Palworld 1.0.3 is a farming patch. The headline is simple: Holy Water is easier to get, easier to carry, and worth farming passively now.

For endgame players, this changes daily routing. For fresh saves, the patch also makes Jetragon, water bases, fiber, and oil production less painful.

↖ Palworld 1.0.3 Biggest Changes

The patch is not huge by count. It is huge by impact.

↖ Jetragon Saddle Now Unlocks at Level 70

The Jetragon saddle / missile launcher now unlocks at level 70, down from level 79.

That is the correct level range. Jetragon itself becomes relevant around this point, so the saddle no longer feels weirdly delayed.

If you hit level 70, prioritize the saddle. Jetragon is still one of the best mounts for map movement, combat mobility, and late-game routing.

↖ Aquatic Construction Kit Moved to Level 23

The Aquatic Construction Kit now unlocks at level 23, instead of 66.

That is a massive builder buff.

This means floating foundations and proper water bases are no longer late-game toys.

If you want safer bases, cleaner layouts, or water-based builds, start planning them in midgame instead of waiting until the endgame grind.

↖ Best Holy Water Farming in Palworld 1.0.3

Holy Water is the real winner of this patch.

Main buffs:

• Buff duration increased
• Weight reduced from 1 to 0.1
• Added to World Tree Expedition rewards
• Added to World Tree fishing
• Added to Large Fishing Pond rewards
• Higher value from World Tree Pal farming
• Teafant Springs now give 30 Holy Water

The weight change alone is big. You can now carry 10 times more Holy Water for the same inventory load.

↖ Fastest Holy Water Farm: Kill World Tree Pals

If you need Holy Water fast, farm World Tree Pals.

This is still the best active method. Patch 1.0.3 made it stronger.

↖ Recommended Holy Water Farming Team

Use wide-area attacks like Meteor Rain. The goal is simple: delete packs before they scatter.

↖ Tested Holy Water Drops

With a good drop setup, this can scale into thousands of Holy Water per hour.

Also note: Snokelux was renamed to Snoketerra. Same target, better name.

↖ Best Passive Holy Water Farm: World Tree Expeditions

World Tree Expeditions now reward Holy Water.

There are two versions:

• Normal World Tree Expedition
• Hard World Tree Expedition

Hard takes longer, but gives more Holy Water if your expedition power is high enough.

Hard mode takes about twice as long, but the reward can be more than double.

Run Hard if you can maintain strong reward percentage.

Run Normal if Hard gives poor returns.

↖ Expedition Side Rewards

This is why expeditions are now worth scheduling. You are not only farming Holy Water. You are also stacking endgame materials in the background.

↖ Large Fishing Pond Is Finally Worth Using

The Large Fishing Pond can now generate Holy Water.

The rate is not crazy, but it is passive. That matters.

Not amazing. Still useful.

Why? Because it does not compete with expeditions. Your base can fish while your expedition team runs and you farm elsewhere.

↖ Large Fishing Pond Bonus Materials

If you have base space, build it. If your base is cramped, expeditions and active farming matter more.

↖ World Tree Fishing Now Gives Holy Water

Fishing in the World Tree zone can now reward Holy Water.

With a fishing setup using Jormuntide, shiny glow fish tested between:

This is not the fastest farm. But if you are already fishing in the zone, the added Holy Water makes the route much better.

↖ Teafant Springs Now Give 30 Holy Water

World Tree Teafant Spring interactables now give 30 Holy Water each.

That is worth grabbing.

If your route passes near one, click it. No debate.

This is free value during active World Tree farming.

↖ Oil Extraction Buffs and Cheaper Power Setup

Oil farming got easier.

Both oil extractors are now:

• Cheaper to build
• Faster at extracting oil

The Large Power Generator also costs less to build.

Oil is still a bottleneck. It is just less miserable now.

The base upgrade mission was also fixed. Both oil extractor types now count toward the mission.

↖ Ancient Armor and Fiber Changes

Two smaller changes matter during progression.

