arrives in small helpings.

How to get the Shockwave skill fruit

Shockwave 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 80-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.

Can Shockwave pass to eggs

Yes. A parent that knows Shockwave 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 Shockwave worth using

Early on. 80 power is at the low end of Electric's range, so it is what you use before the element's real moves unlock at up to 600. Keep it if the 4 second cooldown is doing the work; drop it once Helzephyr Lux learns anything bigger.

Shockwave FAQ

Which pals learn Shockwave in Palworld?

23 of them, and the grid on this page names every one with the level it unlocks Shockwave at. The earliest is Jolthog at level 1; Helzephyr Lux gets the most out of it at 125 attack. The list is read off the game's own skill-master table.

Can you get Shockwave from a skill fruit?

Yes. Shockwave 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 Shockwave do in Palworld?

Shockwave has 80 power and a 4 second cooldown. Power gets multiplied by the pal's attack stat and the element matchup, so the same move hits far harder on Helzephyr Lux at 125 attack than on anything below it.

Is Shockwave a good skill in Palworld?

Early only. 80 power is at the low end of Electric's range against 600 at the top of the element, so it fills a bar before the real Electric moves unlock and comes off it afterwards. The 4 second cooldown is the one thing in its favor.

Can Shockwave be inherited by breeding?

Yes. A parent that knows Shockwave 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.
