Ancient Civilization Core Farming Planner

Pick the endgame gear you're building and see exactly how much Ancient Civilization Core you need — and which farming method gets you there in the fewest runs. Per-run amounts are datamined from paldb.cc (single-source; community wikis report lower). Core is the Legendary material — not the common Parts.

How Core farming works in 1.0

Best active source

Raid bosses via the Summoning Altar (with a slab) are the sustainable pick: 100% drops, infinitely repeatable. Hartalis (4–7) and Moon Lord (4–6) give the most among non-Ultra raids; Ultra variants drop a flat 10 (paldb).

Best passive source

Pal Expeditions need no combat. World Tree (Hard) yields 6–9 (~50%); the Snow expedition (from ~Lv22) is the earliest source at 1/run. Keep them running in the background at every stage.

Not the same as Parts

Ancient Civilization Core (Legendary, ~2,000G) is a separate, scarcer item from Ancient Civilization Parts (Rare, ~1,000G). Several recipes need both — this planner counts only the Core side.

This planner does the arithmetic on the numbers you enter. Recipe Core costs and per-run drop amounts are datamined from paldb.cc (read 16 Jul 2026; recipes re-verified in full 19 Jul 2026). The four weapons are crafted at a rarity tier and every tier has a different recipe — the figures above are the Common tier. Legendary costs roughly double the Core (Beam Launcher 20, Plasma Rifle 14, Beam Scatter 10, Drone Launcher 10) and additionally needs Ancient Civilization Parts, a different item this planner does not track. Note too that every recipe here needs several other materials besides Core — Ultra Shield, for instance, also takes 30 Ancient Civilization Parts, 150 Paldium Fragment, 50 Plasteel and 10 Bio Battery. This tool plans the Core line only. Per-run amounts are single-source — community wikis (wiki.gg, pindrop) report lower per-boss numbers, and Oil Rig / World Tree (Hard) drops are chance-gated (~55% / ~44% / ~50%), folded into the “runs” estimate — so any run count is an estimate, not a guaranteed figure. Weapon costs are the base schematic tier; higher schematics cost more. Your Ancient Civilization Core on hand figure is remembered in this browser and shared with our other Palworld tools, so you enter it once; it carries the date you entered it and we ask rather than assume once it is a few days old. Nothing is sent to a server, nothing identifies you, and clearing your browser data removes it.
