Imagine being shackled to mediocre Pals, forced to endure their lackluster passive skills with no recourse! For eons (or at least since Palworld’s launch), players suffered this fate—until the Pal Labor Research Lab exploded onto the scene at Level 20. This isn't just a building; it’s a REVOLUTIONARY second skill tree that shatters the chains of passive skill limitations! 🚀 Suddenly, every Pal can be sculpted into a hyper-specialized, base-dominating titan. But beware: with great power comes… astronomical resource costs? 😱 Who wouldn't trade their last Paldium Fragment for such god-like control? The real question is, can you afford not to build it immediately?
