The quick answer

Work Suitability determines which jobs a Pal can perform. The checked wiki distinguishes Planting, Watering, Gathering and Transporting, so farming can stop when one stage is missing even if many Pals are present.[1]

Understand the distinction

Kindling serves heat-based work, Handiwork serves crafting and construction, and Generating Electricity powers relevant infrastructure. A Pal’s combat strength does not establish whether it can perform a particular base job.[1]

Suggested checklist

  1. Identify the stalled facility’s required work type.[1]
  2. Inspect the assigned Pal’s suitability icons and whether it can reach the facility.[1]
  3. Check the whole production chain, including moving the finished items into storage.[1]

Limits and next steps

Suitability levels and species rankings change. No current best-worker tier list is inferred from this checklist.[1]
