When I battle any mob the it can use an ability AND attack too! THis is so absurd as the monster can only use their abilities, and then it's the mob's turn again. This ALSo means that a mob can still do a double kill if it's really lucky, where it kills u and u kill it! THis is so DUMB! I mean, I mean, it makes things really unfair, because you don't get a proper chance, and you have to be like several cPowers over their level to win! Like, I was killing a kitsoon magician, and she cast a bleeding hex BEFORE I did my final strike and she died, but in the same round, so I started the next battle off BLEEDING! THis was so dumb, you want y enemy to win, when I get good enough, you are gonna be so stinkin' sorry, Vael, and I am sure about that! 'Ey! Is there any way to avoid the hexes? Is this what the resistance suffix is4? However, I do get the stat-raising abilities, but what about the ones that do direct or indirect damage. THis could give the guy superpowers! There is ONE way to at least half placate me. Make limits on their abilities usage. For example, I was killing off some little dumb idiot kitsoon dumkid, and he threw a rock at me like 3 times in a row; i was so mad at him!!!!! another time I gott mad was when I was killing off another magician, i was so angry I used ray of judgement and holy thunder to squash her in like 4 hits, in the time it would take a normal attack about seven, because I didn't want her2bleed me. Oh yeah, and speaking of status effects, they stay on THROUGH your exploring sessions. I mean even when u go back in2town they stay on4your next trip. I thought that autoheal was supposed to HEAL them! Well, Vael, u should reconsider!!!!! THis doesn't mean I'm giving up the game. I am just INFURIATED!!!!!!!!!!

The resistance suffix is for that, yes. You can find all of them in the reference. 'The monster' -> Equipment.

I want to apologize to Vael for what I'm about to say. Sorry, Vael.
Now the next few lines are about you and your attitude Killer Killer. happy emoticon

If this was my game, you'd be banned instantly! Why?! 'COUSE YOU CAN'T TALK LIKE THAT! You've not read the 5 pages of information (the reference), you can't even begin to imagine how hard Vael is trying to make this game better... On top of that you're so rude! How old are you? 10? If you can't tell Vael in a polite way that you think something in the game is not right, then don't even say a word!!! I don't care for people as impolite as you are! Neither should, Vael... But he's too nice to tell you that!
Oh and, by the way, using numbers for words is SO lame! happy emoticon
P.S. You'll never get better than me and I am sure about that! happy emoticon
P.P.S. Have fun, playing MonBre! happy emoticon

Umm... I know you're upset but...
You didn't heal your monster before the next fight?
When I started playing I started with a normal monster who doesn't heal itself. So, just imagine what a hard time I had until I got my second monster (which was good) and found out that it can heal other monsters. Talk about relief.
Yeah, resistance has 20% chance of working and greater resistance is 40%.
If your cpower is the same as the mobs level it's about right, your cpower should be like 10 more then the mobs level to start getting easier.
Some mob abilities is not direct damage and some times it's the only way mobs can hurt the monsters. I'm not sure how changing that would work but I thought it was fine. *quickly ducks for cover*

Forgot, I know I read somewhere that stamina is the defense for mob abilities (not status effects though).

Well sorry, Belitchco, and I though it was only 2% on the resistance; who knows.

Yeah, some times it's best to wait a bit. When anyone gets upset they say stuff that they didn't mean. I don't care how nice a person may think themself to be, it can happen to anyone. Just look a the president, he had to retrack from that incident with his so-called professor friend and the cop just doing his job.

As for resistance, I hope that 2% is just a typo in the reference.

I can understand why some abilities must be done with an attack, like the ones that the silfin mindslaves do where they are bent on their demise, and it raises all the stats. But ones that do damage or status effects ... well, no. Oh yay! I got a bunch of cool items today; I am pretty rigorous with my exploring monster, as he is age 9, and already about 3/4 of the way to being an adult! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like, I got a fiery kitsoon magic glob!!!!!

I know I'm going off topic but this is where it got posted.
I'm usually in sneak mode and I don't feel like I get as much stuff as I should. It's probably just bad luck but, what mode are you getting all your stuff in?

I'm pretty sure I'm going normal. I'm around packus, usually just walking back and forth, back and forth. I go out for pretty short jaunts, then come back in; usually I stop after my monster's fury hits 100% and I use seal of judgment, then come back in, sell the items off, and go back out again. Sure, and you get a bunch of srp for it too!

1. Garr, sorry, that was actually +20%, I guess I made a typo. Being in sneak mode gives you (if I recall) a +1% chance to find things. Equips aren't meant to drop like candy in monbre.

2. Belichko, I don't ban people because "I'm a nice guy", I don't ban them because it isn't fun. With all the horribleness in the world, especially on the internet, I don't want MonBre to be a dictatorship. I love this game and to see anyone disappointed with it is disappointing for me, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get mad at them. I don't need to ban someone for expressing their opinions of the game, no matter how lewd they are about it. Seeing as you want to run your own game, you'd better learn to not get hot-headed like Killer here, and handle it objectively. Banning someone would, in this case, be very hot-headed.

3. That being said, Killer, there is nothing wrong with this system. The battle system is already too easy, and it's unfair to the mob that you heal energy between battles, can use other monsters to heal, and all your abilities do auto hit. I'm sorry if it makes the game harder, but the battle system is not there to laugh at and stomp all over. The game is meant to be challenging, which I most certainly know it isn't.
