Palmon Survival Evolution Cost Calculator

What each step costs

The ladders are the same for every Palmon of a kind, so one table covers all 38 lines. The Energy column is the cost of taking every talent that step opens to its last level.

Step	Stars	Camp	Material	Talents	Energy to max them
UR lines, Evolution I to IV 25 Palmon
Evolution I	5	Lv 10	20 × Evolution Essence	4	30,000
Evolution II	10	Lv 10	40 × Evolution Essence	6	60,000
Evolution III	15	Lv 10	80 × Evolution Essence	6	90,000
Evolution IV	20	Lv 10	160 × Evolution Essence	6	220,000
All four steps			300 × Evolution Essence	22	400,000
Mythics, Evolution I to IV 13 Palmon
Evolution I	5	Lv 10	20 × Aurora Essence	4	30,000
Evolution II	10	Lv 10	40 × Aurora Essence	6	60,000
Evolution III	15	Lv 10	80 × Aurora Essence	6	90,000
Evolution IV	20	Lv 10	160 × Aurora Essence	6	220,000
All four steps			300 × Aurora Essence	22	400,000
Mega forms, Evolution V to VIII 12 Palmon
Evolution V	25	Lv 10	1 × the line's own Oath	3	30,000
Evolution VI	25	Lv 10	40 × Aurora Essence	5	60,000
Evolution VII	25	Lv 10	80 × Aurora Essence	6	90,000
Evolution VIII	25	Lv 10	160 × Aurora Essence	6	220,000
All four steps			280 × Aurora Essence1 × Oath	20	400,000

The Essence price doubles at every step: 20, 40, 80, 160. Evolution IV is 160 of the 300 a full ladder takes, more than the first three steps put together, which is the arithmetic behind the advice in our progression guide to finish one Palmon before starting the next. Taking one Palmon from Evolution II to IV costs 240 Essence. The same amount would carry 4 fresh Palmon to Evolution II, where none of them has its evolved skill yet.

Megas and Mythics share Aurora Essence

UR lines pay for Evolution I to IV in Evolution Essence. Mythics pay for the same four steps in Aurora Essence, 300 for the whole ladder. A Mega form asks for the line's own Oath at Evolution V and then 280 Aurora Essence across VI to VIII. So a Mega and a Mythic draw on one pool, and finishing a single Mega costs nearly what a whole Mythic ladder does. If your plan holds both kinds, the Aurora Essence row of the bill is the one that runs short first.

The cheapest saving is on the Mythic side. The progression guide puts a Mythic's stopping point at Evolution III, where its main upgrade lands. Set the goal there and that Mythic's Aurora Essence bill drops from 300 to 140, which leaves 160 toward a Mega.

Stars come first

Essence alone does not move a Palmon up the ladder. Evolution I needs 5 stars, II needs 10, III needs 15 and IV needs 20. Every Mega step needs 25, and every step on every ladder needs Camp Lv 10. Each Palmon in your plan shows the highest star count its steps ask for. Check that number against the Palmon before you save Essence for it: a Palmon short on stars can't take the step however much you hold.

Talents and element Energy

A UR line opens 22 talents across Evolution I to IV, bought level by level with Energy of its own element. Taking all of them to the last level costs 400,000 Energy, and the 6 talents on Evolution IV are 220,000 of that. The Mega steps add another 400,000. Energy is split by element, so a squad of one element pays its whole talent bill from a single pool while a mixed squad spreads it over several.

The Talents switch sets what the bill counts. "Leave out" shows the price of the steps alone. "Steps in the plan" adds the talents those steps open. "Every step up to the goal" also counts the talents on steps a Palmon has already finished, for a Palmon that evolved without buying them. The page can't see how many levels of a talent you already own, so treat the Energy rows as the most a plan can cost.
