[JP] Version 8.0 Details

A major update is upon us and Monster Strike is going to evolve to a new beast!

Official Site Article: http://www.monster-strike.com/news/20161004_3.html

Let's check out the details!


Maintenance Time: 10/6 12AM - 5AM JST

Since this is a major update, make sure you backup your data before the maintenance time to avoid any data lost!

Fusion Revamp and New Fuse Box

With the new update, Morling and Expies will be separated to their own Box. They will not conflict with your box space any more!

Fusing Revamp

There will be two tabs when choosing the monsters you fuse. One is fusion materials (Morlings/Expies) where you can press "+" or "-" to fuse a certain number of materials. The second tab will be for monsters. There will be a separate section at the top to show monsters of the same evolution chain.

Bring Over Your Fusion Materials!

In the Monster Icon, there will be a Morling/Expie Transfer tab. You will need to do it to transfer the applicable monsters over to the separate box that is currently in your main monster box. You will only have to do it once.

Applicable Monsters

- Expie, Nexpie, Depluxipe and Maxpie of each Element
- Mormite, Mormite S, Mormite X

- Morlfye, Morlfye S, Morlfye X

- Morquik, Morquik S, Morquik X

The amount that will be brought over depends on the Luck of the Morling/Expie. If there is a 2 Luck Expie being transfer, that will 2 Expie worth into the new Fusion Box. This also applies to Bonus Luck. For example, if you transfer a Luck 48 Maxpie (40 Base Luck and 8 Bonus Luck), it will transfer 48 copies of Maxpie. 

Special Morlings or Expies like King Mormites or Seasonal Expies will not be transferred to the new Box.

Details

- The max amount of Morlings / Expies you can hold in the new Box is 9999
- You will be able to fuse 10 types of monsters at a time. Therefore, you can fuse 2 Maxpies (of the same element) but it will take up only one space out of the max 10

- You will not be able to take Morlings/Expies onto quests once you do the transfer

- The transfer will transfer Morlings/Expies even though they are locked or favorited

- The transfer will not transfer Morlings/Expies that are in Teams or as a Friend Monster. You will need to do the transfer again if you want them in the Fusion Box

- You will not be able to fuse, sell, or raise luck between monsters in the Fusion Box
- You will not be able to transfer Fusion monsters into your Main Monster Box

Search Bar

Swipe down in your Monster Box, Evo/Asc/Transc., Monster Selection and etc. for a search bar.

This will not appear in the Sell Monsters menu.

Increased Box Space

The starting Box space for players will be 200 instead of 40. All players will have 160 increased space following the update.

Max Box Space limit increased to 3500.

Finally, the +40 space for players under Rank 30 will not be effective after the update.

Library of Memories Renewal

You will be able to play Library of Memories quests Solo or through Social/LINE Co-Op.

- Co-Op only Savage Quests will still be Co-Op only

- Players have to be Rank 70 to host Library of Memories quests. Players don't have to be Rank 70 to join these quests

- Players can only host 5 Library quests per day. It resets at 12AM JST

- You will have to use stamina to play Library quests

- You cannot stock Library quests

Normal Quest and Mission Renewal

There will be 26 new sets of normal dungeons, replacing the old ones! Each set will have 3 to 5 dungeons. Clearing each set of normal dungeons will reward players with 2 Orbs, totaling to 52 Orbs. 

Players will be able to receive a Max Luck Sanctuary Dragon (6* Light) through clearing the Normal Quest missions in your Mission Log

- Sanctuary Dragon cannot Evolve or Ascend. Players will receive him as a 6*

- Players will receive him at Luck 99 (Max Luck)

- Sanctuary Dragon does not increase the Max Luck count in your Player Stats. In other words, he won't increase the ML Count for ML Bonuses or for Colossal dungeon requirements.
