How to Get a Grappling Gun in Palworld

Grappling Gun is one of the best early-game items to move quickly around the big wild universe of Palworld. You can unlock the recipe/blueprint of Grappling Gun using a single Ancient Part after reaching level 12.

How to Craft a Grappling Gun in Palworld

To craft a Grappling Gun, you must unlock its blueprint. Since Grappling Gun belongs to the Ancient Technology category, you require an Ancient Part to access the section. So, how do you get Ancient Parts in Palworld? The only way to get some Ancient Parts is to kill Alpha Pals or Syndicate Tower Boss Pals on the map. You can battle such bosses roaming on any biome and obtain one or two parts from them.

Once you have a single Ancient Part and unlocked level 12, obtain the Grappling Gun blueprint from the Ancient Technology section. It is a purple section adjacent to the regular one. Visit a primitive crafting bench and make a Grappling Gun using the following materials.

• x10 Paldium Fragments
• x10 Ingots
• x30 Fiber
• x1 Ancient Parts

After making one, you can equip the Grappling Gun to your inventory and start using it by shooting it toward any rock or patchy surface. Once your Grappling Gun hooks a plane, you can immediately rappel towards the area.

Is the Grappling Gun useful in Palworld?

The Grappling Gun is pretty useless in Palworld for various reasons. Firstly, the Grappling Gun has a cooldown of 10 seconds and limited range. So, you cannot keep spamming to swing between mountains like a Spiderman. The next major drawback is that you cannot attach it to any Pals to drag them or reposition them during battle scenarios. Additionally, the time required to collect Ancient Parts is pretty long, and you can use it to unlock other vital Ancient Technologies like a Sphere Launcher. To conclude, I highly suggest you tame something like Nitewing found in the green biome and use it for quick transportation instead.
