# How to Get Antique Bath Set: Level 16 and All 4 Pieces

How to unlock the Antique Bath Set in Palworld: technology level 16 for one point, all four pieces it gives you — Antique Bathtub, Braided Basket, Partition and Towel Rack — every recipe, and how to cover the 20 Wood, 20 Stone, 10 Fiber, 3 Cloth and 2 Ingot the full set costs.

The Antique Bath Set is a one-point technology unlock at level 16 that drops four pieces into your build menu — the Antique Bathtub, the Antique Braided Basket, the Antique Partition and the Antique Towel Rack. This guide covers the level and point cost, each piece's exact recipe, the full 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 20 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 10 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber), 3 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth) and 2 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) bill, and why this is not the technology that gives you a working bathroom.

## Antique Bath Set at a Glance

Four pieces for one technology point makes this the biggest haul on the level 16 row — the [Antique Mirror Set](https://palworld-db.com/guides/how-to-get-antique-mirror-set) sits on the same row for the same price and only gives three. Nothing in the set is a work station, so there is no power draw, no assigned Pal and nothing to feed once it is placed. The set has no parent technology either, so hitting character level 16 is the whole requirement. The catch is that two of the four recipes want refined materials, which makes this the first antique set that cannot be built straight out of a gathering trip.

## How to Unlock the Antique Bath Set

Reach character level 16, open the [Palworld Technology Tree](https://palworld-db.com/tech), and spend one normal point on the Antique Bath Set. All four pieces then live permanently in the Furniture tab of your build menu — there is no schematic to find and no boss gating it. The level 16 row asks for nine normal points if you want everything on it, which you will not have at 16, so know what you are passing up. Heat Resistant Pelt Armor at three points is what lets you survive the desert, and Mega Shield at two is a flat survivability upgrade for every fight after it. All three decoration sets on the row cost a single point each and lose nothing by waiting a few levels. Lockpicking Tool v1 does not compete at all — it is bought with an Ancient Technology Point from a tower boss, a completely separate pool.

| Level 16 technology | Points | Point type |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Antique Bath Set** | **1** | **Normal** |
| Antique Mirror Set | 1 | Normal |
| Faux Golden Foliage Set | 1 | Normal |
| [Heat Resistant Pelt Armor](https://palworld-db.com/item/FurArmorHeat) | 3 | Normal |
| [Mega Shield](https://palworld-db.com/item/Shield_02) | 2 | Normal |
| [Surfent Saddle](https://palworld-db.com/item/SkillUnlock_Serpent) | 1 | Normal |
| [Lockpicking Tool v1](https://palworld-db.com/item/Unlock_Picking_Tier1) | 1 | Ancient |

## All 4 Antique Bath Set Pieces and Build Costs

The four recipes split cleanly into two you can build the second you buy the technology and two you cannot. The Antique Partition costs 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood) flat and the Antique Braided Basket costs 10 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber) flat — both are single-material builds you can put up from base storage without touching a furnace. The Antique Bathtub and Antique Towel Rack are the ones that need prep, because both want [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) and [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth), which means an ore run and a wool supply first. Build order matters here: put the Partition and Basket down immediately so the room reads as furnished, then finish the tub and rack once your furnace has caught up. The Partition is quietly the most useful of the four, since it is the only piece in the set that splits a room without you having to build an actual wall.

| Piece | Materials | Refining needed | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 20 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 1 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth), 1 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) | Yes — Cloth and Ingot | The centrepiece and the heaviest build in the set at 20 Stone |
|  | 2 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth), 1 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) | Yes — Cloth and Ingot | Tiny footprint, but it eats two thirds of the set's entire Cloth bill |
|  | 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood) | None — raw wood | Free-standing screen that divides a room without a built wall |
|  | 10 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber) | None — raw fiber | The cheapest piece in the set, and decorative only — it is not a container |

> **Tip.** The Antique Braided Basket does **not** store anything. It sits in the Furniture tab, not Storage, and holds zero items — if you want something that actually takes inventory, the Antique Storage Set at level 10 gives you five working containers for the same one point.

## Total Material Cost for the Full Set

Building all four costs 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 20 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 10 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber), 3 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth) and 2 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot). Only 50 of those units are raw, which is why this set feels cheaper than it reads — the wood, stone and fiber together are about two minutes of gathering. The real work is the last two lines: three Cloth means six [Wool](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wool) through a Primitive Workbench, and two Ingot means four [Ore](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperOre) through a furnace. Start those two chains before you spend the point and the whole set goes up in one sitting. The full bill weighs 138, so you are never making two trips for it.

