All Four Yakumo Effigy Locations in Palworld

Published 9 min read

There are four Yakumo Effigies in Palworld: two on the Palpagos-side map and two on the separate World Tree map. The fastest way to find them is to navigate by landmarks first, then use the approximate coordinates as a check. The four locations are the circular stone structure above The Oculus Gate in Feybreak, a shrine on the Sunreach floating islands, a lakeside building near Lacrymal Shoal on the World Tree, and the Anubis statue outside Abandoned Laboratory. Bring cold-weather gear for Feybreak, a flying mount for the elevated stops, and a combat-ready team for the World Tree.

Where are all four Yakumo Effigies?

This table is a quick route index. Coordinates can differ by a few points between map tools and guides, so match the landmark and terrain before adjusting your position.

# Map and region Landmark and route Approximate coordinates Main preparation
1 Palpagos, Feybreak The Oculus Gate, Tower in Sight; climb or fly to the circular stone structure above the fast-travel point. -1123, -1388 (another map lists -1122, -1387) Cold-resistance gear; flying mount recommended
2 Palpagos, Sunreach floating islands / Enchanted Firmament From Sunreach Watchtower or the Enchanted Firmament fast-travel point, travel north to the small shrine on the elevated island. -281, -1459 (another guide lists -280, -1460) Flying mount makes the climb easier
3 World Tree From Gilded City Ruins Watchtower, travel west to the isolated building beside a lake; the effigy is beside its entrance. -1910, 1363 (reported alternatives include -1936, 1376 and -1910, 1365) Prepared combat team; World Tree map grid
4 World Tree tundra Go to Abandoned Laboratory and climb the Anubis statue outside the main entrance; the effigy is on or between the statue’s legs. -1945, 1611 (another report lists -1951, 1623) Combat preparation; World Tree map grid

How do I reach each Yakumo Effigy?

1. Feybreak: the circular structure above The Oculus Gate

Use the Palpagos map and warp to The Oculus Gate, Tower in Sight. The effigy is not at ground level beside the fast-travel point. Look upward for the circular stone structure suspended above the area, then climb the surrounding rock or use a flying Pal to reach it. The elevated structure is the reliable visual target when the coordinate marker appears slightly offset.

Feybreak is a cold biome. Equip cold-resistance clothing before leaving the fast-travel point, because environmental damage can interrupt a climb and force a retreat. A flying mount is particularly useful here: it avoids the steep approach and lets you inspect the upper ring from several angles. If you are using a ground mount, circle the structure and look for the safest ledge rather than trying to jump directly from the tower.

2. Sunreach: the shrine on the floating island

Start at Sunreach Watchtower or the Enchanted Firmament fast-travel point. Travel north toward the small shrine on an elevated island. The shrine is the important clue; the effigy can be easy to miss if you search only at the base of the floating landmass.

The vertical gap makes a flying Pal the simplest option. Without one, use nearby ledges and stamina-restoring pauses instead of committing to a long glide. Approach the shrine from above or from its broadest side, then check around the structure rather than expecting the effigy to stand in the open center of the island.

3. World Tree: the lakeside building near Lacrymal Shoal

Switch to the World Tree map before following this route. From Gilded City Ruins Watchtower, travel west to the isolated building beside a lake. The location is commonly associated with the Lacrymal Shoal area. The Yakumo Effigy is positioned by the building’s entrance, so inspect the doorway and the ground immediately around it.

World Tree areas contain strong enemies, making this a poor detour for an unprepared party. Unlock the nearby fast-travel point first when possible, then approach with a team that can handle combat rather than relying on a mount to outrun everything. If hostile Pals draw you away from the building, clear the entrance area before searching; the effigy’s small silhouette can be obscured during a fight.

4. World Tree tundra: the Anubis statue outside Abandoned Laboratory

Travel to Abandoned Laboratory on the World Tree tundra. Exit or remain outside the main entrance and look for the large Anubis statue. Climb the statue itself: the effigy is placed on or between its legs, not inside the laboratory.

Use the statue as your primary navigation reference because the coordinate readings reported for this stop vary more than a single map marker may suggest. The tundra combines exposure with dangerous enemies, so arrive with appropriate survival equipment and a combat team. A flying mount can help you reach the statue’s upper surfaces, but it is still worth checking the legs and the base from ground level after landing.

What does a Yakumo Effigy do?

Yakumo Effigies are offered at a Statue of Power. Their effect is to raise the odds that wild Pals will roll higher-tier Passive Skills. This improves the quality of passive-skill rolls you encounter; it does not directly guarantee a particular skill or make every wild Pal spawn with a top-tier passive.

Do not confuse this item with the Lifmunk Effigy. Lifmunk Effigies affect capture rate, while Yakumo Effigies concern the passive skills rolled by wild Pals. If your goal is to catch Pals more easily, donating a Yakumo Effigy is not the relevant upgrade.

