Summary

Alpha Pals are a rare and powerful type of Pal, but as a result of their strength, they are also harder to defeat and obtain. This special category of Pal is indicated by a small devil icon next to their name and picture. Although Alpha Pals are just variations of existing designs, they do come with bonus Passive Skills and often unique Partner Skills which elevate them above their peers.

Alpha pals are typically found indungeons throughout the game world, which follow a standard formulaic layout. Once a player learns how to reach a boss within one dungeon, they can essentially find them in any other dungeon by following the same route. In addition to making excellent combatants and workers, Alpha Pals are also worth considerably more money than regular Pals. It can be a wise idea to farm some of the best ones togenerate a substantial income. However, many are not easy to defeat.
