Monster Life Breeding and Play Reference (WIP)
RayGun Wrote:time of update on the type will probs be ok.

as for date format, the numerical style is easier for entry. though having oct in the display etc instead of a number for the month may be clearer? In the past, I used to find the month-date format that americans use a bit confusing, people from other countries may also be confused by it. on the other hand its pretty obvious what the month is anyway, since the monsters only last for one month.




Woops, when I said NLC, I meant the monster areas in Masteria. I suppose that means that all monster areas potentially can spawn them, and unlike the events there is no exclusion for Global, SEA content areas. I haven't yet seen any in the cities (main town maps), though that may be because people have killed them all.

Released farm critters can spawn in the map outside Hideout in Showa, while it has no normal mobs it is probably not labeled as a town map.

The box that gives an S rank Special, which means:

Timer
Lilynouch
Apsu
Beryl

Which *should* mean 25% chance for any one, but in my experience, it's HEAVILY weighted towards Timer.

Yes.

Finished 5 monsters above level 20, 5 special monsters above 15, and level 30 monster at the same time. I can finally get rid of these A+ and replace them with S rank special parents. My farm won't be so gosh darn useless for others anymore. Not sure if I want to actually get Snow Giant or not though. I might scrap Oddity on my farm since it isn't that useful.

Breed Level 30 A+ Bovine with Level 30 S Bovine = C Rank twice in a row.
They really, really need to improve combination chances because that is 500% BS.

Oh that, opened 5, 4 out of 5 are Apsu. Probably luck?

One down. http://prntscr.com/1ytey1

Just need to get my Toy, Soldier, and Canine to S now. Hopefully they give me special parents and not a regular S rank.

I've had pretty good luck with Toys (S rank after like 4 A+ combinations, and 2/3 S I've got were the Black Knight), Soldiers have way too many non-useful S ranks.

Oddities moving to S rank is giving me trouble :? sorta silly. I've done about 60 A+&S rank combos with all B+ to A+ rank results.

Probably. Just got another pineappling Timer today. Only once did I get something other than Timers from them, and that was a Lilynouch. The only reason I haven't given up completely on them is because no one seems to have gotten Beryl from them yet.

That's the exact monster I'm trying to get since I already have a Lilynouch in my monster barn.

Minor inconvenience and it probably only bothers me but is it possible that the expired monsters be removed or greyed out on the list.

Also do I keep combining any rank pig for a Lupin Pig? I've been combining S rank pigs for a while now Sad...

I wouldn't mind them being grayed out or spaced into another list on the same page, but we have lost too many farms from monsters expiring. In cases of Apus, AAATheShire, LexyLand, ChaoticCJ, and so on, the farms almost always renew their monsters, but have been lost and just need to be updated. In some cases you can also tell the levels of the monsters even on expired farms, which is nice.

As for Lupin Pig, it seems to be the hardest SS to get along with Toys and Slimes. It really just comes down to luck, I found it best to combine when your monsters is level 25+ and the other farms is at least 20. Combining two of the same really does seem to increase the chance of getting an SS(or higher rank) as well, even if it is just by a percent or two.

Probably greying them out is doable, but I shouldn't work on it tonight. It was basically a choice between 'include empty farms' and 'include expired farms' cause of how the database works (can't select based on comparisons of 2 or more properties in queries), I chose expired for special parents. The way I see it a farm is liable to keep around expired specials, and if they don't, then setting the quantity to 0 should remove it from the table. Whereas if a farm runs out of regular mobs it's pretty easy (and even likely) to regain them, so quantity of 0 is worth checking out in a pinch.


Opened an "A to SS" box and got an A rank (Moon Bunny) .... should have seen that one coming.

Either it's too late for me or whatever but you lost me where you started explaining the choices. I would however appreciate the greying out of expired farms if possible!

and thanks @ChaoticCJ I guess I shall diligently nurture, combine and hope for the best.

(I should go read how to tag people..)

[MENTION=12601]Liable[/MENTION]; you put @ before and ; after the name and it converts it for you. There's also a tag.

Pushed an update with expired farms in grey.

Yeah, used up the free $0.005 worth of database queries 90 minutes before the quota resets >_> So on the one hand I could spend a few hours figuring out optimizations to reduce number of page loads. On the other, it is literally cents a month to run the site.

For today, it'll start working again at midnight PST. I think in future I will have billing set up so it doesn't go down.

Does anyone know how much waru is in meso? Like have any of you been selling scroll service or those pipsqueak transformation potions?

I might just start buying gem service in my server. Kind of lazy to run multiple farms just to revive my stuff. Lilynouch has been sitting in my barn for maybe a month lol.

Eyes of Fire cost 80 Monster Life coins, which is 160,000 Waru, and are sold in MYCK FM for 5m meso. So 31.25 meso per waru.
No idea about Gems.

Gem from special shop is 100K not counting discounts. Cheaper than I expected. Guess I'll see if I can find any sellers in GAZED.

S ranked oddity is being crap >_< Several days of trying everything and no luck. Probably time to stop trying, and just level up my A+ ranked Oddity a bunch.

I got a Pipsqueak Orchid (SS) in about 5 tries, meanwhile (Twin Moon Bunny was gonna expire, I figured may as well try since it's level 20+)

People removed active farms from the Google Spreadsheet, while those farms still got those monsters and they are not expired.
