InDragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, you’ll want a well-balanced team of monsters to get through the game. Thanks to this, Large monsters might seem like more hassle than they’re worth - they take up two slots, after all. But what are the benefits of fielding a Large monster?
To begin with, all Large monsters have a trait that allows them to act multiple times per turn, which makes up for the fact they take up two party slots. Despite this coming with a slight stat decrease, this makes Large monsters well worth considering - but how exactly do you acquire them?
How To Get Large Monsters
There are a few different ways to acquire aLarge monsterin Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince.
Scouting Wild Monsters
It’s possible to encounter Large monsters in the wild. There are some stipulations to this, though:
Monsters vary a great deal in size normally, and some will appear very large in the field -not all really big monsters will be of the Large category, though.
Keep an eye out for thereally massive ones, though, you can’t miss them.
Synthesising With Large Monsters
Once you have a few Large monsters, you’ll surely be wondering what happens when you fuse them through synthesis. We can confirm the following:
Some of theNPC synthesis opportunitiesyou can encounter (there’s one per region) will be with Large monsters. verify you think hard about whether you want to potentially pass up an opportunity to get a rare Large monster by fusing it with a Small one.
Monster Eggs
Eventually, you can start encounteringmonster eggs in the overworld. These are rare and can contain rare monsters -they can also sometimes be Large.
While it’s not the best idea to rely on these eggs, make sure you grab them whenever you see them!
The Mole Hole
If you haveThe Mole Hole DLCfor the game, you’ll unlock a very convenient place to scout monsters. The Mole Hole allows you toencounter any monster that you’ve had in your possessionand atany size- this is by far the most reliable way to get a stock of Large monsters.
Monsters in the Mole Hole are abit tougher to scout than normal, but with meat treats and patience, you should be able to find your desired monsters very easily.
