I stopped at Emberdale. It's been fun so far, but I'm just anxious for when the Alltrades Abbey shows up. I want to turn my party into monsters ASAP.

Does anyone know if the Hearts monsters drop are gated by some sort of level and/or story progression? They've dropped really infrequently except for the basic Slime Heart for me, but I could just be unlucky.

Nearly 400 Drake Slimes killed and not a single heart. I've resigned myself to this fate.

Sadly, I've had to make do with hearts that have been present in treasure chests as I progress for my monster party. But now the main character is one of those Chimaera guys and that means I'm gonna be breathing fire on everyone. Hopefully it gets more than the first tier of the fire breath. I mean, Healslimes definitely didn't know Midheal or Fullheal, so I'm assuming this guy will also be stronger than the monster of the same name.

So wait what's this about evolving monster classes and stuff? Am I screwing myself here with going full ham on Monsters, or are all monsters just not able to drop their hearts with enough patience? Otherwise why would the Big Book of Beasts say they can? Is that why it was so easy for me to get Slime Hearts compared to the others? Should I be using them on the others? Why don't they explain this more in the game?

I've beaten a certain fishman boss and now it's looking like I'm finally going to be getting a new party member. I could definitely use one, stuff's getting harder despite me feeling very powerful. Though Frizzle / Fire Claw do help with bosses.

I'm very bothered by the game teasing me with Sir Mervyn coming soon but I can't do anything about it right this second. Don't give me all the hints and then just say "Okay, go do an unrelated island now!" Unless I'm dumb and there is a way to do it now.

AriadneThread posted:once you complete the island with mysterious traveling bard, (haven't gotten to that point yet in the remake) you should be able to do it. Then what the hell? What am I missing? The game told me there was a hot stone that could revive him, which is the Sizzling Stone Pike has. I go to Pike's house, he's not there. Everyone in town mentions the rich man Bulgio, but he's not at his mansion accessible by carpet either. He might have other houses throughout the land or something, cause he's so rich? The game really doesn't give me a good idea of where to go, but I know what I SHOULD be doing.

After quite a bit of headache with constant Whack spells, I've managed to secure a Mimic Heart. My party is safe to continue on the journey with nobody getting redundant vocation experience. I wanted to get more hearts from the Lucky Panel game but whenever one comes up that I don't have I never win. It'd be awesome to get, like, the Well Wisher Heart... maybe tomorrow, after the next place.

Hitting a goddamn brick wall with Cumulus vex (HellCloud) and his friggin vaccum-vortex that hits everyone for 80-110 damage and how there's no pattern or rhyme or reason to his attacks: the first time I fought him he didn't use it until well into the fight, but the second time it was the first thing he did, how is that fair? And sometimes he uses it back to back and there's no way to recover from that. I guess I'd better grind.

A Fancy 400 lbs posted:Am I doing something wrong with Monster Meadows? I have the Monster Munchies in my hero's inventory, a monster will sometimes do the thing where it gives you the option to tell them about Monster Meadows and I do, and then... they just don't show up there. I just finished the past version of Greenthumb Garden, do I just need to get further in the main quest? There'll be a point where you can access Monster Meadows by simply walking to it on the overworld. You can technically already see where it'll be on the world map, even though the island isn't there yet. Once that happens, you can start making use of it. You're still some ways off from that point, so just enjoy the buildup you're creating.

Zore posted:Yeah, Monster classes and basic classes let you keep any skills you learn. Intermediate/Advanced human classes don't. Chimaera monster will also give you Frizzle and the tier two Fire breath, while it's not as strong as the Drake Slime's ice breath it can still serve a good purpose as a free attack all enemies. Also you can get a lot of hearts from the Lucky Panel, I don't know if they're dependent on how far you've progressed through the game, but they're all pretty good ones. Jawtoise and Rockbomb in particular for both giving Kabuff, and the former giving Oomph to make boss battles go by much quicker. I just wish it was easier to get certain ones, I'm probably going to be farming a bit to try and get the Goodybag and Serial Quiller to see what they're all about, since the rest of my party is reaching mastery of their current ones quickly, and all the hearts I'm finding in chests are redundant. I actually switched around Drake Slime and Healslime with your recommendations because Maribel's higher MP gives her more longevity to use Multiheal in tough fights, and she's no slouch on the speed department either. Ruff is better off doing support or crowd control in my experience.

I'm trying to get Serial Quiller hearts but unfortunately the enclosure they stay in isn't built yet so I can't just make them get a tablet for me even though that's totally possible. So I'm just fighting them in the overworld a lot. Up to 180 killed. If I get bored of this I'll probably switch to Lucky Panel once I get some decent cash flow going again, since I did only recently unlock the casino in floaty castle town. 100 tokens is pretty steep but usually a win will give me back the money I spent on all the losses.

