Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher
Research Data: Territory Battles

Territory Battles - General Information

Territory battles occur as a result of sending your monster to fight a Rival Kaiju who tries to stake claim to your monster's drill areas. The results of these battles prevent territory gauge decreases, as well as can lead to small to decent stat gains depending on the rival monster's rank and the result. This guide will talk about all things related to how the rivals are chosen all the way to how much your monster is affected by the battles that take place.

Territory Background

1. Territory Gauge - These gauges, one for each of the 6 specific drilling areas, are specific to each monster. The scale of these gauges is from 0 to 100. The gauge level has direct impact on the extra amount of stat points that are earned from doing drills at the drill location (see All Things Drills document). The starting value for all territory gauges is 0.
2. Territory Rank - These ranks, one for each of the 6 specific drilling areas, are specific to each monster. The scale of these ranks is the same as the monster ranking system from E to S. The rank level has direct impact on the Rival Monster rank that try to stake claim to the drilling area. The starting value for all territory ranks is E.
3. Territory Rival Kaiju - These Kaiju are assigned at the beginning of each week. These assigned rivals are specific to each monster; therefore, if you save your monster or send them to the association for care, when they come back, the Rival Kaiju will still be there and at the same location. The Rival Kaiju also has a specific stat that is its specialty, and as such increases rewards related to that specific stat if you win the battle.

How are Rival Kaiju Chosen (it's always fun to be creative)

1. Word gets out about the wonderful food at your monsters farm/ranch
1. At the beginning of each week the following process is run
2. Rival Kaiju are seen in the distance
1. Territory Rival Kaiju are collected - total of 64
3. Rival Kaiju decide where to go
1. Territory locations are randomized
4. Rival Kaiju fight for position
1. Rival Kaiju are randomized
5. Rival Kaiju stake claim to each location
1. Rival Kaiju and Territory locations are proceeded through according to the randomized order and the first Rival Kaiju that has a monster rank that is less than or equal to the territories rank will be assigned to the territory and eliminated from further assignment.
6. Rival Kaiju try out the food
1. The base percentage for the Rival Kaiju to stay assigned to the territory is 5%. If your monster owns the cookie trait Gourmet or Magma Devil Award, it will increase this percentage by 5% or decrease it by 3%, respectively.
7. Rival Kaiju decide if they like the food and want to stay or return home
1. A random number specific to each location is generated from 1 to 100. If the random number is greater than the total percent to stay, then the Rival Kaiju is removed from the territory.
2. Any rival Kaiju not removed from its territory stays for the week.

What Happens when I don't Fight a Rival Kaiju

1. Whether your monster does a different drill, fights another Rival Kaiju, takes a rest, heads to an errantry, fights in the arena, or goes on an adventure, the Rival Kaiju takes little sympathy on you and trashes your monsters drill location. The amount of damage done to the drill location is in terms of impact to the territory gauge. The amount the territory gauge is reduced is based on the Rival Kaiju's rank (not territory rank). If you happen to have the Interceptor cookie trait, then the amount the gauge is reduced is decreased by 5. The following table shows the amount decreased based on rank with and without Interceptor.

Monster Class	Reduction w/o Trait	Reduction w/ Trait
E	10	5
D	15	10
C	20	15
B	25	20
A	30	25
S	35	30

What Happens when I do Fight a Rival Kaiju

1. Before the battle
1. Before going into battle, your monster's traits are looked at and if any of the following traits are part of your monster's repertoire, then the associated stat for that trait will get a whopping 1000 point increase for the battle: Perfect Planning (lif), Primordial Power (pow), Careful Trap (int), Piercing Beams (ski), Cosmic Wing (spd), or Jet-Black Carapace (def).
2. During the battle - no difference from a regular fight in the arena.
3. Territory Rank after the battle
1. If you win the battle, the territory rank for that location will be increased by 1
2. If you lose the battle, the territory rank for the location will be decreased by 1
4. Monster Big 6 Stat Gains after the battle
1. If you lose the battle, then you will receive a loser's increase in the location's primary stat
2. If you win the battle and the location's primary stat doesn't match the rival's specialty stat, then you will receive the same stat increase for the location's primary stat and the rivals specialty stat
3. If you win the battle and the location's primary stat matches the rival's specialty stat, then you will receive a slightly boosted stat increase for the location's primary stat, plus the regular win increase for the rival's specialty stat. This results in the same stat being boosted twice.
4. The stat increases are based on the Rival Kaiju's rank and your monster's rank - see table below

