How to Get Bathroom Set: Level 18 and All 3 Pieces

The Bathroom Set is a one-point technology unlock at level 18 that adds three pieces to your build menu — the Antique Toilet, the Antique Toilet Paper Holder and the Antique Washstand. This guide covers the level and point cost, each piece's exact recipe, the full 40 Wood, 30 Stone, 3 Ingot, 3 Fiber, 2 Paldium Fragment and 1 Cloth bill, and why none of it actually works.

Bathroom Set at a Glance

Three pieces for one technology point, with no parent technology to buy first — hitting character level 18 is the entire requirement. Nothing in the set is a work station, so there is no power draw, no assigned Pal and nothing to maintain once it is placed. The set's own in-game blurb is blunt about what you are buying: it cannot be used for its original purpose. The toilet does not flush, the washstand does not wash and none of the three interacts with hygiene, stamina or any other stat. What makes this set awkward to build on the spot is the material spread — six different materials across three small recipes, and two of them (Ingot and Cloth) need refining before you can place a single piece.

How to Unlock the Bathroom Set

Reach character level 18, open the Palworld Technology Tree, and spend a single point on the Bathroom Set. All three pieces then live permanently in the Furniture tab of your build menu — there is no schematic to hunt down and no boss gating it. The level 18 row is one of the more expensive rows in the early tree: buying everything on it costs 15 points, and you will not be anywhere near that at level 18. Cold Resistant Pelt Armor at three points is the one that actually changes where you can go, since it is what lets you survive the snowfields at night, and Mega Glider at two flatly improves every traversal you do from here on. The Cooler matters if your food is spoiling, but it also wants 20 Ingot and 5 Ice Organ to build, so it is a two-step commitment. Both furniture sets on the row cost one point each and lose nothing by waiting five levels — buy them when the row's real upgrades are already paid for.

Level 18 technology	Points	What it gives you
Bathroom Set	1	3 decorative pieces — toilet, paper holder, washstand
Antique High Quality Furniture Set	1	3 decorative pieces — Antique Curtain, Antique Globe, Antique Stove
Cold Resistant Pelt Armor	3	The armor that makes the snowfields survivable — the row's priority buy
Cooler	2	Base structure that slows food spoilage; costs 20 Ingot, 20 Stone, 5 Ice Organ
Mega Glider	2	Straight upgrade to your glider — better travel for the rest of the run
Ring of Mercy	2	Accessory that stops you killing Pals you meant to catch
Pengullet Lux's Rocket Launcher	2	Pal gear — lets Pengullet Lux fire as a shoulder-mounted launcher
Tocotoco's Gloves	2	Pal gear for Tocotoco

All 3 Bathroom Set Pieces and Build Costs

The three recipes are wildly uneven, and knowing that saves you a wasted trip. The Antique Toilet Paper Holder is the throwaway — 1 Ingot and 3 Fiber, four units total, and you can place it the second you buy the technology. The Antique Toilet is the heavy one at 20 Stone plus 10 Wood and 2 Ingot, which is two thirds of the set's entire Ingot bill on one piece. The Antique Washstand is the odd one out: it is the only piece in the set that wants Paldium Fragment and the only one that wants Cloth, and at 30 Wood it is also the largest single wood draw. Build order should follow that split — put the holder and the toilet up first, then come back for the washstand once you have Paldium and a Cloth spare, because it is the piece most likely to stall you.

Piece	Materials	Refining needed	What it is
Antique Toilet	20 Stone, 10 Wood, 2 Ingot	Yes — Ingot	The centrepiece and the heaviest build in the set at 32 units
Antique Washstand	30 Wood, 10 Stone, 2 Paldium Fragment, 1 Cloth	Yes — Cloth	Sink and counter in one; the only piece needing Paldium Fragment
Antique Toilet Paper Holder	1 Ingot, 3 Fiber	Yes — Ingot	Four units total — the cheapest build in the entire set

Total Material Cost for the Full Set

Building all three costs 40 Wood, 30 Stone, 3 Ingot, 3 Fiber, 2 Paldium Fragment and 1 Cloth — 79 units and 229.5 carry weight, so the whole bill fits in one trip. Seventy-three of those units are raw wood, stone and fiber, which is a few minutes of gathering or a single afternoon of your base workers doing it for you. The four units that actually gate the set are the last three lines: 3 Ingot means 6 Ore through a furnace, 1 Cloth means 2 Wool through a workbench, and the 2 Paldium Fragment means a paldium node or a merchant. Start those three chains before you spend the technology point and the set goes up in one sitting.

