I'm just about getting to the Underworld and I'm loving a monster I never really thought I'd like - Kongamato. Dark shifted, with a Moon Sword & Poisoned Dart and the rest on crits he becomes such a monster. Am also loving Dark Mad Eye, the attacking to build shield is such a great combo starter & I heard my little eye has an evolution, so I'm quite excited :D

Love this list. Some of my favs, in no particular order: Imori (probably my favorite overall) Brutus (huge damage) Troll (chomp chomp) Caraglow (when not using, I miss her) Nightwing (love the bleed synergy) Targoat (my favorite shielder) Rainbow Blob (high magic damage) And G’rulu, Catzerker, and Manticorb for the exact reasons you mentioned. It’d be awesome if you could do some team comp analysis videos!

I was using catzerker for a while focusing on bleed and congeal with frosty and yowie, but then I scored am Akhlut egg from a lvl2 reward box and subbed him in with the ice spear volley. It's my favorite team now, with 5 stacks of frost easily achieved, plenty of buffs, heals and shields, and non stop crits with bleed stacks that last forever.

I haven't dabbled into pvp yet, but my gut tells me there is no way that ignoring the stat buffing nodes is the way to go. It doesn't make sense to make a jack of all trades monster, rather than one that focuses on strategy and synergy in the party with as many extra stat buffs nodes as possible.

My absolute favorite has to be Plague Egg. I loved his design the moment I got him, and he's never left my team. I run him as a team healer/shielder, giving a ton of shields every time he heals the party. As well as his attack that removes buffs from enemies. And the random debuff he gives enemies every time he uses his heals is a nice little plus, too. His name? Obvious choice. Had to be SCP-049.

I have to give my favorite slots to the team I went through most of the second half of the game with: Dark Mad Eye, Dark Ice Blob, and Light Druid Oak. Mad Eye spread debuffs and pumped up the damage over time with Age counters, and removed buffs from enemies all while hitting super effective damage to the whole enemy team. Ice Blob shielded the team and applied stacks on stacks of Chill for Congeal damage and made sure Barrier was getting applied early. Druid Oak was able to apply 3 stacks of Regen and buff the entire party every turn while healing them, then taking pot shots with Age-boosted stats on safe turns. The team only got stronger every turn, so all I had to do was survive a few rounds and it was all over. Most fights ended with all opponents suffering from every debuff, my whole team having every buff, no casualties, and full health.

I noticed that your builds don't seem to have high defense at all. Do you mostly use damage accessaries? because if so then i need to change a lot of my items from balance to more dps. I still do great in fights but maybe i'm looking at it all wrong and need to go more damage with my team. Suggestions?
@granddukegaming74443 жыл бұрын
It may take a couple weeks, but I'm working on a video that highlights some of my thought processes when building and accessorizing teams in different stages of the game. To answer on defense: It definitely depends on the monster and the teammates you have with it. Monsters with shielding abilities or defense procs definitely benefit from high defenses. Many of my favorite monsters, though, have high attack power and some way to heal or shield themselves during an attack, or they are paired with teammates that do so. Some passive skills also reduce damage for certain monsters and/or teammates. On items, a splash of defense to increase damage reduction isn't a bad option, especially if you have an equipment item that increases defense alongside your focal stat. However, my take is that you reach a point of diminishing returns when adding a high defense to every monster. Hope this helps!

@granddukegaming74443 жыл бұрын
A popular 6-star team is G'rulu, Fungi, and Troll. The proliferate stacks run the combo counter up for a massive bonus for the Troll's attack (usually Poison Eater). A similar team with a heavy hitting magical attacker going last can result in huge damage to the Spectre, though the original team mentioned above should work just fine.
