*For the loot which appears after defeating a monster, see Monster Treasuries.*

**Monsters** are roaming the Map. They or their icons can be clicked on, which will prompt a screen to engage in combat. If enough of a specific weapon is held, this prompt may be accepted. A battle will begin in an unspecified part of the city, requiring the player to 'attack' or 'hand over' (click on) with items to the Monster. After three to five hits, the Monster is defeated, providing items, keys, Experience, or a treasury. Monsters have their own specific loot pools and durability, as well as a specific weapon required to engage with them. Each hit on a Monster also provides 1 coin and 1 exp. It is possible to leave combat with a Monster, and it will retain damage if hits were done to it, however the fight can only be initiated if there enough weapons are held to defeat the Monster at any given time.

## Flame Gargoyle

It's a fire fury, daughter of the evil flame! A fire burns inside this gargoyle, filling the stone monster with life and strength.

The Diggers' souls belong to the City's dungeons. They only occasionally rise to the surface to exchange mined rarities for flares.

 Special Drops

Once every thousand years, he rises from the depths of the sea to try his luck at becoming a dragon. Meeting him promises great luck...

- Imugi

## Zombie

At night, these monsters howl and scratch at doors, terrify townspeople, and steal gifts and costumes prepared for a light-hearted Halloween. Jack wanted them to do the opposite - to take away fear and bring joy. But the monsters have broken free and flooded the City. Their grotesque bodies are animated by the magic of the World of Darkness. Wherever they go, they spread dread.

- Zombie

 Assembler Drops

## Toothy Sweettooth

He comes to the human world to collect more candy. Don't look at his rows of sharp teeth - he only uses them when he sees caramels. Whenever Toothy Sweettooth catches a whiff of pumpkin caramel, he can't help but break into a smile.

## Tips & Tricks

* To get weapons for the stronger Monsters, the best way is to fight a weaker variant with a weapon drop Booster Active.
	+ Ex. To get Tasers for Psy-Werewolves, fight regular Werewolves with weapon drops increased.
	+ This goes on; Wanderers for Flares, Mummies for Mummifying Liquid, etc.
* Weapons for the weakest Monsters can be bought in bulk without using Rubies.
* While Monsters typically provide little experience or coin gains, the Quests and Collections they come with can be completed quickly and generally offer a large amount.
* Save up your weapons and use a Monster related Boosters to get the most out of fighting monsters.
* You can only have up to 12 Monsters on the map.
* Stock up on Amulets (aka Monster Summoners) when you have the coins to spend. It'll come in handy when Monster related quests happen.
* When completing quests for completing Monster related collections, it's best to use a Monster item drop related booster and make sure you are stocked up on weapons for that particular Monster.
* All of the keys from the Monsters can also appear in any Monster treasury.
* Keys only show up in the drop items for Monsters when the City Treasure shows up on the map.
