Some of the strangest and most unique Pals that have ever been seen on the Palpagos islands arrived with Palworld 1.0. One such Pal is Dupin. This jester-looking trickster is a late-game Pal with some powerful abilities, and one you'll definitely want for your collection. Take a look below as we tell you how to find Dupin in Palworld, its stats, breeding combinations, and more.

Dupin Location in Palworld

While it is possible to find a Dupin in some random locations out in the open isles of Palpagos, you'll have the best luck looking within the World Tree. As is the case with all Pals in this late-game locale, Dupin will spawn around levels 70 to 72. Make sure you and your party are adequately equipped, as even a single Dupin can hit you with some powerful attacks! Within the World Tree itself, you should be able to find a wandering Dupin near the Alluvion Lakefront around coordinates -1638, 1340.

Hatching Dupin (Breeding Guide)

While it might not look like your typical Fire Pal, Dupin is as flame-broiled as they come. As a result, it hatches from Large Scorching Eggs that you might find around the world. However, it's not the only Pal that can emerge. This is every possible Pal you can get from a Large Scorching Egg:

• Dupin
• Wixen
• Wixen Noct
• Bushi
• Bushi Noct
• Pyrin
• Pyrin Noct
• Ghangler Ignis
• Chillet Ignis
• Ragnahawk
• Moldron
• Kitsun
• Blazehowl
• Reptyro
• Flaracle
• Renjishi

With so many possible hatchlings, egg hunting isn't the most reliable way to get your hands on a Dupin. However, you can always use a Breeding Farm to combine two Pals for a guaranteed Dupin. We recommend a Shadowbeak & Anubis, as this pairing is slightly easier to come by than others. However, there are many more combos that can produce a Dupin, such as the following:

• Bellanoir & Azurmane
• Ghangler & Frostallion
• Panthalus & Grizzbolt
• Knocklem Ignis & Wumpo
• Univolt Cryst & Faleris

How to Defeat and Capture Dupin

While it might look innocent thanks to its harlequin-inspired getup, Dupin can deal plenty of damage if you aren't careful. If you're fighting one within the World Tree, it will be level 70 or higher and have access to most of its moves as a result. The most volatile of which are Volcanic Rain and Fire Ball. These are two different moves that can affect a large area with fiery explosions. Stay mobile and make sure you're not standing in any residual flame spots that may be left behind. Luckily, Dupin tends to travel alone, so you shouldn't have to deal with more than one of them. As far as weaponry is concerned, you could take Dupin down at range or up close with melee attacks. It doesn't have anything that should harm you too much if you get close, so the choice is up to you. Finally, as a Fire Pal, Dupin is deathly afraid of Water. Bring a Pal with some strong Water element attacks, and you should have a defeated Dupin joining your Palworld crew in no time.
