Cover every work type lightly
Early bases fail when one job is missing — usually Watering or Transport. Aim for one Pal per job before optimizing levels.
- Kindling — Foxparks or Flambelle
- Watering — Teafant or Pengullet
- Planting / Gathering — Lifmunk, Tanzee
- Handiwork — Cattiva, then Penking later
- Transport — Lamball / Pengullet early; Vanwyrm later
- Ranch — Chikipi, Vixy, Mau, Cremis
First upgrades worth breeding
Penking (multi-skill), Digtoise (Mining 3), and Vanwyrm (flyer + Transport 3) transform a starter base. Use the breeding calculator once Cake production is stable.