A 75th mini medal later and I got the serial quiller enclosure and got the heart not shortly after. Also managed to win a Draguar heart in Lucky Panel, amongst other goodies. Definitely made my money back. I can't imagine the Sword of Ruin or Massacre Sword are worth the effects of their curses, am I correct in assuming that?

I think Flying Knee does extra damage to enemies that are, well, flying. A lot of skills are crapshoots though. I wish they told me things like Stomp sometimes outright fails, or Harvest Moon does more damage against a single target as opposed to two, or maybe told me what spells/abilities using an item in-battle will give me before I spend inordinate amounts of money on buying it.

I'm dedicated to making a perfect little spreadsheet for all the monsters now. Honestly doing work like this is kinda fun to me, so I don't mind. I'll try and note special skills that need monsters to be carried over from those lists, as well. Never realized that I have only barely delved into how deep this can go, haha.

Zore posted:You need 5 to unlock it on all your permanent characters. You only need 1 heart/character and you can unlock intermediate and 'advanced' monster jobs much like you can human ones. It's a bad example though because you can't find Lizardman (Mandrake Major) until the part of the game I'm at. Probably the easiest combo you can do from what I'm reading is Kingfuschia, Chimaera, and Jawtoise to make Dingbat. It sucks that I'm not allowed to go to the Haven at this point of the game unless I'm missing something. I definitely would like to try and grab some new hearts for combos, but I'm pretty much stuck with the classes I've got for the time being.

Mountaineer posted:I've killed about 800 kingfuschias in the tablet dungeon that's nothing but kingfuschias, and haven't gotten a single heart. Am I somehow sabotaging myself by killing them with boomerangs, so there's not just a single "last" monster? I'll switch to single-target weapons and see if it helps. It might just be conjecture but have you tried actually finishing the dungeon? The final boss Kingfuschia is supposed to drop hearts more often, and I think clearing the dungeon repeatedly increases your chances too. Of course, I could be completely off base, but that's how it was for me and Drake Slimes. LostRook posted:I think both Rockbomb, Berserker and Goodybag all are fairly late. Berserker is in the 2nd to last colored fragement island, Jewelbag is on the last colored fragment island, Rockbomb is the 2nd grey fragment. I think a couple of them will be in world map treasure chests that you can get quite a bit earlier but I can't remember which specifically or where, though I'm pretty sure it's Rockbomb. You can get Rockbomb and Berserker easily from Lucky Panel, Goodybag I haven't found anywhere yet but I'll be doing more Lucky Panel now that I'm in the endgame so I'll let you guys know.

So I've finished my spreadsheet for what monsters learn at what times. Not all the english names are there yet simply because I haven't encountered them, but I'm gonna be working on it, and if people know the actual official names (Screenshots would be the best way to confirm them) then let me know! Find it here.

Mountaineer posted:Earlier I asked if there was a trick to getting monster hearts. As it turns out, there is! You have to go to the monster meadow and pick up the monster munchies. Before that point, monster hearts will not drop. Of course nothing in the game mentions this or even the existence of the meadow, you just have to stumble into it on your own. Oh. Well that'd explain it. I got the munchies right away because I'm very methodical about my exploration. Sorry about your wasted time, man, that sucks.

In Training posted:I don't know what happened but saving and restarting the game put the serial quiller into the monster meadow. Maybe theres an actual time delay between when you tame them and when they show up in the meadow? You have to talk to the old man before the new monsters are "tallied up" so to speak. I would say maybe you'd be missing an Enclosure, but that clearly wasn't the case.

Just had a go at some 750-token Lucky Panels. Walked away with a couple Prism Peacock hearts which is... yeah, that's pretty cool. I'll throw that onto Mervyn. Not too much in other unique prizes though; I almost had a Hela's hammer but I had a total brain fart and screwed myself. Did get a Happy Hat from the 100-token panels I did to get the money to afford these 750-token panels though. Maribel will greatly enjoy that. Just trying to get a little more powerful because I'm confused as to how to get into what I assume is the final dungeon.

cloofish posted:I've been using Lightning (level 8 sailor skill) and I'm wondering-- does it ever taper off? It's a free, hit all attack that's stronger than my iron ax, and it doesn't diminish in damage like a boomerang does. It just seems really really good right now. It tapers off. If the enemy resists it, it's only doing 30 damage. Eventually they start getting way more HP too. It's useful for a good while, but you'll have to invest in new options as you progress.
