Need gold fast in Palworld? The Black Marketeer is undeniably a tempting target, dropping generous amounts of gold and potentially even keys when defeated; given this thought, it’s easy to see why many people wish they could take the marketeers on more often. However, there are only a certain number of black marketeers in the game, which begs the question: how can you make the most of taking them down? Well, there’s actually a surprising way to make this into a valuable opportunity: using the Black Marketeer glitch for Palworld. But what is this, and how does it work for your own grinding efforts?

There are numerous handy exploits and glitches in Palworld, and the Black Marketeer glitch is just one such example. This glitch refers to a specific set of steps that allow you to repeatedly kill the Black Marketeer in your game before collecting his drops and having him respawn. In turn, this creates a nearly infinite gold and key farm that you can exploit to get rich quick in your next game.

Of course, while a “get rich quick” scheme can be very tempting in Palworld, it’s still important to consider your game’s stability carefully before attempting any glitches; after all, they aren’t technically meant to be part of the game. Fortunately, running your game with private Palworld server hosting allows you to run a stable, secure game, complete with full DDoS protection and access to your server’s settings, so you won’t have to worry about your server struggling after attempting the glitch.

How to Do the Black Marketeer Glitch in Palworld

The Black Marketeer glitch in Palworld allows you to farm gold incredibly efficiently - and unlike most other glitches in the game, this one has the added benefit of having several possible methods to complete. So, you can choose the strategy you’re most comfortable with for your own game!

1 Hanging Trap Method

This is often the easiest and safest method for lower-level or players, but it is more time consuming than some other strategies. To do this approach, craft a Hanging Trap (using wood ×10 and stone ×5), then place the Hanging Trap as close as possible to the Black Marketeer so it ensnares him in his position. Then, once he's trapped, attack him with weapons or your Pals until he’s at low health. Now, place a campfire underneath the Black Marketeer, which should slowly kill the black marketeer. Finally, after defeating him with the campfire, collect the drops and disassemble the trap, before resetting the game and relaunching it. The Black Marketeer should now be back and ready to defeat again!

2 Pal Attacking from Behind

If you’ve got a team of incredibly strong Pals (and are willing to trade the risk of it going wrong for time savings), this method might be right for you. Simply command your Pal to Attack Aggressively while they’re stood behind the Black Marketeer. Then, just as your Pal attacks the Black Marketeer, talk to them; if timed right, the Marketeer should freeze, although they can still take damage. Then, while he’s frozen, land your attacks and defeat him. Then, fast travel away and back (or reload your game fully) to respawn him into the game.

3 Talk and Attack Glitch

If you’ve got a powerful melee weapon, this method is very similar to the second - but it’s you doing the attacking, not your Pal. First, equip a melee weapon or bow, then talk with the Black Marketeer. Immediately press Attack at the same time, which should freeze the Black Marketeer and allow you to repeat the previous glitch. Remember, though, if your timing is off, the Black Marketeer will become hostile!

The Black Marketeer glitch is one of the best methods in Palworld to increase your gold-earning capabilities, and thankfully, with several ways to pull this trick off, it’s also one of the easiest glitches in the game! With that being said, it’s important to consider here that the hack can be a little time consuming, so that’s worth keeping in mind before you bank all of your money-making hopes on this method.