Material	Qty needed	Refining needed	Where it comes from
Wood	40	None — raw	Chopped from trees, produced by a Logging Site, or bought for 12 Gold each from a wandering merchant
Stone	30	None — raw	Mined from rocks, produced by a Stone Pit, or bought for 12 Gold each from a wandering merchant
Ingot	3	Yes — 2 Ore each, so 6 Ore total	Smelted in a Primitive Furnace from Ore mined off copper nodes
Fiber	3	None — raw	Chopped from trees, or crafted 2 at a time from 1 Wood at a workbench
Paldium Fragment	2	None — mined directly	Blue paldium nodes, expedition payouts, field drops, or 70 Gold each from a wandering merchant
Cloth	1	Yes — 2 Wool	Woven at a Primitive Workbench from Wool sheared at a Ranch

How to Get the 2 Paldium Fragment

Two Paldium Fragment is a rounding error against how much of it exists — there are 711 paldium ore nodes across Palpagos Islands, and you can see every one of them on the Palworld interactive map with the paldium ore layer on. They are the glowing blue rocks, they are usually near water, and a single node gives more than this whole set needs. If you have already beaten the Grass or Forest tower bosses, the two easiest expeditions both pay Paldium at a 100% rate and pay it in bulk — Secret Realm of the Forest returns 20-40 fragments per 30-minute run and Verdant Hollow returns 10-30 for the same half hour, which means the set's requirement is covered while you are doing something else entirely. Failing both, a wandering merchant sells fragments outright at 70 Gold each, so 140 Gold ends the problem. Paldium also turns up as a field drop in the Snowfields, Desert, Mount Obsidian, Sakurajima, Feybreak and Sunreach Isle, and it is one of the more common things you pull up as junk while fishing in the Grasslands.

How to Get the 3 Ingot

Three Ingot means six Ore and one stop at a copper node. There are 1,632 copper ore nodes on the islands and they are all on the Palworld map with the copper ore layer on — take whichever cluster is nearest your base, because six Ore is a fraction of one node. Smelting happens at a Primitive Furnace, which unlocks at technology level 10 for 20 Wood, 40 Stone and 3 Flame Organ, and it will not light without a Kindling Pal assigned. For a three-ingot job almost anything works, but Incineram is the pick worth catching: Kindling 3 to fire the furnace and Mining 3 to dig the ore going into it, all on one Palbox slot, and it spawns in 105 locations. If you want the mining half solved permanently rather than for this set, see How to Farm Ingots.

Pal	Mining	Spawn spots	Why bring it
Incineram	3	105	Mining 3 plus Kindling 3 — mines the Ore and then fires the furnace that smelts it
Digtoise	4	660	Best mining rank you will realistically own at this level, and it is everywhere
Bulldosu	4	52	Same Mining 4 with Transporting 3 on top, so it hauls its own output to the box
Tombat	3	160	Mining 3 and Gathering 2, but night-only spawns — plan the trip around it
Menasting	5	545	Mining 5 and Lumbering 3 — the single best pick for this set's Wood and Ore at once
Cattiva	1	367	Slow, but free and already in your box — it will chip at a Stone Pit unattended
Knocklem	7	33	The endgame answer — Mining 7 and Transporting 7, but only 33 spawn spots

Where to Farm the 40 Wood and 30 Stone

These two lines barely count as farming. Rock is the most abundant node type in the game — 8,157 rocks plus another 4,286 small rocks, all on the Palworld map with the rock layer on — and 30 Stone is roughly one boulder. Wood comes off the 4,654 lumber nodes on the map's lumber layer, and the set's 3 Fiber can be crafted two at a time from a single Wood at a workbench if you would rather not swing at a tree for it. The better answer at level 18 is to stop gathering by hand: the Stone Pit and the Logging Site both unlock at technology level 7 and cost 10 Paldium Fragment each on top of raw materials, and between them this entire set builds itself out of base storage while you play. Mossanda is the standout worker here at Lumbering 4 and Transporting 4, though at 52 spawn spots it is not a Pal you stumble into — Dinossom at Lumbering 3 is the realistic version of the same job.

