Stats & how they vary

HP 80

Attack 100

Defense 80

Work speed 100

Melee 130, Shot 100, Stamina 100. Rarity value 3, Size M. The four displayed stats use Attack = Shot 100, but its melee is a hard-hitting 130 — Loupmoon wants to be in your face. Type matchup. Dark is strong against Neutral and weak to Dragon — bring a Dragon Pal to catch it. Work speed 100 is the series default.

Type matchup · Dark

Passives0–4 traits (e.g. Swift, Ferocious, Lucky) — the biggest controllable swing, inherited through breeding. 1.0 adds powerful World Tree passives with trade-offs (e.g. +50% attack for weaker defense).

Work & drops

Work suitabilities

Handiwork Lv 2

Its only work line — but because it is nocturnal it keeps crafting through the night when day-active Pals stop, which makes it a quietly efficient base worker.

Drops

Bone

Bone ×1 (100%). Bone feeds early recipes and cement.

Partner skill: Dark Gleam Strike

The practical breakdown of Dark Gleam Strike.

On-call burstActivate it and Loupmoon leaps at your target with a boosted Jumping Claw — a strong, targeted hit on demand.

Scales with condensationThe Jumping Claw multiplier climbs from ×1.1 up to ×2.5 as you condense it.

Why it mattersA pocket burst-damage button pairs well with Loupmoon's own high melee, making it a genuine early Dark attacker.

The story of Loupmoon

"It doesn't hate the sun, but its horns itch when sunlight touches them — so it keeps to the moonlight, where its crescent horns grow."

Loupmoon is a creature of the night by preference, not menace: sunlight simply makes its moon-grown horns itch. The Paldeck leans into the lunar imagery. In play it is one of the better early Dark Pals — a heavy melee hitter, an on-call Jumping Claw, and the rare worker that crafts while the rest of your base sleeps.

Field notes

— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 12. Only see these after dark, always in pairs. Big claws.

Day 13. Its Jumping Claw button hits hard — a nice burst on top of my own attacks.

Day 15. Handiwork Lv 2, and it keeps working at night. My benches never stop now.

Day 20. Bred it with a Sweepa and got the frost version. Moonlight became snowlight.
