◇ Rarity · Common — the five-job base worker

Tanzee is the Grass-element Pal at No. 023 — a small monkey that is, quietly, one of the most useful base workers you can catch this early. Five Work Suitabilities in one Pal, plus a party trick: it can hand you an assault rifle mid-fight.

Base values before IVs, passives and condensing. An 80/70/70 line is unremarkable — Tanzee earns its keep at the workbench and the plantation, not in a brawl.

Work & drops

Work suitabilities
Handiwork Lv 1 Planting Lv 1 Gathering Lv 1 Lumbering Lv 1 Transporting Lv 1

Five level-1 jobs — Handiwork, Planting, Gathering, Lumbering and Transporting. No single one is high, but the coverage is unmatched this early. One Tanzee keeps a whole starter base ticking.

Drops
Mushroom

Mushroom for early cooking — modest, but Tanzee was never about the drops.

Partner skill: Cheery Rifle

An unassuming base worker that turns into a burst of firepower when you need it.

EffectWhen activated, Tanzee fires an assault rifle at nearby enemies for a limited time — a short, welcome spike of ranged damage.
At baseIts real value is the day job: five suitabilities means one Tanzee covers work no single early Pal otherwise does.
Why it mattersCoverage. A base runs on having every job filled, and Tanzee fills five of them at once, freeing your other slots for specialists.

Active skills

Tanzee learns its attack kit as it levels — skill text straight from the game:

Lv 1Wind Cutter — fires a fast blade of wind that flies straight ahead.
Lv 7Bog Blast — hurls sticky mud at an enemy.
Lv 15Seed Machine Gun — sprays a volley of hard seeds at enemies in front.
Lv 22Seed Mine — launches a deadly seed. If it hits an enemy, the seed explodes.
Lv 30Stone Cannon — digs up a boulder and hurls it at an enemy.
Lv 40Grass Tornado — launches twin tornadoes at the enemy.
Lv 50Solar Blast — charges solar energy, then fires a powerful beam.

The story of Tanzee

Tanzee is endlessly busy and endlessly cheerful about it, the kind of Pal that seems happiest with a job in its hands. Left to itself it forages and fiddles with whatever it finds; put it on a base and that same restless curiosity turns into a worker that will pick up any task going. The assault rifle is, admittedly, a surprise.

Paraphrased from Tanzee's in-game Paldeck entry.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 3. The Tanzee has reorganised my storage chest. I did not ask it to. It seems pleased.

Day 8. Assigned it to the plantation and it also started crafting, hauling, and chopping wood on the side. I think it just can't sit still.

Day 17. It produced an assault rifle in a tight fight and I have decided not to ask where a monkey keeps one.

Tanzee, answered

Where do you find and catch Tanzee?

Tanzee turns up in the Windswept Hills, the western Sea Breeze Archipelago and Ice Wind Island, day or night. It's passive but will fight back if you start it. Weaken one and throw a regular Pal Sphere. A possible Alpha also waits at the end of the Hillside Cavern.

What does Cheery Rifle do?

When activated, Tanzee fires an assault rifle at nearby enemies for a limited time — a short, welcome spike of ranged damage.

Is Tanzee good?

Early on, yes, for its role: Five level-1 jobs — Handiwork, Planting, Gathering, Lumbering and Transporting. Its stats are modest, so lean on the partner skill and trade up by midgame.

How do you breed Tanzee?

It has no unique combo — pairs like Cattiva with Mau, or Chikipi with Melpaca produce it. Breed repeatedly to stack good passive skills onto one you like.

What does Tanzee drop?

It drops Mushroom. Mushroom for early cooking — modest, but Tanzee was never about the drops.

Can you ride Tanzee?

No. Tanzee isn't a mount — it's a base worker and a burst-fire party member. For an early ride, look at Direhowl or Rushoar.
