Dragon Quest Monsters:Joker

[Myoko-chan]

"Welcome to Green Bays, a cluster of mysterious islands that sparkle like jewels in the shimmering ocean! But travelers beware! The islands are not as peaceful as they seem, for they teem with a multitude of mosnters both great and small.

Green Bays is also home to the famous monster scout challenge. This renowned contest, held once every few years, determines who will be crowned the world's greatest scout."

Anyways, my bro got this game a week ago and I started getting addicted to it. So I wanted to make a thread about it lol.

We can discuss
-Plotline
-Synthesis Combinations
-Skills
-Monster Team(Strategies, Recommendations etc.)
-Tricks and stuff
-Other Stuff

(I hope somone here actually plays this game so we can actually have a discussion x_x)

I am currently at the part where you just defeat Ace of Spades and have to enter the volcano.

Recruiting Metabble was extremely hard. I had to go to the Metal Managerie a LOT. I have also "befriended" (Synthesized) 153 monsters. Even though I beat the game, I just can't stop playing. I wish I had WiFi, though. It would be nice to see how my team fares (Probably not very well).

 

[mach8822]

I'm stuck on the second round of the stupid Garden Chellenge. How can I get the last Slime to appear?

 

[Alistair]

There are a couple of places where the slime will drop down from the ceiling. Try by the brown chest in the alcove by the bushes in the first garden.

 

[dragonfreak234]

nice i cant beat the dr.snapped even with 2 demon at arms and a belial how much do u do with one atak and my group changed a bit

mp 234
atk 368
balka beta belial
lvl 25
hp 234
mp 109
atk 326

 

[Alistair]

Well, first of all, get rid of your Demon-at-Arms. They do not get many stat points as they gain levels, and they actually have one of the lowest stat point pools in the entire game (Which is a shame, due to their trait). Try adding a Darkslime (Which has one of the highest) and a dragon that is at least a Megalodon, though I would suggest a Mechan-o'-Wyrm if you can manage to Synthesize a Great Dragon and manage to scout a Metal Dragon. Another thing you could do is try to synthesize a Jamirus, which also has the Double Trouble trait, along with a bigger point pool.

 

[Beelzemon Tamer]

i need help im on the part where the incarnus is a chiken and im at the 2nd temple i can kill the rank a boss!!Help

 

[Ársa]

What Platform is it? I have the Dragon Quest: Journey of the Cursed King for PS2, that was great. :)

~M51

 

[Alistair]

It is for the Nintendo DS.

@Beelzemon Tamer: First of all, train you monsters, scout and synthesize some new ones if neccessary. I would suggest you have 2 main attackers, and 1 designated healer, so if you have those monsters, arrange your party in the specified manner and level up accordingly. If not, synthesize some sort of healing monster, then start leveling up.

[dragonfreak234]

how do u

how do u do 4 monster breeding im trying to get a mumbo jumbo

 

[Alistair]

First, combine Mum and Boh, and also combine Jum and Boe. After that, combine the products of those 2 fusions (Restart if you don't get the right gender) to get a Mumboh-Jumboe.

I also figured out that the highest level you can raise your monsters to is 50. Its a little disappointing, but it took a while to get Reapee to that level.

 

[dragonfreak234]

thanks

thanks now i have a ruin and im going for a psaro and im going to breed my other demon at arms and get a malroth then a zoma

i also thought about a killing machine is it really good
oh and i got a mech can o wyrm
it doesn't seem that good

 

[Alistair]

I am trying to get an Atlus (Acutally, two), which I will eventually synth into a Dragovian Lord.

 

[Trainer Kat]

My Nardragon just did 920 damage to the second boss. O.<
My jaw seriously dropped.

Is there anything to do on Infern? It seems to be just a place to catch Dark Slime Knights...

 

[Alistair]

Infern Isle has something to do with the storyline. You will discover what it is as you get farther in the game (Not telling, don't want to spoil the ending).
