Benefits of Using Excursions

Monsties Receive Environment Skills

Monsties Receive Environment Skills.png

A Monstie can receive its Environment Skills depending on its Ecosystem Rank in that specific area. For example, if a Monstie is a B in its Ecosystem Rank, it will only receive 1 Egg Power. You can also give multiple powers to a Monstie through an Excursion, in a case where the Monstie's Ecosystem Rank is S.

Send Ratha on Excursions

In the case of Ratha, the Monstie's Ecosystem Rank cannot be raised, but he is considered an S-Rank Monstie in each area of the game. Since Ratha is essentially with you throughout the game, it is recommended to send the Monstie on Excursions as well.

Monsties Receive Stat Increases
