Where to Find Effigies in Palworld — All Statues and Their Bonuses
Updated: 2026-07-13
The short answer
Effigies are glowing green Pal figurines scattered across the whole island. There are hundreds of them — far more than you need to max out — so just grab them as you travel. Palworld 1.0 brought the count to 13 kinds: each is themed after a Pal and grants its own permanent bonus when you hand it in at the Statue of Power.
We've mapped every statue's exact location on the interactive map — open the “Effigies” group in the layer panel and toggle the one you want, to see where to find that specific effigy. Below is what each statue does, with a link to its map layer.
Lifmunk Effigy — capture power
The Lifmunk Effigy is the one to prioritise: each you hand in raises your capture power, and with it your odds of catching any Pal. It's the first thing worth collecting, and also the most common — over 150 spots in the world, so you'll never run short: see them on the map.
To get the most out of capture power, read how to increase your catch rate, and estimate the odds on a specific Pal in the capture calculator.
Effigies for movement and exploration
These effigies speed up how you get around: the Pengullet Effigy boosts swim speed, the Rooby Effigy jump power, the Herbil Effigy glider speed, and the Tanzee Effigy wall-climbing speed.
The Mimog Effigy (move speed) is the odd one out: it isn't placed in the world and won't show on the map — it's handed to you as a Paldex-completion reward rather than found in the field.
Effigies for survival
These statues make long trips easier: the Lamball Effigy slows hunger, the Munchill Effigy slows food spoilage in your bag, the Depresso Effigy raises resistance to ailments (cold, burn, poison), and the Cattiva Effigy cuts stamina drain from sprinting, gliding and climbing.
Effigies for progression
These effigies are rarer — only a handful of spots each — but their effects are strong: the Lunaris Effigy adds homing to thrown spheres, the Relaxaurus Effigy increases the EXP you earn, and the Yakumo Effigy raises the chance of a rainbow (top-tier) passive on the Pals you catch.
How to find effigies and where to hand them in
Effigies glow green from a distance — you can spot them at night and in caves. They usually sit near landmarks: beside towers, at dungeon entrances, on cliffs and around ruins. Don't sweep the terrain blind — open the map, toggle the layer for the statue you want and plan a route straight along the points.
Hand collected statues in at the Statue of Power at your base: the bonus stacks with every level and applies permanently — to all your Pals and your character. It pays to collect effigies from the very start: the effect compounds.
