How to Beat Saya & Selyne in Palworld 1.0: Boss Fight Guide

Bring Dragon-type Pals, gear up with Plasteel Armor, and reach Level 55 before you challenge Saya & Selyne at Moonflower Tower. This boss fight punishes underleveled squads fast, so preparation matters more than reflexes here.

Where to Find Saya & Selyne

Saya & Selyne wait inside Moonflower Tower at coordinates (-595, 206) on Sakurajima Island. You cannot walk in and challenge them right away.

You first need to defeat Victor & Shadowbeak in the Astral Mountains. Once that boss is down, head to the boat beside Moonflower Tower and speak with the Ex-Moonflower Genin standing there.

The Genin hands you two short quests. Finish both, and the game unlocks the objective to challenge Saya & Selyne inside the tower.

Saya & Selyne Boss Stats and Fight Overview

Saya leads the fight while Selyne, a Dark/Normal-type Pal, fights beside her. That typing combination makes this one of the harder tower battles in the current build.

Both bosses lean on long-range attacks that hit hard and are tricky to dodge on foot. Once health drops to around the halfway mark, the arena layout changes. A total of five poison puddles spawn across the battlefield, with one sitting dead center and the remaining four tucked into each corner. Walking through any puddle chips away at your health and at any ground-based Pal fighting alongside you. Hovering Pals ignore this poison entirely, which makes them a strong pick once the second phase starts.

Best Pals to Beat Saya & Selyne

Selyne’s Dark/Normal typing means Dragon-type attacks deal 20% extra damage against her, so building your team around Dragon skills pays off immediately.

Pals worth bringing into this fight include:

  • Astegon
  • Jormuntide
  • Xenogard
  • Relaxaurus
  • Quivern

Recall your active Pal the moment Selyne winds up a ranged or area attack, since letting them tank unnecessary hits shortens the fight for no reason. Watch for Selyne charging up Moonlight Beam. As soon as you spot it, hop onto your Pal and head toward one of the arena’s edges to get clear of the blast radius. If Selyne locks the beam onto your Pal rather than you, pull it back before the attack fires off.

Surviving the Saya & Selyne Poison Phase

The poison pools that spawn at 50% health are the biggest threat in the back half of this fight, and most deaths happen here rather than in the opening minutes.

Keep these points in mind once phase two starts:

  • Skip dodge rolling near the pools, since a stray roll can land you directly in the poison.
  • Lean on hovering Pals whenever you can, as they take no damage from the pools.
  • Plasteel Armor is the better call in this fight; it holds up far more damage than the standard Pal Metal Armor.
  • If you are running firearms or other ranged weapons, aim at Saya specifically, since hits on her land as critical damage.

Beat Saya & Selyne once and you receive the Key Sphear of Lust. You need this item later at the World Tree to challenge the game’s final bosses, Zenara & Astralym.
