Palworld Guild and Raid Tips for Server Owners
Guilds and raids shape how a community plays. As an owner you can steer the experience with clear expectations and sensible settings.
Decide how guilds work
Guilds let players share a base. Decide whether you want small friend guilds, larger teams or a mix. Larger guilds mean more bases and Pals, which affects performance. Check current guild size options in your game version and settings, as these may change.
Write simple guild rules
- How many guilds each player can lead.
- Whether abandoned guilds can be cleared.
- How to resolve disputes between guilds.
Post them where everyone can find them, such as a pinned Discord message.
Raids
Raids are events where enemies attack a base. They add challenge and can strain weaker defences. If you want less pressure, review the related settings. See our guide on PvP, raid and base limit settings for the details, and always back up before changing anything.
Prepare players
Tell new players how raids work and what a good defence looks like. Encourage them to build defences, keep ammo stocked and have fighters online or ready.
Keep fairness
If PvP is on, set clear rules about when and where fighting is allowed. Mixed expectations cause arguments. Consider specific event times so players can prepare.
Running events
- Organise guild competitions, such as building contests or boss runs.
- Announce them early in Discord.
- Take a backup beforehand in case something goes wrong.
Watch performance
Large fights and raids can be demanding. Monitor the panel during busy events. If lag appears, consider adjusting limits or restarting at quiet times.
Steps to get started
- Choose your guild size and base rules.
- Review raid and PvP settings.
- Post rules in Discord.
- Run a small test event.
- Gather feedback and adjust.
Good communication prevents most disputes before they begin.
