Best Monster Team Comp Tips

Mix in Different Forte Skills

Dragon Quest Treasures - Forte Skills Menu
Put together a team with different Forte skills to create a well-balanced team that can explore the world in very different ways. This will make exploration much easier for you.
All Forte Skills and How to Use Them

Adjust Team Based on Treasure Forecast

Golden Ratio
The Treasure Forecast of a specific island shows what kinds of treasures are easier to find at the moment. Create team comps that have higher Golden Ratios based on the Treasure Forecast for an easier time treasure hunting!

Use Monsters with Different Favorite Treasures

Different Favorite Treasures
Monsters have Favorite Treasures that they prefer to find. Choose monsters that have different Favorite Treasures, so that you will have an easier time finding more treasure even faster.

Best Party and Team Composition

Bring Buddy Pellets

Shoot a Buddy Bullet.png

Buddy Pellets are an indespensible resource you can use to easily target monsters and recruit them to your team. Instead of randomly defeating group of monsters, aiming for specific monsters and using several buddy pellets on them will allow you to get specific stronger monsters much easier!
