[Translation] Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3

Skaidus · Jan 1, 2018

Hello! I am enjoying the game a lot. I will play terrys after this one.

My question is, which is your next plan? I mean, professional or monsters 2? I know that many people asked this but I really would like to know it. I mean, not an exact day, but a period in when the next one would be released.

In order to control my hype. Thanks!

Considering how this translation came out of the blue, I highly doubt they would tell us even if they were already knee-deep in DQM2 or J3P (technically they already are since Joker 3 is practically finished). Probably trying to steer clear of the C&D-happy Square Enix. Just got to be patient, young Slime.

Thanks for the translation!

As someone who doesn't know any of the Japanese alphabet (Kanji/Hira/Kata/others?), I'm having trouble entering the present codes. Entering the ones just with English letters/numbers are obviously easy enough, but I have no clue how to go about doing the Japanese ones.

In particular I'm interested in the 30 medals one (S怪な体ぅぎ書皇右ァ I think? according to an early post), so any help would be appreciated. If there are any other particularly good presents, that would be nice too.

Did you try disabling game patching temporarily like @GameSystem recommended?

In case anyone is trying to type in the item codes in the wifi plaza, you may have to disable the patch for it to work.
For example, in the code [ S怪な体ぅぎ書皇右ァ ] (for 30 mini-medals), it fails because it won't allow you to add the dakuten (゛) to make ぎ.
The characters are also harder to read in the English patch.

I'll try that if it'll make the Japanese characters easier to distinguish. Meant more of I have no idea how to search for particular characters other than slowly looking through each of them and comparing each of the letters.

Aside from someone making a video of them doing that themselves and then watching it I don't see how else you'd do it.

@Einzbern
If you are having trouble finding a specific character, it's easier to Google it. The first result should be a Wikipedia article that tells you what it is and how to pronounce it.
First tab is Hiragana, second tab is Katakana, 3rd and fourth are Kanji.

For Hiragana and Katakana, from top to bottom the vowels are A, I, U, E, O. So if you look up a character and it says Hiragana for Ku, you know that it ends in U, so it'll be in the third row somewhere. Learning the order or the actual alphabet is a bit harder, so just learn the order of the vowels to make those parts easier.

(Applies to Hiragana and Katakana tabs only) If you see a '' or a little "o" where an apostrophe should be, you have to press "Y" to add that to the character. It also changes some characters to "lower case" or "small." There are a few characters in some of the codes that need to be lower case. For the mini-medal one, it is ぅ and ァ.

If you look up a character and it says Chinese or some word, it's in the third or the fourth tab. I don't really have a shortcut to finding these.

For some reason, I guess it's the patch's fault, the "Y" button doesn't work for some characters on the first and second tab. It works for most of them, so you should only have trouble with a few characters. Though if you are going to add a bunch of stuff, I'd recommend just disabling patch to make it easier to read.
You'll probably want the little golden slime code too, because it makes it a lot easier to fuse the golden dragon thing for one of the scout missions.

For the little gold slime, do you mean スライムゴールドのMAP? that gave me a gold slime map, or disc, or something. The other map gave me a gem slime map I think?

When you say disable the patch, do you mean play the actual Japanese (pre patched) version? Simply disabling the Luma game patching didn't seem to change anything, in terms of making the characters easier to read. Or allowing me to add the " to ぎ.

Knowing about the vowel rows for Hira and Kata(and which box was which) really helped, but locating some of the kanji was a pain. Thanks for the help!

Yeah, that doesn't change much. Somethings reverted back to Japanese, but a lot of things where still in English. More importantly, the text input was still hard to read, and I couldn't add the marks to one or two of the characters.

Then you most likely downloaded the pre-patched English version instead of the pre-patched Japanese version. If you got the game from that one site that shall not be named, there would've been two different .cias to choose from.

While I did at first, I tried grabbing the Japanese CIA and still had the same issue. Even went so far as to download the Japanese version and make the CIA myself. Every time, same issue.

Skaidus · Jan 1, 2018

Where did you said that was a fusion guide ingame?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

And can you reasign skill points?

Did you make sure to also change which additional files were added to your SD card?

Once you get to a certain point in the Fallen City questline you get access to Jack, the NPC to the right of the king. Talking to him after fusing/scouting 10 monsters of each tier (F, E, D, etc.) will add the rest of that tier's data to your library (found in the menu). This adds various bits of data including fusion recipe, but know that the vast majority of monsters don't have recipes that require certain monsters, just certain families. You could also use the quick fusion function to see what fusions have been and/or are currently available to you with the monsters you have in stock.

And can you reasign skill points?

Only after fusing. Your monster's child gets half of the average of its parents skillpoints. Unused skillpoints stay unused and used skillpoints stay in that skill.

Whats the code for the gem slime map? I know i posted a link here with some code but i didnt see any map codes.
Also i typed that code or somethingyou posted for the gold slime map but says invalid. Or that's not a code?

Skaidus · Jan 1, 2018

I am on the core. After this, post game

a) after that the metal land will be unlocked?
B) my fusions are quite limited to "big" monsters. Can you recommend me some monsters to Scout and fuse?
C) at which level should I be?

DomiKing · Jan 1, 2018

the instant death bug instantly kills gold golems
that could end up beeing a problem cause you can only scout them

Skaidus · Jan 1, 2018

Uh, there seems that after that SPOILER you can fly. Is this the post game?

There is an assured recruit at the Masters Road in the Fallen City. Don't know if you can repeat it for more recruits but I assume you can.
