r/DragonQuestMonsters

May i ask: what team should i focus on as a newbie of this game? I usually play pokemon so this is my first time playing game like this.
And for monsters to focus on, i saw that they can have multiple skills, which skills should i focus for my team?
Nokturnus is kinna cool, which skills should i have on him may i ask?

This is for Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 Tara's Journey

I feel like the monsters that I fuse just end up being weaker overall than the parents

I waited until around lvl 20 and thought I made a good choice (worm creature + orc I think, both really high strength), but my baby even by level 15 isn't anywhere close to where the parents were...

Is there something I'm missing regarding breeding?

Do I really gotta wait till like 25 or 30+? From what I had read it was recommended to wait until 20 but after that was gravy

Ot was it, at least until 20 and ideally you are hitting some threshold of stats and abilities that makes it worth it

I think the snaily I fused was probably also a mistake, from slimenite and I forget what else

I basically am looking to grow two bruisers and a healer, that's kinda what my squad already was and I liked it like that

I read a primer on breeding and thought I understood it but perhaps I was really missing some key points 🤔

How are you supposed to build your teams and breed towards that?

Hello everyone, it's me again.

I am currently playing Joker 2 Professional with the English patch and it has been a blast!

Currently my team is:

Harmour (buffer/debuffer/attacker hybrid)

- Bombardier (blast/earth damage + aoe)

- Materialist (metal slash/helm splitter/kabuff)

- Attack Boost II

Discombobulator (Mage/Healer)

- Aquapothecary (heal/water magic)

- Frizz & Sizz (fire magic)

- Wisdom Boost II

Wrecktor (Soon to be Prickly Prankster) (attacker/debuffer)

- Bird Brain (wind damage + aoe/breath defense)

- Diminisher (debuffs)

- Attack Boost II

Now the question is, for Prickly Prankster do I keep Bird Brain or is Iceplosion Slashes better?

Feel free to drop any other suggestions too! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello, good day everyone!

I just got the chance to play Joker 2 Professional thanks to the recent English patch. I am very early in the game and I have a few questions regarding my skillsets.

Currently my main party consists of:

Brownie (physical attacker/debuffer)

- Diminisher

- Attack Boost

- Sleep Ward

See Urchin (healer/water magic)

- Aquapothecary

- Wisdom Boost

- Frizz Ward

Mental Pitcher (offensive mage)

- Frizz and Sizz

- Wisdom Boost

- Frizz Ward

My original plan was to have a physical attacker with debuffs and elemental attacks, healer with backup offensive magic and a physical/magical monster with buffs.

Is there any way I can achieve the above? For the physical attacker part, the only skillset I have seen so far that has both debuffs and elemental slash is Dark Knight with Weakaning Wallop and Shadow Slash. I am also considering changing the offensive mage for a physical attacker with Materialist for Helm Splitter and Kabuff.

I finished the original game years ago but I'm still very much a newbie in this lol. Any advice on this would be very appreciated!
