Ancient Technology Points: Palworld: How to get Ancient Technology Points

Palworld is a grand adventure where players progress through a huge open world, raising Pals and becoming more effective at crafting and survival. The latter, particularly, is aided by many character progression elements, including Ancient Technology Points. One of the most important resources in the game, players will want to gather as many of these as possible to obtain new unlockables.

Simply put, there are a few ways to obtain Ancient Technology Points in the game. For the most part, players will obtain them after defeating Alpha bosses (including Bounties) in the overworld and main Tower bosses, both for the first time. Note that while Alphas and Bounties grant only 1 Ancient Technology point, Tower bosses drop 5.

Ancient Technology Points are used to unlock handy equipment and structures in the purple nodes under the Technology tab. These include crucial items and tools that cannot be obtained elsewhere, from food pouches to keep Pals fed to unlocking new mining structures and unique gear, like boots that help air-dash or double jump.

While bosses can be farmed as many times as desired across the open world since they respawn, players will not be granted Ancient Technology Points after the first fight. Thankfully, there is a workaround: Ancient Technical Manuals.

These are a consumable found in Palworld that grants 1 point when used. While they are randomly found in the world, there is a relatively consistent way to farm them: chests that spawn in the Wildlife Sanctuaries and dungeons (such as those on the Sakurajima Island) have a chance to drop Ancient Technical Manuals.

Since multiple chests spawn in these areas and reset after a while, players essentially have an infinite way of farming these points. That said, these are mid to late game areas, and visiting the Sanctuary will put a bounty on the players' heads if spotted on the island by the guards, so some caution is advised.
