How to Summon the Moon Lord in Palworld
First things first: the Moon Lord doesn’t just roam the world. Like all Raid Bosses in Palworld, you’ll need to summon him at a Summoning Altar. To unlock the Summoning Altar, hit Technology Level 32 and spend three Ancient Technology Points. Building it will cost you 100 Stone and 20 Paldium Fragments.
Pro tip: Set up your Summoning Altar in an empty base, somewhere safe. You don’t want the Moon Lord trashing your valuables or other Pals getting in the way.
Getting the Celestial Sigil
To bring the Moon Lord into the world, you’ll need a Celestial Sigil. Here’s the quick route: head to the Sealed Realm of Terraria (check your map), gather Hallowed Bars, and defeat the Eye of Chtulhu for the Celestial Sigil Schematics. At your crafting bench, use 100 Hallowed Bars to make a Celestial Sigil.
Once you’ve got the Sigil, place it on the Summoning Altar and get ready — the Moon Lord is about to appear!
How to Beat the Moon Lord: Tips and Weak Points
Here’s where the real fun begins. The Moon Lord is a level 50 Raid Boss, but don’t rush in until you’re at least level 60 for the best chance at survival.
You can’t capture the Moon Lord, but you can defeat him by targeting his three weak spots: the giant eyes on his forehead and the palms of his hands. The catch? You can only damage them when they’re open, so keep your aim sharp and attack the second they blink open.
Once you’ve destroyed all three eyes, the Moon Lord’s heart will be exposed in his chest. This is your big chance — hit the heart hard to bring him down for good!
Best Pals and Weapons for the Fight
The Moon Lord doesn’t have any elemental weaknesses, so bring your strongest combat Pals — type doesn’t matter, but power does. Forward-firing attacks like Dark Laser or Pal Blast work wonders for hitting those tricky weak spots.
A flying mount, such as Jetdragon, can help you reach those eyes, but remember: precision attacks beat area-of-effect here.
On the weapon front, load up your best ranged gear. The Plasma Cannon and Charge Rifle are top picks, but watch out for the Charge Rifle’s slow wind-up — timing is everything.
What to Watch Out For
The Moon Lord isn’t just a tanky boss — he’s got moves. He’ll summon floating eyeballs that hover and then shoot straight at you, and his forehead laser will track you around the battlefield. Keep moving and stay sharp!
Moon Lord Rewards: What Do You Get?
Defeating the Moon Lord means a shower of randomized rewards: fruit, lotuses, pendants, and Training Crystals. But the real prizes? The Legendary Meowmere weapon and the stylish Moon Lord Mask. If you don’t get them the first time, don’t worry — you can always craft another Celestial Sigil and try again.
Now you know how to summon and defeat the Moon Lord in Palworld. Gather your best team, get your gear, and show this Terraria legend who’s boss!
