QUICK ANSWER
To reset your character’s stat points in Palworld, you must craft and consume a late-game consumable called Memory Wiping Medicine at the Electric Medicine Workbench.

Respeccing your human character in Palworld is not something you can do at an early-game NPC or via a free menu toggle. It requires a specific, single-use consumable that is gated behind late-game technology and a significant material grind. Because the item only affects your player level-up stats, understanding exactly what it does—and what bugs to watch out for—before you drink it is essential.

What Memory Wiping Medicine actually does

Memory Wiping Medicine is the only official method for resetting your human character’s allocated stat points. There is no free NPC respec option, nor is there a menu button to reclaim your points. When you consume the medicine, all of your manually allocated level-up stats reset to zero, allowing you to freely redistribute them into categories like HP, Stamina, Weight, or Work Speed.

🔑 keyIt is critical to understand the scope of this item: it affects only your character’s level-up stat points. It does not reset your Pal’s stats, it does not refund your Technology points, and it does not alter your world progression or base level. If you have misallocated your Technology points or want to respec your Pals, this medicine will not help you.

Unlock requirements and crafting recipe

Ingredient Quantity How to Obtain
Beautiful Flower 99 Farmed at Wildlife Sanctuaries
Horn 50 Common drops from certain Pals
Bone 50 Common drops from certain Pals
Pal Fluids 50 Common drops from certain Pals

To craft Memory Wiping Medicine, you must first reach level 43 and unlock the Electric Medicine Workbench in the Technology tab for 3 Technology Points. Building the workbench itself is a late-game undertaking, requiring 10 Circuit Boards, 20 Carbon Fiber, and 40 Refined Ingots. Once built, the structure must be powered by electricity sources or Pals with the appropriate generating ability.

The medicine requires a hefty amount of rare materials, particularly Beautiful Flowers. The crafting time is notably long, so it is highly recommended to assign a Pal with Level 3 Medicine Production to the workbench to speed up the process.

Farming the required ingredients

While Horn, Bone, and Pal Fluids are common drops from a wide variety of Pals and will passively accumulate in your storage chests through normal gameplay, Beautiful Flowers are the primary bottleneck. You need 99 of them for a single craft, making them a dedicated farming target.

The most reliable source for Beautiful Flowers is the Wildlife Sanctuaries scattered across the map. Players report spending just 5 to 10 minutes at a sanctuary and walking away with around 20 flowers, making repeated sanctuary runs the most efficient gathering method.

If you want to bypass the crafting grind entirely, there is an alternative combat and farming method. You can defeat or capture wild Lovanders for a chance to obtain the medicine directly. Capture them and subsequently butchering them at your base also provides an opportunity to yield the item without needing to build the Electric Medicine Workbench or gather the 99 flowers.

Bugs and glitches to check before you reset

Before you consume Memory Wiping Medicine, be aware of a few historically documented bugs and common misconceptions that can negatively impact your save.

⚠️ watch outFirst is the Capture Power bug. Historically, a known bug caused the medicine to permanently reduce the player’s capture power with no way to recover it. While developers have been working on the issue, it is not fully confirmed whether this has been completely patched in the current version. If you are mid-game and actively trying to capture Pals, proceed with caution.

Second is the Unused Stat Points glitch. Community testing indicates that if you have already maxed out your stats using late-game elixirs, using the stat reset medicine will not remove those elixir-granted points. This leaves you with permanently applied points and a number of unspendable leftovers, resulting in a permanent “unused stat points” warning on your screen. This behavior is based on player reports and could change in future patches.

Finally, never assume the medicine resets Pal stats or Technology points. It is strictly for your human character’s level-up allocations. Using it expecting a full account wipe will only waste your hard-farmed materials.

QUICK WIN

Assign a Pal with Level 3 Medicine Production to the Electric Medicine Workbench to significantly reduce the notoriously long crafting time for Memory Wiping Medicine.

If you are looking to respec your Pals rather than your human character, you do not use Memory Wiping Medicine. Instead, build the Statue of Power, which unlocks at level 6 and requires 10 Palladium Fragments and 20 Stone. Interacting with the statue allows you to reset a Pal’s stats for a Gold fee.

For PC players who want to bypass the level 43 grind or avoid potential bugs entirely, there is an unofficial modding route. You can install the “Reset Stats” UI mod via NexusMods. This requires RE-UE4SS and adds a simple reset button directly to your inventory screen, allowing you to reclaim your points on the fly.

💡 pro tipFinally, if you are worried about wasting points on your way to the late game, keep in mind that stat-boosting elixirs exist. Given enough time and elixirs, you can eventually max out all of your character’s stats, which renders manual point allocation and respecs far less critical in the absolute endgame.
