Ever since Palworld took the gaming world by storm, players have wondered if it is possible to catch the iconic boss duo, Zoe and Grizzbolt. While early players relied on an unintended boss-capturing glitch that was eventually patched out, game updates have officially integrated a legitimate way to recruit them. Understanding how this process works allows trainers to add this powerful pair to their active team or base without relying on exploits.
The Evolution of Catching Tower Bosses
During the initial launch of the game, capturing tower bosses like Zoe and Grizzbolt was only achievable through a well-known wanted-level glitch. Developers eventually fixed this unintended oversight, temporarily leaving players without a way to recruit boss characters. Recognizing the feature's immense popularity, official updates introduced structured questlines to legitimately unlock these unique allies.
Starting the Official Recruitment Quest
To begin the process of unlocking Zoe and Grizzbolt, players must first defeat them in their original Rayne Syndicate Tower encounter. After winning the battle, Zoe will appear as an interactive NPC located near the Desolate Church rather than remaining inside the tower. Interacting with her at this location initiates a series of story-driven tasks required to gain her trust.
Completing Zoe's In-Game Missions
The recruitment process involves fulfilling three specific objectives handed out by Zoe. First, players must present a captured Grizzbolt, which can be found roaming Wildlife Sanctuary No. 1. After that, you must defeat a group of Free Pal Alliance members and retrieve a special nostalgic item located at the Fort Ruins.
Unlocking and Using the Duo
Once all three tasks are completed, Zoe and Grizzbolt will automatically join your Pal roster as a combined unit. This partner unit functions similarly to a standard Pal, allowing players to assign them to base work or summon them into active combat. Furthermore, crafting their specialized saddle enables players to ride Grizzbolt while utilizing high-powered minigun attacks in battle.
