Youā€™re going to want to travel quickly when youā€™re adventuring across the land, which is why youā€™re going to need a fast mount. Ground mounts are a great way to traverse Palpagos to get where you need to fast. Weā€™ve got the fastest ground mounts and how you can get them right here.

Best ground mounts in Palworld

Here are the five fastest ground mounts in Palworld, and where you can find and catch them yourself:

Necromus

The fastest ground mount available in the entire game is none other than Necromus. This Pal not only makes for an incredible Pal to bring into combat, but is also the best ground mount due to its sprinting speed of 1600.

If you want Necromus, youā€™re going to need to be ready for a tough fight, since the only way to get Necromus is by capturing the Level 50 Alpha Pal thatā€™s located in the northern tip of the Dessicated Desert. Use the Deep Sand Dunes Fast Travel point to get there quickly, and then head north of the small lake thatā€™s directly west of the point.

Your best shot at bringing Necromusā€™ health down is having a tough Dragon-type Pal to combat them, such as Jetragon or Jormuntide. This will exploit Necromusā€™ weakness, as theyā€™re a Dark-type and weak to Dragon moves.Ā 

Make sure to also bring a stronger sphere, like a Legendary Sphere or Ultimate Sphere so the Necromus doesnā€™t break free.

Frostallion

Another Legendary Pal, Frostallion, is next on our list with a sprint speed of a whopping 1500. This icy horse not only makes for a great ground mount but is the best Ice-type Pal you can find for combat. Youā€™ll definitely want to pick them up.

However, theyā€™re also a Level 50 Alpha Pal, and will not be easy to catch. Head to the Astral Mountains and you can find Frostallion near the lake due west of the Land of Absolute Zero Fast Travel point.

As mentioned, Frostallion is one of the strongest Pals in the game, so you need to be ready for combat. Stock up on strong armor and bring a powerful Fire-type with you like Jormuntide Ignis to have a chance. Catching Frostallion is worth the trouble, though.

Paladius

Paladius is like a sibling to Necromus, both being in suits of armor. However, Paladius is a bit slower as a ground mount. However, thatā€™s not to say you wonā€™t be pleased with Paladius, who has a sprinting speed of 1400. 

In fact, Paladius and Necromus are so close, that they spawn in the same location, in the northern tip of the Dessicated Desert. You can use that same location to find the Paladius.

A great way to take down Paladius is to use their sibling, Necromus, to fight them. They have near equal strength, but Necromus is a Dark-type which is strong against Neutral-types like Paladius. Attack them at nighttime when theyā€™re asleep with your Necromus for the best results.

Rayhound

Next up is Rayhound, who luckily is nowhere near as difficult to catch, but isnā€™t too shabby in combat. Plus, you still get a great sprinting speed of 1380 when you catch a Rayhound without the difficult fight required for the Legendary Pals above. 

Rayhound can be found nearly anywhere on the southern half of the island of the Dessicated Desert. I used the Duneshelter Fast Travel point and headed south to find one quickly. 

Rayhound is an Electric-type, so youā€™ll want a solid Ground-type Pal to take them on and get their health down. A Pal like Menasting or Warsect is perfect for the job. While itā€™s not a Level 50 Legendary Alpha Pal, youā€™ll still need to be ready to put up a good fight to catch them.

Pyrin

Finally, we have Pyrin as the last of the fastest ground mounts you can find with a speed of 1300. This Palā€™s usefulness mainly lies in being a good ground mount, and like Rayhound, it isnā€™t a tough Alpha Pal that can be a hassle to get.

Pyrins can be found on the eastern half of Mount Obsidian. I used the Foot of the Volcano Fast Travel point and headed up to find mine, but as long as you stay on the eastern side you can spot one. 

Bring a strong Water-type Pal to get Pyrinā€™s health low enough to throw your Pal Sphere. Relaxaurus or Azurobe are great Pals to fight Pyrin with, as theyā€™re not too high in level for you to get but still great in combat. Azurobe is even one of the fastest water mounts you can get if you need to travel the seas.

Having a ground mount is a huge plus while scavenging the lands for more materials and resources, and even new Pals to catch and use. Youā€™ll want to get one as soon as you can for the best experience.
