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 Masochist

No Pal is born with Masochist — 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 Defence

Masochist gives +15%. 10 passives beat it, the best being Sanctified Meat Shield at +50%. A higher number is better here.

Other passives that change Attack

Masochist gives -15%. 10 passives beat it, the best being Twin-Edged Holy Blade at +50%. A higher number is better here.

All passive skills

Passives that move the same stat, nearest first: Pal Defense Up Lv. 3 (+15), Defense Up Lv. 2 (+15), Pal Defense Up Lv. 4 (+20), Burly Body (+20), Defense Up Lv. 3 (+20), Stronghold Strategist (+10), Heavyweight (+20), Pal Defense Up Lv. 2 (+10), Defense Up Lv. 1 (+10) and Hard Skin (+10). A Pal can carry four, so the practical question is which four — breeding for passives covers how they are inherited.
