If you thought that the Colosseum at Endor was the only set of arena battles thatDragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princehad in store for you, you thought wrong. After conquering the first two categories in Endor, you’ll be quickly shuttled towards Nadiria and a second set of arena gauntlets to conquer.
The first of these, naturally, is Category G - while this shares the same name as the first category in Endor, it’s not easier. This is a whole new level of difficulty. You’ll want to beat it quickly, though, as this is the final hurdle to surpass before unlocking Synthesis!
Maulosseum G Rank Overview
Entry Fee: 10 Gold Coins
As with Endor’s Colosseum, the Maulosseum tournaments consist ofthree consecutive fights. While the monsters here are overall tougher than those in the previous arena battles, there are no scary Large monsters to face. This category is all about building a strong team.
Flying Saucers
Lampling
There are some tough cookies here -Snail Slimeis an incredible defensive monster with support skills,Skullrider and Guaardvarkhave high attack and can make the second battle tough if they focus their attacks on one of your monsters, and thefinal battle is filled with high-health monsterswho can deal a lot of damage.
How To Beat Maulosseum G Rank
With no truly threatening standouts to face, the only thing you need to do to conquer this category is spend some timelevelling up in the Circle of Conquestand potentially scout some new monsters. This new area is home to some really great picks:
Bubble Slime
Summer
Functionally identical to a regular Slime, but can poison enemies on contact damage and will have slightly higher stats. Makes a good replacement.
Leery Lout
Spring
Amazing defence and can still pack a wallop. Buff, Heal, and Attack Attacker are all great skills to have - this is the best healer you’re able to get before Synthesis.
Lunatick
Autumn
Can pump out very high-damage Crack spells. Less useful against the generally ice-resistant first battle but you can just set it to not use MP until the second battle.
All except Summer
An all-rounder with good attack and defence.
Until you beat this category, you will have animpaired ability to scout monsters in the Circle of Conquest. This doesn’t make it impossible, though - getting a few new monsters should only take a few tries, especially if you use meat.
To succeed, you’ll want a balanced party of monsters around level ten.
With these, your strategy will be to get rid of as many monsters as possible before they manage to take outanyof yours - arena battles tend to exhibit a snowball effect, losing monsters early in a fight is a recipe for disaster. This is whyparty-wide spellsare so important - single-target attacks have a tendency to get spread around too much, giving the enemy party chance to retaliate.