5. General Stat changes after the battle
1. The following general stats are updated whether you win or lose the fight: fatigue, stress, and weight.
2. The first step for these adjustments is to calculate base changes for all stats. They are based on the rival Kaiju rank and your monster’s rank. A random value, chosen from the range given is used for all.

Class		Fatigue		Stress		Weight
Rival Kaiju	Your Monster	Base Min	Base Max	Base Min	Base Max	Base Min	Base Max
E	E	6	8	3	6	-4	-2
D	E	7	9	3	6	-4	-2
C	E	8	10	4	7	-4	-2
B	E	9	11	4	7	-5	-3
A	E	10	12	5	8	-5	-3
S	E	11	13	5	8	-5	-3
E	D	7	9	3	6	-4	-2
D	D	8	10	3	6	-4	-2
C	D	9	11	3	6	-4	-2
B	D	11	13	4	7	-4	-2
A	D	12	14	4	7	-5	-3
S	D	14	16	5	8	-5	-3
E	C	6	8	3	6	-4	-2
D	C	7	9	3	6	-4	-2
C	C	9	11	4	7	-4	-2
B	C	11	13	5	8	-4	-2
A	C	12	14	5	8	-4	-2
S	C	14	16	6	9	-5	-3
E	B	5	7	2	5	-3	-1
D	B	7	9	3	6	-4	-2
C	B	9	11	3	6	-4	-2
B	B	11	13	4	7	-4	-2
A	B	13	15	5	8	-4	-2
S	B	15	17	5	8	-4	-2
E	A	3	5	2	5	-3	-1
D	A	6	8	3	6	-3	-1
C	A	8	10	3	6	-4	-2
B	A	11	13	4	7	-4	-2
A	A	13	15	5	8	-4	-2
S	A	15	17	6	9	-4	-2
E	S	1	3	1	4	-3	-1
D	S	4	6	2	5	-3	-1
C	S	7	9	3	6	-3	-1
B	S	9	11	3	6	-4	-2
A	S	12	14	4	7	-4	-2
S	S	15	17	5	8	-4	-2

3. After determining the base value, next is to apply the aging type multipliers, these multipliers only impact fatigue and stress. The following tables are multiplied by the base value for fatigue and stress. The multiplier is done as a decimal, and then the values are rounded towards zero. The multipliers are as follows:

Aging Type	Fatigue Multiplier
1 (Normal)	0.9
2 (Early)	1
3 (Late)	1.1

Aging Type	Stress Multiplier
1 (Normal)	0.9
2 (Early)	1
3 (Late)	1.1

4. Next is to apply the cookie trait effects that come in to play due to general use. There are 2 cookies that have effects:
1. Eternal Grudge -> decrease in fatigue by 2
2. Perfect Evolution -> decrease in weight by 5
5. Finally add the adjustments to the chosen stat and store away.
6. Now that the other general stats have been updated comes the effects on anger being changed. The following is used for updating anger only if the monster wins the territory battle:
1. The base change for anger is based on the monster aging type. A random value is chosen from the range given if needed.

Aging Type 1 (Normal)	Aging Type 2 (Early)	Aging Type 3 (Late)
-20 to -10	-40 to -5	-15

2. Next is the continued change of anger based on personality. All personalities add an additional -5 in anger.
3. Next is to apply the cookie trait effects that come into play due to general use. There are 2 cookies that have effects:
4. Acid Tears -> increase in anger reduction by 10
5. Out for Revenge -> decrease in anger reduction by 10.
6. Finally add the adjustments to anger and store away.
