The Drone Launcher is one of the most powerful weapons you will be able to craft in Palworld 1.0. This weapon will allow you to deal significant damage from far away, which makes it perfect for dealing with strong Pals and enemies. To acquire this weapon, you should get its blueprint and gather some rare components. In this guide, we’ll tell you where to get the Drone Launcher Schematic, how to unlock the weapon, and the fastest ways to collect every material needed to craft it.

The Drone Launcher is an advanced weapon that shoots combat drones rather than bullets. These drones will then independently attack any enemy units near the player. A total of nine drones can fly at any moment, continuously attacking and inflicting consistent damage on the battlefield.
How to Get the Drone Launcher Schematic
If you are searching for the Drone Launcher Schematic, there is a fishing spot that occasionally drops it. Alternatively, you can use several lower-level schematics to get the desired one. Travel to the World Tree and start fishing for a glowing green fish. In order to increase your chances of obtaining the rare items, take a fishing Pal along who will have a Partner Skill which increases loot rewards. Exact coordinates of where you can catch this fish are (-1730, 1341).
Legendary Drone Launcher Schematic might appear as a result of fishing in other fishing spots on the World Tree. Once you have levelled up to 77, you can unlock the Drone Launcher by using the Technology Tree. After reaching that level, simply spend 4 Technology Points to unlock its crafting recipe.
How to Craft a Drone Launcher
Once you’ve unlocked the Drone Launcher, you’ll need to craft it at an Ancient Workbench. To make one, gather the following materials:
- Ancient Civilization Core ×5
- AI Core ×8
- Paloxite Ingot ×70
- World Tree Holy Water ×40
These items can usually be obtained through late-game activities, so make sure that you are ready before harvesting them. After collecting all of them, you can proceed to craft your Drone Launcher at an Ancient Workbench.
Ancient Civilization Core
Ancient Civilisation Cores can be obtained through the defeat of Raid Bosses, which can give you the item upon beating them. Some of the Raid Bosses that can drop this item for you are Bellanoir, Bellanoir Libero, Blazamut Ryu, Xenolord, and Hartalis. If you plan on crafting your gear later on, it would be wise to farm these bosses.
AI Cores
AI Cores can’t be found naturally in the world. Instead, you’ll need to craft them at either an Advanced Workshop or an Ancient Workbench. To craft 1 AI Core, you’ll need the following materials:
- Computer ×5
- Soralite Ingot ×10
- Thermal Core ×2
- Ancient Civilization Core ×1
Since AI Cores are used in several late-game recipes, it’s a good idea to stock up on these materials before you start crafting advanced weapons and equipment.
Paloxite Ingots
To make Paloxite Ingots, you’ll first need to unlock and build an Ancient Furnace. This is the only workstation that can craft them. Each Paloxite Ingot requires the following materials:
- Soralite ×1
- Paloxite ×2
- World Tree Holy Water ×1
Once you’ve gathered all the materials, head to your Ancient Furnace and craft the Paloxite Ingots. Since they’re used in many high-tier recipes, it’s worth farming plenty of the required resources in advance.
World Tree Holy Water
World Tree Holy Water can primarily be acquired through defeating Pals located in the World Tree location, since the item drops from them. Or you have to find a Teafant Spring at the World Tree location and interact with it. When you first do so, you will be rewarded with 10 World Tree Holy Waters for free.
