Gaming Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker

[Joey Ravn]

What should I do with my King Slime? I could mix it with a Cure Slime to get a Dark Slime, but I don't know if it's good enough to get. I spent a lot of time leveling up my monsters to breed them, so the 'have fun while testing' doesn't sound appealing enough to try

Any suggestions?

My one suggestion would be to save the game and then synth, if you aren't satisfied with the results then restart your game.

And I usuallly make backups of my saves (flash cart) just incase it turns out horrific and I want to turn back time just a bit.

Well, yes, I obviously do that every time I synth monsters... but I assumed you understood what I meant and why with the question...

I'm looking for advice on a particular monster, in this case, King Slime and its possible fusions...

Does anybody know where commisioner snap is after "beating" the tournament? He walked off with the incarnus and now I don't know where to find him.

King Slime can be obtained VERY EARLY (Like right after the opening ceremony if you're like me) and the fact it's rank C makes it a tremendous early booster, mix it with other family monsters to get C rank monster of their family.
I recommend Dragon family, high physical attack is very useful for not only progressing story, but also scouting monsters.
If you're at the later half of the game (Like 7+ darkoniums) then King Cureslime (King Slime x King Slime) is ABSOLUTELY useful till the end of the game.
King Slime is easy to scout, (If you don't have one in your party/storage. If you have one already the scout chances drop dramatically) it spawns with about 1/4 chance at the top of infant isle, where you took pledge. Use the well, if you see slimes playing, go back into the well and come back out. Repeat untill you see a king slime.

Edit: If you can grind a lot, synth Dark Slime, and Synth into other family rank B monsters, recommended is Infernal Armour of Devil family and Cockateer of Beast Family. These are excellent physical fighters but require more grinding then rank C

Cockateer was one of my best 3 for the later half of the game.
Also I've played the entire game with 2 physical attackers + 1 healer formation, can't recommend any magic-heavy monsters since I lack experience with them.

Does anybody know where commisioner snap is after "beating" the tournament? He walked off with the incarnus and now I don't know where to find him.

Did you go check on CELL hideout? It's located at low-level in the north-middle of Fert Isle. Don't use the ladder, walk around to the east, take the corner, follow a tiny bit west and head north there should be a jetty. Check the shelves and there should be a hint to progress further.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Nice, thanks deathfisaro. I'll try to get a King Cure Slime using the tips you gave me. But, just a little, tiny question: Dragon Slime or Angel Slime? I can synth both ATM, but which is more useful for future synths or as a party member? I'll be able to get more later on, but I'm already at 13 hours clocked and I barely made any progress on the story... I want to move on a bit before starting focusing on synths again

Infern Isle is your final destination. Be prepared.

I used to carry an angel slime in my substitute. So when one of my main three dies in battle, I use zing using angel slime and stuff.
But Angel Slime is scout-able. I think it was Xeroph isle, on top of pillars with brown chests at night.

That was easy as hell, that whole island. Dr Snapped was moderatly difficult but I think I had more trouble dealing with the Atlas, Boss Troll and Black Dragon monsters without running out of items, thankfully I trained enough that beating the Incarnus was easy and taking out Dr Snapped was easy.

My party consists of two X rank monsters and one S rank. I currently have a lvl 40 Zoma, lvl 40 Mirudraas and a level 32 Estark. I am not sure whether I want to breed for Deathmore though but I am having loads of trouble deciding what to use my Captain Crow on for breeding. I am not sure whether I want Dragon Lord so I can eventually get Dragovian Lord or Dr Snapped. I think it would be easier to obtain Dragovian Lord though, I just need one more Grandpa Slime for a Gem Slime and two Alabast Dragons.

Does anyone know if I can get monster modifier cheats for the M3 Simply to make this a little less painful?

 

[DSGamer64]

From what I hear, Squeenix flushes out hacked teams manually at a certain time everyday.

If that were true, Team X would be gone. I am getting sick of the people who hack their monsters stats to max out, I will never be able to get Leopold without cheating.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Thanks for the reply, deathfisaro. So, another quick Q: Which is the first/easiest level A monster you can scout/synth? I want to get a Great Dragon ASAP...

Which is the quickest chain to get a level A monster? Or scout, although I have troubles with high-level monsters. My team are not really strong ATM... too much synthing

 

[DSGamer64]

Probably your best bet would be picking up Gigantes on Infant Isle, although he has rediculously high attack stats but if you breed him with another monster to get Atlas, you will wind up with one of the best physical monsters in the game for attack.

 

[DSGamer64]

Seems my party lineup has changed.

Darkonium Slime +6
Mortamor +10
Hawkhart Ace +2

Should be easy leveling up Mortamor though, 8 exp from level 1 to 2

I'm not sure how much percentage you can pull off from A rank monsters, Gigantes on Infant isle can be encountered early but doesn't mean it's the easiest to scout. I feel like Wailing weeds on Fert Isle is easy to scout and appears often.

Currently my main is Gem Slime+9, nearly capped stats except 214 HP. I don't have other "main" per se because I'm working on filling the library.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Well, I finally got a Great Dragon through an 'easy' method: I went to Infant Isle, to the top-most position, where you pray at the beginning of the game. There's a 1/15 chance you encounter a King Slime there. You can take a quick peek just two steps away from the well you come through. If you don't see a King Slime, just go down and up again.
When you get one, scout it. If you're lucky enough (like myself), you'll get a + and a -. Or a +- and a + or -. Synth them (they'll be at level 20 with enough spare skill points to to get a 'Boost' skill to ~34) and you'll get a King Cure Slime.
Train that King Cure Slime to level 11 (you can get it to level 10, but reaching level 11 grants you 11 sweet, sweet skill points). Synth it with almost anything and you'll get a King Bubble Slime, a Rank A monster. Then, repeat: train to level 11 and synth.

The best thing: All this can be done in about ~45', and it's fairly easy to scout King Slimes.

If you know whistle you can just whistle until you see a King Slime too, instead of going in and out of the well.

The only problem with synthing King Slime into higher rank Slimes and getting a Dragon out of it is, you lack offensive skills, and your stats are quite agility and wisdom heavy. Great Dragon has good attack growth so it will kick ass by uber stat, but I recommend you scout a Gigantes (also on infant isle, during the day near campfire, moderate chance spawn), synth it into an opposite gender Great Dragon, or directly with the Great Dragon you have to get a stat boost, especially in the Attack area.
You'll eventually need two Great Dragons anyway, one for Mecha Wyrm, one for Black Dragon

 

[cupajoe]

How do you make Black Dragon?

 

[deathfisaro]

Great Dragon x Bone Baron

Bone Baron = Grim rider x Dark slime knight
Grim rider = Demon rider x Restless Armor
Dark Slime Knight = Dark Slime x Slime Knight

BD is just for filling library, I don't see any S/X rank recipe containing BD.

 

[cupajoe]

Thanks for the info, what rank is BD?