| Material | Qty needed | Refining needed | Where it comes from |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood) | 20 | None — raw | Chopped from trees, produced by a Logging Site, or bought for 12 Gold each from a Wandering Trader |
| [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone) | 20 | None — raw | Mined from rocks, produced by a Stone Pit, or bought for 12 Gold each from a Wandering Trader |
| [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber) | 10 | None — raw | Chopped from trees, or crafted 2 at a time from 1 Wood at a workbench |
| [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth) | 3 | Yes — 2 [Wool](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wool) each, so 6 Wool total | Woven at a Primitive Workbench from Wool sheared at a Ranch |
| [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) | 2 | Yes — 2 [Ore](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperOre) each, so 4 Ore total | Smelted in a Primitive Furnace from Ore mined off copper nodes |

### How to Get the 3 Cloth

Cloth is the line that stalls people, and the fix is a Ranch. Each Cloth is woven from two [Wool](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wool) at a Primitive Workbench, so the set needs six Wool total — and the Ranch unlocks all the way back at technology level 5 for 30 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 20 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone) and 30 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber). Park a wool Pal on it and the material becomes passive income you never think about again. Only three Pals in the game produce Wool at a Ranch: [Lamball](https://palworld-db.com/pal/lamball), [Melpaca](https://palworld-db.com/pal/melpaca) and [Cremis](https://palworld-db.com/pal/cremis). Lamball is the obvious pick because you almost certainly caught one in the first ten minutes, but Melpaca is the better long-term worker at rank 2, and it is not rare — it spawns across 270 locations on the map. If you would rather not wait, defeating or catching wool Pals in the field drops it directly at a 100% rate, and [Sweepa](https://palworld-db.com/pal/sweepa) gives the biggest stack per kill outside the boss-tier alpacas.

| Pal | Ranch rank | Wool per field drop | Why bring it |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Melpaca](https://palworld-db.com/pal/melpaca) | 2 | 2-5 at 100% | Best ranch worker for Wool and easy to find — 270 spawn locations |
| [Lamball](https://palworld-db.com/pal/lamball) | 1 | 1-3 at 100% | The most common Pal in the starting area at 351 spawn locations — free and immediate |
| [Cremis](https://palworld-db.com/pal/cremis) | 2 | 1-2 at 100% | Same ranch rank as Melpaca, smaller field drops — take whichever you catch first |
| [Sweepa](https://palworld-db.com/pal/sweepa) | Not a ranch Pal | 3-5 at 100% | Biggest reliable field drop — worth a detour if you need Wool right now |
| [Snugloo](https://palworld-db.com/pal/snugloo) | Not a ranch Pal | 2 at 100% | Drops Wool and works Mining 3, so it covers two lines of this bill at once |
| [Kingpaca](https://palworld-db.com/pal/kingpaca) | Not a ranch Pal | 5 at 100% | The single biggest Wool drop in the game — one kill nearly covers the whole set |

### How to Get the 2 Ingot

Two Ingot means four [Ore](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperOre) and one trip to a copper node. There are **1,632 copper ore nodes** across Palpagos Islands and you can see every one of them on the [Palworld interactive map with the copper ore layer on](https://palworld-db.com/map?layers=res_copperore) — pick whichever cluster is closest to your base, because four Ore is a fraction of a single node. Smelting happens at a Primitive Furnace, which unlocks at technology level 10 for 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 40 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone) and 3 Flame Organ, and it needs a Kindling Pal assigned or it will not light. [Foxparks](https://palworld-db.com/pal/foxparks) at Kindling rank 1 is enough for a two-ingot job, and [Incineram](https://palworld-db.com/pal/incineram) at Kindling 3 is the upgrade worth chasing since it also works Mining 3 and can dig the ore it is about to smelt. For a proper ore pipeline, see [How to Farm Ingots](https://palworld-db.com/guides/how-to-farm-ingots).

### Where to Farm the 20 Stone, 20 Wood and 10 Fiber

These three lines barely count as farming. Rock is the most abundant node type in the game — **8,157 rocks** plus another **4,286 small rocks** map-wide, all on the [Palworld map with the rock layer on](https://palworld-db.com/map?layers=res_rock) — and 20 Stone is one boulder. Wood and Fiber both come off trees, and there are **4,654 lumber nodes** on the [map's lumber layer](https://palworld-db.com/map?layers=res_lumber); if you come up short on Fiber you can also craft it two at a time from a single Wood at a workbench, which makes the Braided Basket effectively a 5-Wood build. The better answer at level 16 is to stop gathering by hand entirely: the Stone Pit and the Logging Site both unlock at technology level 7 and cost 10 [Paldium Fragment](https://palworld-db.com/item/Pal_crystal_S) each on top of raw materials, and between them this whole set builds itself out of base storage. Mining runs rank 1 to rank 8 across 57 Pals and Lumbering across 63, so the picks below are the ones actually catchable around this stage.

