Where to get Silver Key in Palworld
2 Pals drop Silver Key, and they are not equal — Leezpunk Ignis gives 1 at 2%, which is the best return per kill in the game. Every rate below is the game's own figure.
Each Pal here gives more Silver Key per kill than every Pal that spawns earlier — hunt the highest one you can reach.
| From level | Pal | Avg per kill | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| 21 |  Leezpunk | 0.01 | |
| 28 | Leezpunk Ignis | 0.02 |
Not a speed ranking: spawn density and kill time are not in the game files, so “fastest” is not something this page can prove.
Pals that drop Silver Key
| Pal | Rate | Amount | Avg per kill | Where |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leezpunk Ignis | 2% | 1 | 0.02 | |
| Leezpunk | 1% | 1 | 0.01 |
Rate and amount are stated by the game. “Avg per kill” is ours — the rate multiplied by the mean of the amount range — so you can compare a rare big drop against a reliable small one without doing it in your head.
Alpha Pals that drop Silver Key
| Alpha | From level | Amount | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| LeezpunkSelf-Proclaimed Genius | Any | 1 | 2% |
| Leezpunk IgnisSelf-Proclaimed Fashionista | Any | 1 | 2% |
The alpha (boss) version of a Pal has its own drop rows, separate from the ordinary wild one’s. “From level” is the Pal level at which that row starts applying.
