You've probably spent hours breeding the perfect Anubis or a fleet of Jetragon, thinking you’re the king of the Palpagos Islands. Then you summon it. The screen dims, the music shifts into something far more sinister, and suddenly, your base is a crater. Bellanoir Libero doesn't care about your level 50 stats. Honestly, she exists specifically to humble players who think they’ve beaten the game. If you're looking for a casual stroll through a raid, turn back now. This fight is a DPS check, a mechanical nightmare, and a resource sink all rolled into one.
Beating her isn't just about "bringing strong Pals." It’s about understanding a very specific set of mechanics that Pocketpair baked into this encounter to punish sloppy play. You’re fighting a timer as much as a boss.
Why Bellanoir Libero is a Different Beast
Most bosses in Palworld are predictable. You dodge a predictable telegraph, you chip away at health, you win. Bellanoir Libero has 450,000 HP in her standard Libero form (and even more if you're masochistic enough to try the Ultra version). She is a Dark/Ice hybrid with a movepool that covers almost every elemental weakness you try to exploit.
The biggest mistake? Treating this like a standard wild Pal capture. You can't catch her during the raid. You are there for the egg she drops and the bragging rights. Because she’s a raid boss summoned via the Summoning Altar, the fight takes place in your base. This means if you aren't careful, she will delete your storage chests, your beds, and every structure you’ve spent weeks building. Build a dedicated "battle base" on a flat, empty plain. Do not, under any circumstances, summon her near your cake production line.
The Dragon Meta is a Trap (Mostly)
Logic says: she’s Dark type, so bring Dragons. While Jetragon and Chillet-boosted teams are popular, Bellanoir Libero carries Ice-type attacks specifically designed to swat dragons out of the sky. Beam Slice and Nightmare Ray are the killers. If you rely solely on Jetragons, you’ll watch them freeze and shatter in the first two minutes.
The real secret? Chillet. But not just any Chillet. You need a Chillet that has been fully condensed and leveled. Chillet’s partner skill applies Dragon damage to the player's attacks while mounted. This is the "Gobfin Strategy" variant. By stacking four 4-star Gobfins in your party (which massively buff the player's attack power) and riding a Chillet, your legendary assault rifle becomes a railgun.

You become the primary damage dealer. Your Pals are just there to draw aggro and chip away.
The Second Phase Nightmare
At around 10-15% health, Bellanoir Libero changes. She enters a "burn" phase where she recovers some HP and switches her element to Ice. This is where most runs fail. If you brought a pure Dragon team, you are now at a massive disadvantage. You need a swap.
Keep a team of high-DPS Fire types in your PC box right next to the Altar. Ragnahawk or Blazamut are the gold standard here. Ragnahawk is particularly useful because, like Chillet, it changes the player’s damage type—this time to Fire. When she goes white and the ground starts freezing, you jump off the Chillet, swap to the Ragnahawk, and keep firing.
Preparation Checklist: No Room for Error
If you go in under-prepared, you're just wasting a slab. The Libero slabs take time to farm in high-level dungeons (like those in the snowy Astral Mountains or the Sakurajima expansion areas). Don't throw them away.
- The Altar Placement: Build it in the dead center of a flat base area. Clear all trees and rocks.
- The Palbox Trick: You can have 15 to 20 Pals out at once depending on your world settings. Don't just pick randoms. You need a mix of "tank" Pals to soak hits and "turret" Pals.
- Food Buffs: This is non-negotiable. Eat Mozzarina Cheeseburgers or Eikthyrdeer Loco Moco for a 20% attack boost. Feed your Pals Marinated Mushrooms.
- Player Gear: Legendary Assault Rifle is the minimum requirement. Bring at least 3,000 rounds of ammo. You will use most of them. If you have the Rocket Launcher, use it only to stagger her when she starts her big AoE animations.
Survival Tactics During the Chaos
The fight is a visual mess. Purple fire, ice beams, and explosions everywhere. You have to stay mobile. Bellanoir Libero loves to teleport directly behind the player. If you see her disappear, dodge immediately.

One thing people get wrong is the "Aggro Management." Bellanoir tends to focus on whatever is hitting her hardest. If you are using the Gobfin/Chillet build, that's you. Use the "command" wheel to tell your Pals to be aggressive, but be ready to withdraw them into the Palbox for a second if you see her charging a massive purple orb. That orb will one-shot almost anything it touches.
The Best Pals for the Raid
- Jetragon: Still useful for raw stats, but keep them away from the Ice beams.
- Astegon: Surprisingly tanky. If you breed one with Legend, Musclehead, and Ferocious, it can stay in the fight longer than most.
- Anubis: Great for dodging. Its side-step animation makes it live longer against the Beam Slice.
- Blazamut: Your MVP for the final 20% of the fight. Its Fire attacks will melt her Ice shield.
Honestly, the most effective "cheese" strategy involves building a base full of Campfires around the Altar, but that was largely patched to be less effective. Now, it’s all about the raw DPS of your active party.
The Logistics of the Battle Base
Don't use your main base. I've seen players lose their entire breeding farm because a stray Nightmare Bloom hit their wooden structures.
Go to a wide-open area. The desert or the flat plateaus in the starting windswept hills work well. Build a Palbox, build the Altar, and maybe a few defensive walls outside the base perimeter to catch some of the projectiles. If you put walls inside the base, she will just destroy them and create navigation glitches for your Pals.
Keep a repair bench nearby, but far enough away that it won't get hit. You’ll likely need to repair your armor mid-fight if you take a stray hit. The Pal Metal Armor (Legendary) is basically a requirement to survive more than two hits from her.

What Happens When You Win?
Once she finally disintegrates, she’ll drop a Bellanoir Libero (Huge Dark Egg). This is the only way to get her on your team. You also get the Ancient Civilization Core, which is vital for late-game crafting, and potentially a Multiclimate Shirt to help with temperature resistance.
The Pal you hatch is incredible. She has a unique active skill, Siren of the Void, which is arguably one of the best clearing moves in the game. But remember: the Bellanoir you hatch will be much smaller and have "normal" HP compared to the raid boss version. She’s a glass cannon, not a tank.
Actionable Steps for Your Next Attempt
Success in this raid is 90% preparation and 10% execution. If you fail, it's almost always because your DPS was too low or your Pals died too fast.
- Step 1: Farm four Gobfins. Use the Essence Condenser to get them to 4 stars. Their "Angry Shark" skill stacks even when they aren't the active Pal.
- Step 2: Breed a Chillet with the Vanguard and Stronghold Strategist passive traits. This buffs your stats while you ride it.
- Step 3: Stockpile enough Pal Metal Ingots and Carbon Fiber to craft 2,000+ Assault Rifle rounds.
- Step 4: Set up your "Kill Zone" base. Minimum structures.
- Step 5: Summon her at daybreak. Fighting her at night makes it even harder to see her teleport animations.
Beating Bellanoir Libero is the unofficial graduation ceremony for Palworld players. Once you’ve done it, everything else—including the Tower Bosses—feels like a warm-up. Just watch the ground, keep your finger on the dodge roll, and don't stop shooting.