Several July 2026 guides report that the four donations together provide up to +4% Rainbow Fortune, with each effigy contributing one rank. An unofficial database describes a four-rank ladder of +1% per rank and +4% at the top. PinDrop’s location guide notes that the per-effigy increase is not officially documented, and no official Pocketpair numeric specification for Rainbow Fortune has been published. Treat +4% as a commonly reported, unofficial figure rather than a guaranteed developer-stated value.

What should I prepare before collecting them?

Use the correct map and coordinate grid

The first two stops use the ordinary Palpagos-side map. The last two use the separate World Tree coordinate grid. A Palpagos map will not place World Tree coordinates correctly, even when the numbers look plausible. Select the World Tree map layer before checking either World Tree location.

Plan for cold and elevation

Feybreak requires cold-resistance gear. Sunreach and the Feybreak structure are elevated, so a flying mount removes much of the climbing risk and shortens the search. If you do not have a suitable flyer, carry enough stamina-restoring food and identify a safe landing ledge before attempting a long ascent.

Prepare for World Tree combat

The World Tree stops are not peaceful sightseeing points. Bring a combat-ready party, healing supplies, and equipment appropriate to the enemies in the area. Unlock nearby fast-travel points whenever you pass them; doing so gives you a recovery route if a fight or environmental hazard forces you to withdraw.

Navigate by landmark before coordinate

Coordinates in guides are approximate rather than a universal pixel-perfect address. Map tools can round positions differently, and the reported points for each effigy differ by one or several coordinate units. Use the named tower, shrine, building, lake, statue, or laboratory as the search anchor, then use the coordinate range to confirm that you are in the right sector.

Should I collect all four before offering any?

That is the safest approach if you care about achievement behavior. Guides disagree about whether an achievement can fail to unlock when one or more effigies have already been offered instead of being held together. PinDrop reports that remaining effigies can still be collected after donations, while AllThingsHow warns that an achievement may require the complete set to be in your possession at once. Because this behavior can change between versions, collect the complete set first and donate afterward.

  1. Visit all four locations and pick up each Yakumo Effigy.
  2. Confirm that all four are present in your inventory before interacting with a Statue of Power.
  3. Make a backup save or otherwise preserve your current game state if your platform and mode support it.
  4. At a Statue of Power, choose the interaction that offers Yakumo Effigies and confirm the donation.
  5. Check the resulting upgrade or Rainbow Fortune rank, then continue with any remaining Statue of Power improvements.

Collecting first also makes troubleshooting easier: if an achievement does not trigger, you know the issue is not simply that one effigy remains uncollected in a distant map layer.

What should I do if the coordinates do not match?

  • Check the map layer: World Tree coordinates only make sense on the World Tree map. Return to the Palpagos layer for Feybreak and Sunreach.
  • Look for the landmark: At The Oculus Gate, search above the fast-travel point; at Sunreach, search the elevated shrine; near Lacrymal Shoal, search the lakeside entrance; at Abandoned Laboratory, search the Anubis statue.
  • Allow for a small offset: The published positions are approximate, with alternate reports differing by a few points. Move around the structure instead of abandoning the location when the marker is not exact.
  • Check vertical position: Two of the effigies are elevated. A horizontal coordinate match can still leave you on the ground below the actual collectible.
  • Search the entrance and statue base: The World Tree effigies are placed beside recognizable structures, not necessarily at the center of the coordinate reading.

If an effigy is not visible after matching the landmark, leave the immediate area, reload the map or world if your version permits it, and return from the same fast-travel point. Avoid donating any effigy until you have verified that the full set has been collected if an achievement matters to you.

How should I use the four effigies after collecting them?

Once the set is secured, visit a Statue of Power and use its donation interface to offer the Yakumo Effigies. The donation is an upgrade investment: it improves the odds of higher-tier passive-skill rolls on wild Pals rather than changing capture mechanics. Keep the distinction in mind when deciding whether the upgrade supports your current goal, such as hunting better passive combinations or simply filling the Paldeck.

Because the exact per-effigy Rainbow Fortune value is not officially specified, record the rank shown by your own game version rather than assuming every guide’s percentage applies identically. Version-sensitive achievement behavior and unofficial percentage figures are separate issues: the locations are the stable part, while the reward display and achievement handling may change with updates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Yakumo Effigies respawn after I pick them up?

No recurring respawn cycle is documented for these collectibles. Treat each location as a one-time pickup and use a checklist so you do not revisit a stop expecting a second copy.

Does the reported Rainbow Fortune percentage guarantee a better passive skill?

No. The commonly cited percentage describes an increase in odds, not a guaranteed passive tier or a guaranteed skill combination. A wild Pal can still roll an ordinary result after the upgrade.

Is there a separate level requirement for collecting a Yakumo Effigy?

The location guides do not list a special level gate for the item itself. Practical access is limited by the cold, vertical terrain and the powerful enemies around the World Tree stops.

Why do map tools disagree by several coordinate points?

Different guides can round the same position differently, and some tools display map layers or vertical locations with slight offsets. Use the named landmark as the deciding evidence and treat the numbers as a search area.
