THE DOG COIN GOLD RUSH: How Palworld 1.0 Players Are Utilizing a ‘Katress Exploit’ and World Tree Routes to Buy Infinite Elixirs and Star Fruits
STOP WASTING DUPES ON PAL CONDENSATION! 🛑 A newly broken 1.0 farm is handing out “infinite” star fruits that max out your Pal ranks instantly!
Top endgame raiders have just bypassed the brutal Pal-condensing grind by exploiting an unlimited Dog Coin farming loop in a hidden “glowing hot spot.” By pairing a fully condensed Katress to trigger a massive 80% item drop multiplier on neutral spawns, players are farming thousands of Dog Coins to purchase limitless Applied Technique Books and stat-boosting Elixirs. We have the exact World Tree flying route where these rare Mimog spawns are reset constantly, and you can start doing this today. 👇🔥
With the launch of Palworld 1.0, developers Pocketpair have introduced deep progression mechanics designed to push player and Pal stats to absolute perfection. But with high-end power comes a grueling grind. Traditionally, upgrading your Pal’s star rank required sacrificing dozens of identical clones in the Condensation Machine, while leveling up player carrying capacity and base worker efficiency meant hours of tedious farming.
But the community has once again found a massive shortcut.
A newly discovered, unlimited Dog Coin farming method is currently taking the Palworld community by storm. By combining a highly specific Pal-passive multiplier with a newly mapped spawn route inside the World Tree biome, trainers are easily hoarding thousands of Dog Coins.
With this pocket-swelling currency, players are buying unlimited Applied Technique Books, stat-boosting Elixirs, and game-breaking Star Fruits—effectively rendering the traditional, slow condensation grind obsolete.
The Prize: What Does the Dog Coin Merchant Sell?
To understand why players are frantically farming this rare currency, one must look at the inventory of the secretive Dog Coin Vendor.
While this merchant can be found scattered across the Palpagos Islands, his earliest and most accessible permanent spawn is at the Desolate Church [01:09]. Clever trainers are even capturing this NPC using high-tier spheres and bringing him directly back to their bases to utilize his shop on demand [01:15].
The merchant’s stock is a treasure trove of endgame progression items [01:33]:
Applied Technique Books: Available in unlimited quantities [02:14]. Reading these books immediately raises your base working Pal stats.
Star Fruits: The ultimate breeding shortcut [02:00]. Feeding a Star Fruit to a Pal instantly upgrades its rank, performing the exact same function as the Condensation Machine without requiring players to sacrifice dozens of duplicate Pals [02:07].
Skill Elixirs & Skill Fruits: Consumable potions that permanently scale up the player’s or Pal’s health, attack, defense, and carrying capacity [01:45].
Lily’s Spear Schematic (Both Variants): The highly sought-after legendary blueprints [02:14].
These items normally cost between 200 to 300 Dog Coins each, a price tag that feels astronomical under normal play conditions—unless you know how to break the drop rates.
The Catalyst: The Katress 80% Drop Hack
The absolute key to this farm’s high efficiency lies in a Neutral-type Pal called Katress [03:27].
Under normal circumstances, Dog Coins are obtained by hunting down a elusive, chest-themed Pal called Mimog in the open world [02:44]. Because Mimogs are Neutral-type Pals, they are highly susceptible to Katress’ unique Partner Skill.
When a player has a Katress in their active party that has been fully condensed to Rank 4 (four stars) [03:36], her Partner Skill activates a massive passive multiplier: Neutral Pals drop 80% more items when defeated [04:01].
By keeping this fully condensed Katress in your active party—which requires zero player gear or saddles to function [03:48]—every Mimog you defeat will drop almost double its standard amount of Dog Coins and Gold Coins [04:08]. Even an unconverted, standard Katress still offers a solid 40% drop multiplier, but elite players are highly urged to mass-breed and condense a four-star variant to maximize their hourly yield [04:16].
The Route: The World Tree Cold Zone Hot Spot
In the past, pinpointing a reliable Mimog farm was nearly impossible because they could randomly spawn in place of almost any wild Pal on the map [02:50].
However, Palworld 1.0 has introduced a massive spawning anomaly. The sprawling World Tree area has shown a significantly elevated spawn rate for Mimogs [04:38]. Specifically, the cold section of the World Tree acts as a massive “hot spot” for these coin-carrying creatures [05:00].
To execute the farming loop:
Fly the Route: Bring any flying mount [05:07] and fly in a continuous, tight loop across the snowy ruins of the World Tree’s cold sector [05:13].
Reset the Spawns: Flying away from a spawn point resets the active wild Pals. By circling back and forth, you constantly force the game to roll new spawns [06:20].
Spot the Glow: The cold zone of the World Tree is naturally dim and dark. Because Mimogs feature glowing elements on their body chests, they are incredibly easy to spot from high altitudes, even while moving at high speeds [06:31].
Strike and Defeat: Once a Mimog is spotted, land, engage in combat with your Katress active in your party, and reap the massive, doubled Dog Coin rewards.
Community Backlash: A New Divide
As expected, this infinite coin loop has sparked intense discussions across the Palworld community. On X (formerly Twitter), some hardcore players complain that bypassing the traditional Condensation Machine with easily purchasable Star Fruits cheapens the endgame experience. “What is the point of setting up massive breeding factories to condense your raid armies when you can just fly around a snowy tree for an hour and buy your way to max rank?” one user argued.
However, the overwhelming majority of players are celebrating the discovery. For solo gamers and those on official servers who do not have the time to hatch hundreds of duplicate eggs, the Dog Tree route represents an incredibly welcome catch-up mechanic.
“This is an absolute godsend for anyone trying to build multiple raid teams,” a popular Reddit comment reads. “Pocketpair gave us the tools, and we’re just using them. Buying unlimited Applied Technique Books and Star Fruits with farmed coins is infinitely better than spending a week watching egg incubation timers.”
Final Verdict
Whether you are a fresh 1.0 survivor or a returning veteran looking to rapidly optimize your base workers and combat squad, saving this farming blueprint is essential.
Even if you have not reached the high-level World Tree zone yet, bookmarking this route and prioritizing the breeding of a four-star Katress is the ultimate preparation for the endgame. Head to the cold sector of the World Tree, fire up your flying mounts, and let the infinite Dog Coin riches carry your squad to absolute perfection!
