How paldb sources its data

Values are the exact figures the game applies, not the rounded ones most guides quote.

Roll weight is the game’s own lottery weighting — higher means it appears more often when a random trait is rolled. It is a relative weight, not a percentage, and the game files contain no table converting it to one.

Pals born with Demon’s Hand

No Pal is born with Demon’s Hand — it can only appear as a rolled trait, or be inherited from a parent that already carries it. Palworld’s files contain no inheritance probability table, so anyone quoting you odds for that is estimating.

Other passives that change Work speed

Demon’s Hand gives +90%. Nothing in the game beats that, so this is the one to keep. A higher number is better here.

Other passives that change SAN loss rate

Demon’s Hand gives +15%. 5 passives beat it, the best being Hermit Sage at -50%. A lower number is better here — the game stores the benefit as a negative.

All passive skills

Passives that move the same stat, nearest first: Remarkable Craftsmanship (+75), Artisan (+50), Work Slave (+30), Speedy Worker Lv. 4 (+25), Motivational Leader (+25), Speedy Worker Lv. 3 (+20), Serious (+20), Speedy Worker Lv. 2 (+15), Conceited (+10) and Speedy Worker Lv. 1 (+10). A Pal can carry four, so the practical question is which four — breeding for passives covers how they are inherited.

There is an item for this one specifically — Disposable Implant: Demon’s Hand— which changes a Pal’s passive rather than leaving it to breeding.
