Eikthyrdeer
Eikthyrdeer was among the first Pals I acquired. Despite my progression, I continue using it in my team for its strength and speed as a mount.
This Neutral Pal employs its Guardian of the Forest Partner Skill, allowing the player to ride it. The ability includes a double jump and enhanced efficiency when cutting trees.
Eikthyrdeer’s attacks are surprisingly potent. While attempting to catch other Pals, I had to switch it out as it would knock them out before capture. Its strength increases with higher levels, unlocking abilities like Stone Cannon, Rock Lance, and Power Bomb.
This Pal is valuable for collecting wood around the base, with a work suitability level two for Lumbering.