Pal	Lumbering	Mining	Why bring it
Mossanda	4	—	Lumbering 4 with Transporting 4 — the best wood worker you can get at this stage
Dinossom	3	—	Lumbering 3 and Planting 3, and it spawns in 262 spots against Mossanda's 52
Menasting	3	5	The only Pal here that covers both of this set's raw lines by itself
Eikthyrdeer	2	—	The standard early lumberer and a usable mount while you gather
Digtoise	—	4	Pure stone duty — its rolling attack also shreds rocks out in the field
Cattiva	—	1	Mining 1 and Transporting 1 — filler, but it is free

How to Get the 1 Cloth

One Cloth is two Wool woven at a Primitive Workbench, and that is the whole task — the Bathroom Set asks for a third of what the Antique Bath Set wants. If you have a Ranch, you already have it: the Ranch unlocks at technology level 5 for 30 Wood, 20 Stone and 30 Fiber, and any wool Pal parked on it turns Wool into passive income. Melpaca and Cremis both work a Ranch at rank 2, and Lamball at rank 1 is the one you almost certainly caught in your first ten minutes. If you have no ranch and no patience, killing or catching a wool Pal in the field drops Wool directly, and two of them covers the requirement. Buying it is the expensive route — a caravan merchant sells Cloth at 480 Gold, which is more than everything else in this set combined.

Bathroom Set vs Antique Bath Set

These are two different technologies and people buy the wrong one constantly. The Bathroom Set at level 18 is the one with the toilet, the paper holder and the washstand. The Antique Bath Set at level 16 is the one with the bathtub, and it also carries the partition, the braided basket and the towel rack. Neither includes the other's pieces, and both are pure decoration. If you are building a room that actually looks like a bathroom, budget two technology points and buy both — the seven pieces were clearly designed to share a floor, and the Antique Partition from the level 16 set is what turns an open floor plan into a bathroom nook without spending wall pieces. Buy the Antique Bath Set first: it arrives two levels earlier, it carries the tub, and it is the cheaper of the two at 55 units against this set's 79.

Technology	Level	Points	Pieces	Total materials
Antique Bath Set	16	1	4 — Bathtub, Braided Basket, Partition, Towel Rack	20 Wood, 20 Stone, 10 Fiber, 3 Cloth, 2 Ingot
Bathroom Set	18	1	3 — Toilet, Toilet Paper Holder, Washstand	40 Wood, 30 Stone, 3 Ingot, 3 Fiber, 2 Paldium Fragment, 1 Cloth

How It Compares to the Other Furniture Sets

Every furniture set in this stretch of the tree costs exactly one point, so the only question is what each point buys. At 79 units the Bathroom Set sits in the middle — pricier than the Antique Bath Set's 55 or the Antique Couch Set's 50, far cheaper than the Antique Storage Set's 185 or the Metal Shelf Set's 109. Against its direct rival on the same level 18 row it wins on materials and loses on nothing: the Antique High Quality Furniture Set is also three pieces but wants 90 units including 22 Ingot, which is more than seven times this set's Ingot bill. If you can only afford one point on the row, take the Bathroom Set and come back for the curtains and stove once your furnace has a backlog. For raw value across this whole band, the Antique Storage Set at level 10 is still the best point in the tree — five pieces, and every one of them a working container rather than a prop.

Where to Place Each Piece

The Antique Washstand is the piece to place first, because it is the widest and it needs a wall behind it to read correctly — set it down and build the rest of the room around it. The Antique Toilet wants a corner, ideally facing the washstand rather than sitting beside it, and it is big enough that dropping it in open floor makes your base Pals path around it awkwardly. The Antique Toilet Paper Holder is tiny and only makes sense mounted next to the toilet; anywhere else it just looks like clutter. None of the three is a job station, so all of them are safe inside living quarters without pulling workers off your production lines. The real constraint is the structure cap — three pieces is three slots against your base limit, and if you are also buying the Antique Bath Set you are committing seven slots to a room that does nothing mechanically. Plan for that before you decorate; for everything else competing for those slots, see the list of all base structures.
