Tech Information

Training Locales:
Any Class Monster
  • Alta Vista (LIF): Heavy Techs
  • Barees (INT): Withering Techs*
  • Tonga (SKI): Hit Techs
*Withering depletes enemy Will/Guts
In-Game this is shown as:
"Tak. Will" in the Tech's stats.
C Class monster or higher
  • Hartville (SPD): Ranged Techs
Special Techs:
  • Salem (POW): Special Tech 1
  • Reno (DEF): Special Tech 2

Learning Techs: Tech learning thresholds are determined by your Monster's corresponding stat to the training location's stat. (For example: If the Training Locale is Hartville which raises SPD, then the Monster's SPD and Fear+Spoil+RNG bonuses are summed. If the sum is at or above the threshold, it will learn the tech)

  • To learn: Heavy 1, Hit 1, Wither 1, Ranged 1
    • Monster's Training Locale Stat + Spoil + Fear + (Random 0-99) ≧ 250 Threshold

  • To learn: Heavy 2, Hit 2, Wither 2, Ranged 2, or Special 1 or 2
    • Monster's Training Locale Stat + Spoil + Fear + (Random 0-99) ≧ 500 Threshold

  • The random number is randomly 0 to 99
  • Spoil + Fear = Loyalty. Loyalty can be used as a loose gauge for the bonus, however, Loyalty caps at 100, while Spoil & Fear can go up to 100 each. The bonus isn't applied from the Loyalty value directly, it's applied from Spoil and Fear, so it is possible to have up to 200 bonus points applied.

  • Learning the new tech is determined after the 4th week of training, regardless of success or failure of the training itself.
  • If you succeed in learning a new Tech, you will never get lost. If you get lost, you will not learn a new Tech.
