How to get the V2 armor in Palworld

The V2 armor is one of several new gear items that have been added to Palworld as part of the Home Sweet Home update, and you can craft it with the right resources.

Palworld is currently enjoying its second major video-game expansion of the year. V2 armor is directly influenced by the contents available in ULTRAKILL, and you can obtain this fantastic piece of gear to reinforce your build.

While you can buy the armor directly to add to your in-game inventory, crafting it will be a lot more convenient.

How to craft V2 armor in Palworld

The V2 armor, just like the V1 armor, comes in two variants: Normal and Legendary. The Normal variant can be crafted once you unlock it from the Technology tab. First, you’ll need to unlock its Blueprint, which will then allow you to craft it with the correct resources.

To unlock the Blueprint, you’ll need to reach Level 56. You’re going to require the following resources to complete the production process.

• 20 High Quality Cloth (refined version of the ordinary Cloth)
• 40 Pal Metal Ingot (you’ll first have to produce Ingots, and then refine them with specific resources)
• 40 Plasteel (an advanced material that can be crafted with the correct recipe and ingredients)

To produce the V2 armor, you’ll need either of the two following workbenches.

• Production Assembly Line II
• Advanced Civilization Workshop

Once done, you can then craft the V2 armor. You can also obtain the armor directly from the Medals Merchant. You’ll need 780 Dog Coins (you can also buy the V1 armor from the same source). The Arena shop also apparently has the armor on offer.

V2 armor stats in Palworld

The V2 armor is modeled after the New Peace machine, and it has a beefed-up shield that’s pretty hard to take down. But it doesn’t offer any self-repair system, unlike the V1 armor. Here are all the stats of the V2 armor in Palworld:

• Defense: 600
• HP: 215
• Additional Effects: Cold Resistant Lv. 2, Heat Resistant Lv. 2
• Rarity: Common
• Weight: 30

The Locked Gate arrived in ARC Raiders as part of The North Line update, and completing it will require a fair amount of coordination. You can run across it randomly during the Cold Snap update, but the conditions remain the same.

Like all map conditions, the Locked Gate isn’t available at all times. You’ll have to be lucky to find it on a map rotation. This guide will help you to complete the event successfully if you manage to start a raid while it’s available.

ARC Raiders Locked Gate event walkthrough

The Locked Gate event takes place on the Blue Gate map, but adds a custom modifier. The modifier restricts you from using any Raider Hatches and also blocks entry to the underground tunnels. All of this is part of an emergency shutdown protocol. Your job will be to find relevant security codes to open a locked gate (hence, the name).

To begin the quest, head to the Gate Control Room inside the Warehouse Complex. I have marked its location on the screenshot below, but it’s hard to miss. The Warehouse Complex is located between the central and the northern part of the Blue Gate map.

Head inside the room, and you’ll find four systems. When you try to interact with them, you’ll be asked for security codes. Finding the security codes is easy, as they will have a POI in their respective names.

If you’re trying to find the Pilgrim’s Peak code, you’ll have to head over to the location. All four POIs will be present on the Blue Gate map, but finding them can take a fair amount of time (not to mention the added dangers of ARC enemies and enemy Raiders).

Checkpoint Gate location

Once you have found all four codes, head back to the Gate Control Room. Use the four codes to unlock the central gate in the Checkpoint POI (marked on the screenshot above). You’ll find an unlocked gate, along with plenty of valuable items to loot inside. However, be highly cautious as enemy Raiders could try to ambush you for a free lot.
