Best Uses
Mid-tier mount & ground attacker Pair Rushoar with the right base stations to unlock its full potential: it covers Farming, Mining. For combat, its Ground / Dark typing decides matchups - check the type chart on the combat page before big fights.
A common spawn in its habitat, you can farm Rushoar for Raw Meat or better traits by catching multiple copies.
Early Game Priority
How soon you should chase Rushoar: capture Rushoar early โ it is rank 1/5 and spawns in Windswept Hills, so a single trip usually yields a usable copy. If you catch it in its natural zone, hold one copy for breeding and keep the best-stat version for the job you need. Skipping it early is fine โ it is a convenience Pal, not a requirement โ but the right timing saves a lot of backtracking later.
Gameplay Roles & Practical Use
Rushoar shines as a Mid-tier mount & ground attacker. In a working base, assign it according to its suitabilities:
- Farming โ keeps Berry Plantations and food production running.
- Mining โ breaks ore nodes and keeps stone/ore production flowing.
Because it is a Ground, Dark-type Pal, Rushoar fits best in teams that need that elemental coverage โ pair it with Pals that cover its weaknesses (water, grass, dragon). In combat it plays a mid-to-low threat with capture rank 1/5 โ easy to catch with basic Pal Spheres from the first hours. Use it early for Raw Meat production, then keep or retire it as stronger Pals unlock.
How Rushoar Compares
| Pal | Type | Work suitability | Drops | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lamball | neutral | Farming / Handiwork | Wool | 1/5 |
| Cattiva | neutral | Handiwork / Mining / Transport / Farming | Red Berries | 1/5 |
| Daedream | dark | Handiwork / Transport / Gathering | Small Pal Soul | 2/5 |
Versus these alternatives, Rushoar trades raw output for a focused niche โ pick it when you need exactly its combination of Farming, Mining, and swap to a specialist when one job matters more.
Where to Catch & Farm
Habitat: Windswept Hills. Spawns here are easy to catch with basic Pal Spheres from the first hours; bring the appropriate sphere tier and weaken Rushoar before throwing if its level matches yours.
Farming tips: defeat or capture several copies to harvest Raw Meat โ the drop feeds crafting and base upgrades, so a short farming loop near its spawn point pays off. For non-boss spawns, re-visiting the zone after a respawn cycle keeps the supply steady.
Community Strategies & Loadout Notes
The community runs Rushoar for Raw Meat income and farming, mining coverage. Type-wise, its Ground, Dark attacks hit fire, electric, neutral, dragon for bonus damage, while you should shield it from water, grass, dragon.
Recommended passive skills: Swift/Legend for movement Pals, Serious/Work Slave for base workers, or Musclehead/Ferocious for combat builds. Breed it (see the breeding guide) to lock in ideal passives, and condense extras at the Pal Condenser for rank-ups.

Partner Skill & Playstyle
This collection covers selected Pals and example builds. The patch date identifies a release reference; it does not establish that every Pal stat, breeding combination or combat value has been retested.
Recommended Passive Skills
| Build type | Passives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Elemental damage boost | Flame Emperor / Lord of the Sea / Spirit Emperor / Lord of the Underworld | Raises the matching elemental damage by 20%, the biggest single bump for combat Pals of this type. |
| Work speed | Serious / Artisan / Work Slave | Stack work-speed passives for the fastest base production โ ideal for a dedicated worker. |
Because Rushoar lands at capture rank 1/5, re-breeding for passives is cheap compared to legendary Pals โ a handful of eggs usually locks the ideal set. Extras feed the Pal Condenser for free rank-up stars.
Base & Squad Setup
Slot Rushoar into a base that needs farming, mining and it becomes a self-sufficient worker: pair it with a Ranch (for Raw Meat) and the matching production station (for farming). For combat squads, lead with a Pal that resists its weaknesses (water, grass, dragon) and keep Rushoar as the secondary damage source.
In multiplayer, assign Rushoar to the player whose base lacks its strongest work type โ a dedicated farming or farming Pal frees the other players for exploration and boss fights.
Progression & Team Synergy
Early game, Rushoar is a foundation Pal: its Raw Meat and farming keep a first base alive while you explore. Mid game it holds value as a specialist โ keep one condense-ranked copy for the job it does best. Late game, it usually rotates out of combat but stays valuable in the base โ a classic "retired to workbench" Pal.
Team synergy: Rushoar pairs naturally with Pals covering its type weaknesses (water, grass, dragon), and with any Pal that boosts the work type you rely on. In co-op, a base with one Rushoar plus one dedicated miner and one transporter covers the classic early base triangle.
Breeding & Perfect Copies
Because Rushoar is rank 1/5, it is cheap to breed: two copies from the wild (or one wild + a same-type partner) produce eggs quickly at the Breeding Farm. The goal is a copy with the right passives for its job โ Work Slave + Serious is the community's target set.
Every egg also gives you a free Condenser sacrifice: hatch extras and feed them to the Pal Condenser to raise stars, which boosts the Pal's stats and work speed. A fully condensed Rushoar outperforms a wild-caught one by a wide margin, so breeding is the intended path for long-term use.
Drops from breeding runs double as income โ the surplus Raw Meat you no longer need can be sold or used in recipes (check the resources guide for everything it feeds into).
Resource & Utility Loop
| Loop | Output | How to use |
|---|---|---|
| Primary drop | Raw Meat | Defeat or ranch Rushoar for a steady supply โ the fastest early source in its habitat. |
| Work output | Farming, Mining | Assign to matching stations; work speed scales with rank and passives. |
| Combat value | Ground, Dark | Covers fire, electric, neutral, dragon for bonus damage; weak to water, grass, dragon. |
The sustainable loop: capture 2-3 Rushoar โ ranch/park them for Raw Meat โ feed surplus into crafting and selling โ breed extra copies โ condense the best one. That single chain covers food, materials, income and a combat-capable Pal all at once.
