Palworld Anubis Location and Catch Guide: Current 1.0.4 Coordinates

Where Is Anubis in Palworld 1.0?

Anubis is at the Anubis Dunes field-boss marker at (-134, -94) in the current 1.0 release line. The encounter is a level-55 Alpha Pal, not the level-47 boss described by many Early Access guides. Both the current PalDB v1.0.4 Anubis record and an independently updated Game8 Anubis guide place the boss at the same location.

Location detail	Current answer
Encounter	Field Alpha Anubis
Level	55
Area	Anubis Dunes
Coordinates	(-134, -94)
Nearest named fast travel	Anubis Dunes; travel south from it
Element	Ground
Weakness	Grass

Current data also lists regular Anubis spawns in later, higher-level areas, including level 68-72 entries and a level-80 World Tree entry. Those are advanced alternatives, not a reason to ignore the clearly marked level-55 Alpha when the goal is a repeatable fixed coordinate.

How Do You Reach the Anubis Location at (-134, -94)?

The shortest named route is to use the Anubis Dunes fast-travel point and move south until the level-55 field-boss marker appears. If that point is still locked, mark (-134, -94) on the world map and approach from your nearest unlocked travel point with a suitable land or flying mount.

1. Open the world map and place a marker at (-134, -94).
2. Fast-travel to Anubis Dunes if it is unlocked.
3. Travel south toward the marker rather than searching the entire surrounding biome.
4. Confirm that the target is a level-55 Alpha Anubis before committing resources.
5. Stop outside aggro range long enough to equip the capture loadout and put the intended Grass Pal in your party.

A map label may occasionally show the Y coordinate rounded by one point. That does not indicate a second fixed boss: use the Anubis Dunes field-boss icon and the (-134, -94) reference together.

What Should You Bring to Catch Anubis?

Bring controlled ranged damage, a shield, a Grass-type Pal, healing supplies, and multiple high-quality Pal Spheres. There is no honest universal sphere tier that guarantees this capture: target HP, player capture power, status effects, level progression, and world settings all change the displayed chance.

• Grass Pal: Grass is strong against Anubis’s Ground typing. Choose one that can survive a level-55 fight, not merely one with the correct icon.
• Ranged weapon: Ranged damage lets you maintain space and stop attacking more cleanly when Anubis reaches low HP.
• Shield: A regenerating shield gives you recovery time while learning the boss’s telegraphed attacks.
• Pal Spheres: Use the strongest sphere available through your current Technology progression and carry extras. The current Palworld 1.0 capture guide notes that higher-quality spheres improve catch rate and that a target can be too high-level for a lower-tier sphere.
• Healing and repair margin: Arrive ready for more than one capture attempt rather than treating the first throw as guaranteed.

Pocketpair’s own Palworld product guide describes the core loop plainly: weaken a creature, then use a Pal Sphere. The important limitation is “weaken,” not “defeat.” High damage is useful early in the fight but becomes a liability near the capture threshold.

How Do You Catch Anubis Without Defeating It?

Reduce Anubis to low HP, stop all uncontrolled damage, and then use your best available sphere while watching the catch-rate display. The safest sequence separates the damage phase from the capture phase so a party Pal or damage-over-time effect does not deliver the final hit.

1. Open from range. Let a durable Grass Pal exploit the elemental weakness while you stay far enough away to read the boss’s attacks.
2. Move out of telegraphs. Roll or step away from marked attack areas. Keep moving when a projectile has targeted your position instead of trading damage in place.
3. Slow down before critical HP. Stop using heavy attacks when Anubis is nearly ready for capture.
4. Recall your attacking Pal. This removes one common source of accidental finishing damage.
5. Avoid lingering damage at the end. A non-damaging negative status can improve capture odds, but burn or poison can defeat a low-HP target while a throw is in progress.
6. Throw a high-quality sphere. If the game indicates that the current sphere is ineffective or the displayed chance is poor, move up a tier rather than wasting the entire stack.
7. Repeat without resuming full damage. A failed throw does not mean Anubis needs another heavy hit if its HP is already low.

Practical capture checklist

• Target confirmed as level 55 at (-134, -94)
• Grass Pal selected
• Ranged weapon and shield equipped
• Several strong Pal Spheres in inventory
• Party Pal recalled before the final capture attempts
• No burn, poison, or other lingering damage ticking at critical HP
• Displayed catch chance checked before each throw

What Does Anubis Drop, and What Is It Good For?

