While this Pal is at the base, every other Pal at that base gets Mining suitability +1 (the supporter itself is not boosted). It is the same from β˜…0, so condenser rank does not matter. A second copy does not add another +1.

How it is used: players pair it with Pals that reach 9 after full condensing, so supporter +1 makes 10 without spending a suitability book (community tip). Whether +1 can go past 10 is unconfirmed β€” the pages assume the level cap 10.

Community picks β€” Mining

as of 1.0.5 Β· community opinion, summarized Β· checked 2026-10-10

The baseline is Anubis with the Demon's Hand day set, and many also put a fully condensed alpha Sekhmet on mining. Aegidron, a Mining-only Pal, has the top natural level at 8.

Supporter: Tetroise (+1 Mining, though it eats 8). Some say adding Demon's Hand and Remarkable Craftsmanship to a Lv10 miner is little gain for the effort.

Base = condenser β˜…0 with no passives (base tier also weighs nocturnal). Max build = condenser β˜…4 (raises the level), the best work passives β€” four for nocturnal Pals, three plus Insomnia for the rest β€” and the Pal's own partner skill bonus. βš™ = partner bonus that needs a facility or companion (ranked with it met).

Nocturnal (πŸŒ™) Pals keep working at night. In the max build non-nocturnal Pals spend one slot on Insomnia to work at night, so they get one work passive fewer. Work amounts are the game setting amount for the level times the work speed bonus; the formula and assumptions are below. Tiers match this job's tab in the Work tier list (capturable Pals only).

Assumptions β€” effective work speed

game data of the listed version

Effective amount = work amount for the level Γ— (1 + sum of work speed bonuses Γ· 100)

  • Base: condenser β˜…0, no passives. Max build: condenser β˜…4 (raises suitability levels, rule below) + work passives + the Pal's own partner skill work bonus at β˜…4. In both, partner bonuses use the value for that β˜….
  • Nocturnal: in the max build a non-nocturnal Pal spends one slot on Insomnia (1β˜…, 10,000G at the surgery table) to work at night, so nocturnal Pals get four work passives and the rest three plus Insomnia (the community's Demon's Hand sets for night and day Pals). In the 1.0.5 data all 73 Dark Pals are nocturnal and no other Pal is. So the max-build tier has no nocturnal weight; only the base tier does.
  • Stacking: work speed % from passives and partner skills is assumed to add up and then multiply once. The real formula lives in the game code and cannot be checked from data.
  • Check: in the Handiwork-type table, bare Lv10 (5,400) is 1.50Γ— Lv8 with Demon's Hand (1,900 Γ— 1.9) β€” the same as the community's "Lv10 with nothing is about 1.5Γ— faster than Lv8 + Demon's Hand". Levels matter more than passives.
  • Alpha Sekhmet: in the data (DT_PartnerSkillParameter BOSS_Sekhmet) its own efficiency bonus is Ribbuny Botan's +200/220/260/320/400%; β˜…0β€“β˜…3 keep the workbench/production line condition, but β˜…4 has an empty facility list. Read as no facility limit, it is applied to both Handiwork and Mining at β˜…4 and ranked separately from the normal Sekhmet. This is simply how the 1.0.5 data is set up and the community treats it as a bug β€” a patch may change it. Of 293 alpha/normal pairs, Sekhmet is the only one whose partner skill differs.
  • Level cap 10 (WorkSuitabilityMaxRank). A work suitability ticket (handbook) gives +1 per book, but how many one Pal can use is not in the data, so tickets are not scored (same for every Pal). The "at Lv10" value on work pages is a reference: the same passives and bonuses at level 10. There is no Oil Extraction ticket.
  • Base work speed is 100 for every Pal, so it is not multiplied in. What the Farming level values mean (production interval…) and whether work speed passives affect ranch output are unconfirmed (the community tests are all pre-1.0 and disagree).

β˜…1β€“β˜…3 each add +1 to one suitability (cycling from the highest level; ties follow the game data's suitability order) and β˜…4 adds +1 to all. Both the 1.0 patch-note wording and the Korean community's full-condense tests fit this rule (e.g. Renjishi Kindling 8β†’10, Solmora Lux Electricity 6β†’9 and Watering 4β†’6, Eidrolon Ignis Kindling 6β†’9 and Transporting 6β†’8, Frostallion Cooling 7β†’10). Cap 10. The +5% per β˜… in the game settings (StatusCalculate_GenkaiToppa_PerAdd) is for HP/Attack/Defense and nothing says it applies to work speed, so it is not included.
