How to breed Necromus in Palworld

Necromus can’t be bred from other Pals: only a male and a female Necromus make another one. Catch it first: it spawns only as an alpha, from Lv 60. After that, every Necromus egg is a Necromus.
Its breeding power is 190. The formula never makes Necromus, but as a parent it counts like any Pal: the lower the parents’ powers, the rarer the egg.
Why only its own kind
Some Pals are left out of the breeding formula: most legendaries, raid and tower bosses and a few others. No pair of other Pals ever makes them, however close their breeding power is. A male and a female Necromus make a Necromus egg; everything else Necromus breeds with makes another Pal (below).
Shortest chain from early-game Pals
No chain of breeds reaches Necromus: catch Necromus itself first.
Where to catch Necromus and its parents
- NecromusSpawns only as an alpha, from Lv 60. Map
Passives
Every Necromus is born with Legend and Lord of the Underworld, bred or caught; it doesn’t need to be inherited.
- LegendAttack +20% Defense +20% Movement Speed increases 20%
- Lord of the Underworld30% increase in Dark attack damage.
To get the passives you want, pick them in the Breeding path: it finds which of your Pals carry them and the shortest route.

Mutated eggs never hatch Necromus
Necromus isn’t on the game’s list of Pals a mutated egg can hatch, which leaves out legendaries, raid and tower Pals, Terraria monsters and a few variants. About 1 in 100 Breeding Farm eggs (1 in 33 with Extravagant Vegetable Cake) is mutated, but never into Necromus.
What Necromus’s mutated eggs hatch
Two Necromus make a mutated egg of Eidrolon Ignis. With other partners, Necromus’s mutated eggs can hatch 87 different Pals. The rarest, with the partner that gives each one most often:
- Aegidronwith Aegidron: 100% of mutants, 1 in 33 eggs
- Eidrolon Igniswith Jormuntide Ignis: 100% of mutants, 1 in 33 eggs
- Jormuntide Igniswith Selyne: 100% of mutants, 1 in 33 eggs
- Tetroise Primowith Blazamut: 95% of mutants, 1 in 35 eggs
- Knocklem Igniswith Pierdon Cryst: 79% of mutants, 1 in 42 eggs
- Ophydiawith Faleris: 100% of mutants, 1 in 33 eggs
- Dualith Noctwith Univolt Cryst: 79% of mutants, 1 in 42 eggs
- Knocklemwith Celesdir: 53% of mutants, 1 in 63 eggs
