How to Win in the Arena

Level Up Monsters and Mix Up Your Team

Dragon Quest Monsters - Level Up Your Monsters

When you have trouble winning in the arena, it is often because your team is underleveled. Try to grind levels and also mix up your traits or teams to gain an advantage. Certain Monsters do better in specific ranks depending on the types of enemies you have to face.

Learn Evolved Talents

Dragon Quest Monsters - Learn Talent Evolutions

There are some talents that can be evolved if you put the maximum number of points to the Talent before synthesis. The evolved version will be passed down to the child Monster, which can make your team significantly stronger!

Talent Evolutions and How to Evolve

Set Instructions in the Menu

Dragon Quest Monsters - Set Instructions

Since you cannot directly control your Monsters in the arena, it is useful to set up the behavior in the Instructions settings before challenging the ranks to optimize the way your monsters will fight.
