Which pals learn Wind Cutter

38 pals learn Wind Cutter by level-up in Palworld 1.0, the earliest at level 1, and Lyleen gets the most out of it at 120 attack, because it is Grass and keeps the same-type bonus. Bushi carries more raw attack at 125 and gives that bonus up.

All 38 are in the grid on this page with the level each one unlocks the move at. The unlock level runs from 1 to 30 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.

Wind Cutter power and cooldown

Wind Cutter hits for 40 on a 2 second cooldown, which is at the low end of Grass's range, where the hardest hitter lands at 800. A 2 second cooldown means it is up again almost immediately, so the damage arrives in small helpings.

How to get the Wind Cutter skill fruit

Wind Cutter 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 40-power move is still worth the slot on a pal with the attack to swing it.

Can Wind Cutter pass to eggs

Yes. A parent that knows Wind Cutter 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 Wind Cutter worth using

Early on. 40 power is at the low end of Grass's range, so it is what you use before the element's real moves unlock at up to 800. Keep it if the 2 second cooldown is doing the work; drop it once Lyleen learns anything bigger.

Is Wind Cutter a good skill in Palworld?
Early only. 40 power is at the low end of Grass's range against 800 at the top of the element, so it fills a bar before the real Grass moves unlock and comes off it afterwards. The 2 second cooldown is the one thing in its favor.