| Pal | Mining | Lumbering | Why bring it |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Bulldosu](https://palworld-db.com/pal/bulldosu) | 4 | — | Best Mining rank you can realistically catch at this level, and Transporting 3 hauls its own output |
| [Digtoise](https://palworld-db.com/pal/digtoise) | 4 | — | Same Mining rank as Bulldosu, and its rolling attack shreds nodes out in the field too |
| [Incineram](https://palworld-db.com/pal/incineram) | 3 | — | Mining 3 plus Kindling 3 — it mines the Ore and then fires the furnace that smelts it |
| [Eikthyrdeer](https://palworld-db.com/pal/eikthyrdeer) | — | 2 | The standard early Lumbering pick and a solid mount while you are gathering |
| [Dinossom](https://palworld-db.com/pal/dinossom) | — | 3 | Lumbering 3 with Planting 3 on the side for a berry plot in the same base |
| [Mossanda](https://palworld-db.com/pal/mossanda) | — | 4 | Lumbering 4 and Transporting 4 — the wood problem ends here |
| [Cattiva](https://palworld-db.com/pal/cattiva) | 1 | — | Slow, but it is free and it will chip away at a Stone Pit while you do something else |
| [Knocklem](https://palworld-db.com/pal/knocklem) | 7 | — | The endgame answer — Mining 7 and Transporting 7 on one Palbox slot |

## Antique Bath Set vs Bathroom Set

This trips up a lot of players, so it is worth being blunt: the Antique Bath Set does not include a toilet, a sink or anything you can interact with. Those live in a **separate** technology called the Bathroom Set, two levels later at 18, for its own one point. The Antique Bath Set gives you the tub, the screen, the basket and the towel rack; the Bathroom Set gives you the Antique Toilet, the Antique Toilet Paper Holder and the Antique Washstand. Both are pure decoration — the game's own blurb for this set says outright that it cannot be used to stay clean — so neither one changes hygiene, stamina or anything mechanical. If you are building a bathroom that actually looks like a bathroom, budget two technology points and buy both; the seven pieces were clearly designed to share a room. Buy the Bath Set first, since it lands two levels earlier and carries the tub.

| Technology | Level | Points | Pieces | Total materials |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Antique Bath Set** | **16** | **1** | **4** — , , ,  | 20 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 20 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 10 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber), 3 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth), 2 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot) |
| Bathroom Set | 18 | 1 | 3 — , ,  | 40 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 30 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 3 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot), 3 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber), 2 [Paldium Fragment](https://palworld-db.com/item/Pal_crystal_S), 1 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth) |

## How It Compares to the Other Antique Sets

Nine sets carry the Antique name, running from level 10 to level 26, plus the standalone Antique Dresser at 21, and every one of them costs a single technology point — so the only real question is what each point buys. At four pieces the Bath Set ties the Antique Lamp Set for second-most in the family, behind only the five-piece Antique Storage Set. It is also the second-cheapest antique set in the game at 55 total units, beaten only by the Antique Chair Set's 31 — for comparison, the Antique Storage Cabinet Set wants 171 units and the Antique Storage Set 185. The trade is that it is the first antique set where refined materials appear on more than one recipe, so it costs preparation rather than gathering. By pure value the Antique Storage Set at level 10 still wins the family outright — five pieces and every one of them a working container. On the level 16 row specifically, this is the better of the two antique buys: four pieces instead of three, and it does not touch your [Paldium Fragment](https://palworld-db.com/item/Pal_crystal_S) stock the way the mirrors do.

| Antique set | Level | Points | Pieces | Total materials |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Antique Storage Set | 10 | 1 | 5 | 155 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 23 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot), 7 Nail |

| Antique High Quality Furniture Set | 18 | 1 | 3 | 60 [Wood](https://palworld-db.com/item/Wood), 22 [Ingot](https://palworld-db.com/item/CopperIngot), 5 [Charcoal](https://palworld-db.com/item/Charcoal), 3 [Cloth](https://palworld-db.com/item/Cloth) |

| Antique Dresser | 21 | 1 (Ancient) | 1 | 30 [Stone](https://palworld-db.com/item/Stone), 20 [Wooden Board](https://palworld-db.com/item/Processed_Wood), 20 [Fiber](https://palworld-db.com/item/Fiber) |

## Where to Place Each Piece

The Antique Partition is the piece to place first, because it is the one that shapes the room. Stand it where a wall would go and you get a bathroom nook out of an open floor plan without spending a single wall piece against your structure budget. The Antique Bathtub wants a corner with its long side against a wall — dropped in open space it reads as clutter and your base Pals will path around it awkwardly. The Antique Towel Rack is small enough to tuck anywhere, and it looks best directly beside the tub. The Antique Braided Basket is filler; use it to break up an empty stretch of floor rather than treating it as storage. None of the four is a job station, so all of them are safe inside living quarters without pulling workers off your production lines. The one real constraint is the structure cap — four pieces is four slots against your base limit, so plan for it before you start decorating. For everything else competing for those slots, see the [list of all base structures](https://palworld-db.com/guides/list-of-all-base-structures).
