I ran across a pack of 3 King Metal Slimes in this game. My liquid metal slime that I bred for Agility 4, Agility 3 and kaboomle went first, used kaboomle and killed all 3. That dopamine hit when 14.4 million experience popped up on my screen had me grinning like a loon for the next hour. Dragon Quest Monsters gets me like no other series does. Love it to death

The story is what really caught me off guard...Despite the reminder in the top left corner, I have never felt tempted to skip a cutscene. The narrative is well paced, unique enough in its setup and themes, and the chaaracters are bursting with personality thanks to the typically colorful design and localization that we've come to expect from modern DQ games. Needless to say, as someone who grew up playing the originals, I've been over the absolutely over the moon about this game and am glad to see it getting some love. What a time to be alive as a 90s kid and a JRPG fanatic these days!

At some point in the game, you'll come across an accessory called *Candy Cane* This thing is so strong: when the wielder is in battle, exp and gold gain increases by 10% and more likely to find items. Make sure this accessory is always worn by someone in the main party and not in reserve.

I'm about 40 hours in and can finally say it's my dream monsters game. Perfect combo of DMW1/2 + Jokers mechanics! The icing on the cake is the so far whimsical re-telling of DQ4. I spent nearly 4 hours yesterday trying to fuse a Overkilling Machine (I like Robster more for there name) the fusion lines are incredibly addicting. I didn't know you could turn off spells and when you showed it my jaw dropped lol THANK YOU! I loved hearing the old DWM breeding theme (shoutout to cursed towers ost) - that bit brought me a nostalgia tear.

@@sharebear421 the difficulty has been been perfect. Early game is easy fun for battling and scouting and it really picks up mid game. Once you get towards the end of mid game you will start being punished for bad team comps. I'm in the final 3rd of the game atm and I'm starting to get pound on even with a team of solid A rank monsters. There's 2 tournaments that you can access that both have g-s rank battles like the older games. I'm currently parked at the A brackets getting wailed on lol. I'm excited to see the S tournaments and I'm hoping to see some crazy post game battles. A friend who's in the post game now had told me he was getting destroyed by a few bosses even with some serious S rank beasties.

Some monsters have a trait that lets them ignore the extra defense of metal monsters and since you can swap out your party members in a regular battle it would be useful to keep one of those in your reserve just in case.

I'd say for monster team building, make a team of a healer, fighter, mage, and an all-rounder/buffer and start making these four as strong at their role as possible. Healer, duy, is the one who heals and recovers your team when their low (beef up their health and defense of you could, don't give them agility up stats for they work well if their last especially against bosses who can deal heavy damage later than your team does to use your items accordingly when others are low when the healer did their job last turn) Fighters are physical attackers who can do double actions and use attacks that deal damage to metal monsters without worry (attack and health are usually the stats to go, three guesses why, lol) Mages are magic users, varying spells can deal wide amounts of damage, either elemental or just AoE damage for sweeps (wisdom and mp boosts are essential for a good mage naturally) All rounders are your breath attackers, essentially AoE users (whatever they need to be bigger AoE sweepers, give them that. Breath attacks I wouldn't know if they scale off of a stat or not though) Buffers are the spell users that use buffs to make your team stronger and possibly weaken your enemies (as a prominent teammate who fortifies the team, fortification is essential for themselves, defense and health is usually the way to go for them, but speed is also key to make their buffs come in ASAP)

You can always pick the species of either of the parents when synthesizing. I've used this to add a new talent to a metal slime while keeping the trait that reduces the damage it takes. I also have a regular slime I've synthesized with other things just to see how strong I could get it and to see if I could keep it usably powerful. So far, so good.

The paddock isn't a bad idea. Especially since you can only have a total of 8 monsters with you at a time you can leave the C listers back at base to still level up. Even if only to use as synthesis for skills later.

I think so. Once you get a bit further, monsters give more xp so training new ones in the back-up lane to lvl 20 and beyond is easier. You can pick your favorites to make up your main line-up, but he's got a point about keeping the last slot open for anyone else you want to catch up in levels.

One more trick about scouting that I noticed is different from the Joker games: You can throw a monster treat on the same turn you scout! In the previous iterations, the scout command cancels any item usage, so this is a welcome change if you wanted to boost your odds slightly but don't want to take a turn to cast Oomple/Kazing on your team and Sap on the target respectively!

When you synthesize, you get half of all the points the parent monsters had invested, along with half of their unspent points. You can't really reset as far as I know, but the synthesized monster resets to level 1, so you can easily earn more points and do this infinitely.

These were the worst tips I ever got for a video game. These are not things you NEED TO KNOW, these are things you discover when playing the game. Things you need to know are, that there are metal slimes in upper echelons which share spawnpoint with common monsters that give huge amounts of exp or liquid metal slimes and slime kings in upper echelons. They can be farmed for insane exp and get very good monsters early on. Also, dont synth your mon at lvl 10 right away, wait for lvl 12/14/17 (depends where you train) for them extra talenmtpoints.