The armor change does not reduce material cost. It reduces the work time.

The fiber buff helps most on fresh saves. Early crafting feels less starved.

↖ Moon Lord Rewards Are Better for Training Crystals

Moon Lord and Ultra Moon Lord rewards were updated for 1.0.

Ultra Moon Lord is now a strong farm for Training Crystals.

The tradeoff: Moon Lord no longer drops some old rewards, including Stat Fruits.

If you need Training Crystals, farm Ultra Moon Lord.

If you need Stat Fruits, use another route.

↖ Sphere Launcher Spam Got Nerfed

Sphere Launchers now have a forced delay between shots.

Before, players could spam low-tier spheres at high-tier Pals and brute-force bad catch odds.

That strategy is mostly dead.

If you relied on Scatter Launcher spam, switch back to proper sphere tiers and capture setups.

↖ Important Palworld 1.0.3 Bug Notes

Some bugs were fixed. Some are still around.

↖ Orserk Buff Was Mostly Visual

On official servers, Orserk's buff icon could fail to show.

The stats were still applying. The patch improves the display.

Do not rebuild your Orserk setup. It was not secretly broken.

↖ Elphidran Serpent Leather Fixed

Elphidran Serpent now properly produces leather.

↖ Immortality Passive Text Is Wrong

The Immortality passive tooltip is misleading.

It says it absorbs 100% damage and restores health. That is not the real effect.

Do not chase builds around the tooltip. The effect did not change.

↖ Ancient Material Synthesizer Can Still Break

Changing the Ancient Material Synthesizer output can tank its work speed.

Best fix:

1. Destroy the station.

2. Rebuild it.

3. Select the new material fresh.

Annoying, but reliable.

↖ Dedicated Server Accessory Bug May Still Exist

On dedicated or official servers, changing party Pals may disable accessory effects.

Temporary fix:

1. Change party.

2. Unequip accessories.

3. Re-equip accessories.

If your stats feel off after party changes, check accessories first.

↖ Best Post-Patch Farming Route

Use this loop if you are in endgame.

This is the cleanest post-1.0.3 routine.

Active farm gives speed.

Expeditions give passive value.

Fishing pond gives background resources.

Moon Lord covers Training Crystals.

↖ FAQ

↖ What is the best Holy Water farm in Palworld 1.0.3?

The best active farm is killing World Tree Pals with a drop-focused team. Use Astegon or Jetragon for wide-area damage, then stack support Pals like Menasting, Vaelet, and Maraith.

↖ Are World Tree Expeditions worth it now?

Yes. They now give Holy Water plus strong side rewards. Run Hard World Tree Expedition if your reward percentage is high. Run Normal if Hard mode gives weak returns.

↖ Is the Large Fishing Pond worth building after Patch 1.0.3?

Yes, if you have space. The Holy Water rate is not huge, but it is passive and can also produce Ancient Civilization Cores and Corallium.

↖ Did Jetragon get buffed in Palworld 1.0.3?

Jetragon itself was not directly buffed, but its saddle unlock was reduced from level 79 to level 70. That makes it much easier to use at the right progression point.

↖ Did Moon Lord still drop Stat Fruits?

No. Moon Lord's rewards changed. Ultra Moon Lord is now better for Training Crystals, Ancient Civilization Cores, Applied Handbooks, and the guaranteed Moon Lord Mask.

↖ Summary

Palworld 1.0.3 is mainly a Holy Water and farming efficiency patch.

The strongest changes:

• Holy Water weight reduced to 0.1
• World Tree Expeditions now reward Holy Water
• Teafant Springs give 30 Holy Water
• Large Fishing Pond has real endgame value
• Jetragon saddle unlock lowered to level 70
• Oil extractors are cheaper and faster
• Ultra Moon Lord is now a Training Crystal farm

Best play: run Hard World Tree Expeditions, keep a Large Fishing Pond active, farm World Tree Pals when playing actively, and use Ultra Moon Lord for Training Crystals.
