We have encountered many bugs and glitches in Palworld since the day it was released. Not that we are complaining; after all, it is an early-access game from a relatively small company, and even they didn’t expect it to be so popular. The most horrible of all the bugs we have seen in Palworld so far is the Lifmunk Effigies bug. Because it would not be wrong to say that if you get caught in this bug, there is no going back. Therefore, knowing that such a bug exists in the game will be very beneficial.
Players Complaining About Lifmunk Effigies Bug in Palworld
As you know, Palworld has many Lifmunk Effigies in various parts of the map. After collecting them, you can select the “Enchance Player Stats” option in Statue of Power, then increase your Capture Power by spending the Lifmunk Effigies you collect. However, when you do this, your chances of capturing Pals in Palworld decrease significantly instead of increasing.
Players who have fully upgraded their Capture Power without knowing this are having an incredibly difficult time in the game and are currently unable to enjoy the game. You can see in this post on Reddit that many players are suffering from this bug, Pocket Pair needs to fix this bug immediately. If you do not want to have troublesome experiences due to this bug, we recommend not increasing your Capture Rate for now and waiting for Pocket Pair to fix the bug in future updates.
The video below shows a statistical experiment in Palworld. YouTube channel Chalenor catches Pals with and without Lifmunk Effigies. You can see from these statistics how frustrating and dangerous the bug is:
