Is Gobfin Worth Using?

Early keep

Water/Dark Pal with Lv.2 Watering — an early water worker found near beaches and rivers.

Keep if

  • Gobfin brings Lv.2 Handiwork, Lv.2 Watering — enough to staff early crafting and hauling before specialists arrive.
  • Common near the starting routes, so you can fill a party or base slot without a long hunt.
  • Partner skill — Splash — A weak water attack useful for applying the Wet status.

Skip if

  • Loses tempo into Dragon / Electric matchups — bring a counter before hard fights.
  • Combat and work levels fall off fast; do not spend rare cakes or spheres building it for late game.
  • Narrow job coverage — pair with other Pals if your base needs mining, kindling, or farming too.
