I am having the hardest time raising my monsters, cus their stats just stop rising by the end of their lives. I think that my problem is that I usually try to use up all the action points every week, running around praising for nothing, and then they get very spoiled. So my question is:

When should I praise or when should I scold? I heard it depends on the percentage of success rate - but what above what % should I praise and below what % should I scold? Also, do ppl normally use up all the action points every week? Or they only use it to do necessary things?

Your reply would be appreciated

Praise only when you want to reduce stress in a hard trainning routine. Working a monster hard will stress it, but will also discipline it, so praising it will relieve a bit of stress while not spoiling it.

And I do only what's necessary, there's no point in wasting money and time.

I praise my monster when it's trained 90% or over and scold it when it's trained 65% or under.

I praise above 85%. If a monster trains at 95% or above, I reward it with a well-liked toy. If the monster earns 100%, I reward with its very favorite toy.
Once the monster starts on gadgets, I scold below 80% with the Wind Drum, or below 75% without the Drum.

I praise when above 85% and scold when below 70% doing so has kept my monsters training in the 90%. If they had won a match and get a 90% or above the next week I give them their favorite toy. Also people that I had heard from scolded them when the lost because of bullishness or timidity.

i scold when my monsters get less then 85% so they normaly get 92-96%.
