The first Palworld Raid has arrived, and the survival game's community is shouting one base-saving tip from the rooftops: "Bellanoir will destroy everything you build"
Palworld's first Raid boss has just gone live, and players are warning others from initiating the fight too close to base, lest they be torn to shreds by Bellanoir.
A new Palworld patch released earlier today introduced a litany of impressive quality-of-life fixes, but it's the debut of Raid boss Bellanoir that's understandably headlining the new update.

Bellanoir has a devastating laser beam attack which apparently tears through buildings "like butter" – the original post author's base was three stories high before Bellanoir rocked up and promptly smashed everything to smithereens. Oh, and if you're thinking about summoning Bellanoir mid-air and causing it to die from fall damage, the boss seems to be invulnerable to