Anubis is useful both in combat and at a base, while its possible species and Alpha rewards must be treated as separate drop pools rather than one guaranteed bundle. Current v1.0.4 data lists Handiwork 6, Mining 6, and Transporting 4, making the capture immediately relevant for production as well as collection.

Category	Current data	Important limitation
Work suitability	Handiwork 6; Mining 6; Transporting 4	These are base levels before later rank or handbook investment.
Partner skill	Guardian of the Desert changes player attacks to Ground and raises Attack by 30-50% across skill levels.	The exact bonus depends on the partner-skill level.
Species possible drops	Bone; Large Pal Soul	“Possible” does not mean every item is guaranteed.
Field Alpha possible drops	Ancient Civilization Parts; Precious Entrails	This is a separate boss-reward table.

Guardian of the Desert also gives Anubis its documented evasive sidestep behavior in battle. The work levels and partner-skill values are current 1.0-era numbers; older lists with Handiwork 4, Mining 3, and Transporting 2 are stale.

Can You Breed Anubis Instead of Catching the Alpha?

Yes. A currently verified combination is Fenglope Lux + Dandilord = Anubis, but whether that route is faster depends on which parent Pals and breeding infrastructure you already have. The current PalDB parent calculator lists that result in the v1.0.4 data set.

Do not use the old Penking + Bushi shortcut from Early Access guides. Pocketpair’s official 1.0 changelog says breeding combinations were reviewed across the game, and current Anubis data no longer supports that old pair. Breeding is a valid alternative, but the field Alpha remains the direct answer when you already have access to Anubis Dunes.

Is This Anubis Location Current for Palworld v1.0.4?

Yes. The location, level, type, work levels, and breeding warning were rechecked against v1.0.4 data on September 9, 2026, after Pocketpair said the patch adjusted some Pal spawn positions. Pocketpair’s official v1.0.4 notes are the release baseline. Because those notes include a broad Pal-spawn-position adjustment, the fixed Anubis data was checked again: PalDB’s v1.0.4 record and Game8’s September 8 update still agree on the level-55 Anubis Dunes Alpha at (-134, -94).

This matters because the 1.0 launch materially changed Palworld’s progression and Pal data. Our Palworld 1.0 launch coverage records the transition, while this guide uses post-launch location and breeding values. Our current Jetragon location guide is a useful reminder that Palworld 1.0 moved some Alpha encounters. Recheck the field-boss level, coordinates, work suitability, and breeding pair after any patch that mentions Anubis, Alpha Pals, Anubis Dunes, Pal Spheres, work suitability, or breeding.

Common Anubis Capture Mistakes

• Following a level-47 guide: that is an Early Access value. The current fixed Alpha is level 55.
• Using Penking + Bushi: that former shortcut is no longer a current Anubis combination.
• Bringing only low-tier spheres: sphere quality matters, and a high-level Pal may reject an insufficient tier.
• Leaving the Grass Pal active at critical HP: elemental advantage can turn into an accidental knockout.
• Applying burn or poison too late: lingering damage can end the encounter after you stop attacking.
• Assuming all four listed items are guaranteed: species drops and Alpha rewards are separate possible-drop tables.
• Searching the whole desert: place a marker at (-134, -94) and approach south from Anubis Dunes fast travel.

Palworld Anubis FAQ

What level is the Anubis boss now?

The fixed Anubis field Alpha is level 55 in the current v1.0.4 data. Level 47 is a pre-1.0 answer.

What are the exact Anubis coordinates?

The current fixed field-boss coordinates are (-134, -94) at Anubis Dunes. Travel south from the named Anubis Dunes fast-travel point.

What element should you use against Anubis?

Use Grass. Anubis is Ground type, and Grass is its current weakness. Choose a Grass Pal that is durable enough for a level-55 Alpha rather than selecting on type alone.

Do you need one specific Pal Sphere to catch Anubis?

No single sphere tier is a universal guarantee. Use the strongest sphere your progression supports, lower Anubis’s HP safely, check the displayed catch chance, and bring multiple attempts. Capture power and world settings can change the result.

Can Anubis spawn outside the field-boss location?

Yes. Current data lists regular higher-level Anubis spawns in later areas as well as the fixed Alpha. The level-55 Anubis Dunes marker is recommended here because it provides a named route and exact coordinates.

Is Anubis worth keeping at a base?

Yes for players who need its current work profile: Handiwork 6, Mining 6, and Transporting 4. Those numbers make the captured Pal useful even if Guardian of the Desert is not central to your combat build.
