Palworld Dog Coins Farming Guide: How to Get, Best Locations, & Vendor Prices

Posted on Jul 6, 2024 by justin

The Dog Coin is a new currency introduced in the Palworld Sakurajima Update. Unlike Gold Coins, Pal Trainers can only use Dog Coins to purchase things from one merchant NPC in the Palpagos archipelago. Despite this problem, this new currency can be used to get many fairly rare items, with some that can permanently boost specific stats! So, continue reading to learn the best ways to farm Dog Coins in Palworld.

How to Get Dog Coins in Palworld

Currently, Pal Trainers have four ways to farm Dog Coins in Palworld. These four methods are the following:

Defeat or capture a Mimog, a new Neutral-type Pal that looks like a treasure chest
Defeat human enemies, such as Syndicate Thugs
Rummage through Scrap Piles, a new resource-gathering point
Open treasure chests in and around the different locations of the map, including inside dungeons

Among the different techniques used to farm dog coins in Palworld, perhaps the best way to quickly gather this currency is to defeat hostile human NPCs. Various Syndicate Thug Camps are located throughout Palworld’s map. Additionally, a camp may have a captured Pal that you can set free. If so, the freed Pal will become part of your Pal roster. Alternatively, you can challenge the new Oil Rig stronghold, for many hostile human NPCs lurk in this area. However, this location isn't for the faint of heart and requires heavy preparation to avoid an early death.

Trading Dog Coins for Items

Pal Trainers can trade their collected Dog Coins for items from the new Medal Merchant NPC. Unlike the Black Marketeer, the Medal Merchant has no fixed spawn point. Instead, this merchant randomly spawns in churches and ruins. One ideal place to start your search for the Medal Merchant is at the Desolate Church. Thankfully, his golden coat can make him easy to spot from afar.
