Frequently Asked Questions

To start playing Catch a Monster on Roblox:
1. Open Roblox and search for "Catch a Monster" or click the game link
2. Once in-game, you'll spawn with a starter monster
3. Walk around to find wild monsters and press E to engage in battle
4. Defeat monsters and catch them to add to your collection
5. Use the Revive Pond to heal your monsters after battles

Monster grades determine their base stats and rarity. The grades from lowest to highest are:
- E Grade: Common monsters with basic stats
- D Grade: Slightly better than E grade
- C Grade: Average stats, more useful for mid-game
- B Grade: Above average, good for most content
- A Grade: Strong monsters with high stats
- S Grade: Very rare, excellent stats
- SS Grade: Extremely rare, top-tier stats

Higher grade monsters have better base HP and attack power. You can identify grades by checking your inventory after catching a monster.

The fusion system allows you to combine monsters to create stronger ones:
1. Go to the Fuse Machine in the main hub
2. Select 5 monsters of the same species and grade
3. Confirm the fusion to receive a higher grade monster

Tips:
- You need exactly 5 of the same monster type and grade
- If you have more than 10 of the same monster, you may need to clear your selection before adding more
- Fusion is a great way to upgrade your team without relying on luck

To heal your monsters, visit the Revive Pond located in each major area:
1. Walk into the glowing water area
2. Your monsters will automatically start healing
3. Wait until all your monsters are fully restored

Note: You can also heal at the volcano island fountain while still engaging with nearby monsters. This is a known feature/bug that some players use strategically.

You can set your spawn point at different locations:
1. Find a spawn point marker in an area (usually near major landmarks)
2. Interact with it to set your respawn location
3. When you die or use the respawn option, you'll return there

Known Issue: Some spawn points like Volcano Island may not work properly and will respawn you at Area 1. The developers are aware of this.

Eggs spawn at specific locations and contain rare monsters:

- Fire Egg: Found near the volcano and inside volcanic areas
- Other eggs: Spawn at various locations across different islands

Tips:
- Eggs are contested - other players can take them
- Eggs typically have a respawn timer
- Keep an eye on egg spawn locations and check back regularly

Mounts help you travel faster across the map:
1. Press the mount key (default: M) to summon your mount
2. Use the turtle mount to cross water areas
3. Press the mount key again to dismount

Tips:
- Don't spam the mount key on land as it may cause movement glitches
- Be careful when near walls while mounted to avoid falling through the map

Monster types have advantages and disadvantages against each other:

- Fire beats Grass
- Water beats Fire
- Grass beats Water
- Electric is strong against Water
- Normal has no special advantages or weaknesses

Using type advantages in battle can significantly increase your damage output. Always try to match your monster types against enemies for maximum effectiveness.

XP gain is based on battles completed, not just enemy difficulty. Some strategies:

1. Quick Kill Method: Target weaker monsters like Wattoads for fast XP (speed over difficulty)
2. AFK Farming: Use strong monsters in lower-level areas for consistent XP
3. Boss Battles: While slower, bosses give decent XP and rare drops

Tip: XP doesn't scale perfectly with difficulty, so sometimes farming weaker enemies quickly is more efficient than fighting tough monsters.

Several game passes enhance your gameplay experience:

- Auto Catch: Automatically catches defeated monsters

- Gameplay: Fight through increasingly difficult floors
- Rewards: Earn exclusive rewards, crystals, and rare monsters
- Progression: Your progress is saved, so you can continue where you left off

Bosses are powerful monsters that spawn at specific locations:

1. Blazelord: Found in the volcano area - make sure you're in the correct position to engage
2. Other bosses spawn on timers in their respective areas

If a boss won't engage:
- Make sure you're close enough
- Try moving around the boss
- The boss might be on cooldown from a recent fight

Tips:
- Bring a full team of high-grade monsters
- Use type advantages
- Coordinate with other players for difficult bosses

Your monster storage depends on your account status:

- Free Players: Limited storage slots (exact number may vary)
- With Extra Slots Pass: Significantly increased storage

Managing Storage:
- Release unwanted low-grade monsters
- Fuse duplicate monsters to save space
- Keep only your best monsters of each type

Each monster has several stats:

- HP (Health Points): How much damage a monster can take
- Attack: Base damage dealt to enemies
- Type: Element type (Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Normal)
- Grade: Overall quality rating (E to SS)
- Level: Increases through XP, improves stats

Note: Some monsters like Dragon Cannelloni may have stat growth issues at certain levels. This is being addressed by developers.

Catch a Monster features multiple islands:

1. Starter Island: Beginning area with basic monsters
2. Forest Area: Grass-type monsters and early game content
3. Volcano Island: Fire-type monsters including Blazelord boss
4. Ocean Areas: Water-type monsters, accessible via turtle mount

Each island has unique monsters, challenges, and resources.

To adjust audio settings:
1. Open the Settings menu
2. Look for the Audio/Sound options
3. Toggle music and sound effects as desired

Note: If you hear constant ambient sounds (like meowing) that seem out of place, this may be a known audio bug. Adjusting your settings or rejoining the server can sometimes help.

Potential Serum is an upgrade item that increases a monster's potential stat:

1. Obtain Potential Serum from Endless Spire rewards or codes
2. Use it on a monster from your inventory
3. Each use increases the monster's potential

Tips:
- Success chance decreases as potential gets higher
- Recommended to use 1-2 times per monster if you get a good bonus
- Higher potential means better stat growth when leveling

Arcane Sparkstone is a rare item that allows you to evolve monsters:

- Evolve monsters from rank B to rank A
- Provides a significant stat boost
- Can be obtained from Endless Spire shop or rewards

Requirements:
- Your monster must be at B rank
- You need the required amount of Arcane Sparkstones
- The monster will gain improved stats after evolution

Both are special variants of regular monsters with different bonuses:

Shiny Monsters:
- Have sparkles around them
- 30% critical hit rate bonus
- Visual sparkle effect when following you
- Can be identified before catching by looking for sparkles

Huge Monsters:
- Approximately 2x the normal size when following you
- May have additional stat bonuses
- Both shiny and huge status can be preserved through fusion

According to player discussions, Fluffairy (from the Thanksgiving event) is considered better than Flaragon:

- Better overall stats
- Useful abilities
- However, obtaining a high-rank Fluffairy during the limited event can be challenging

Note: Both monsters are strong choices. Your decision may depend on availability and what ranks you can achieve.

This is a known bug that occasionally affects the Starter Island fountain:

Solutions:
1. Go to another island: The volcano island and frost isle fountains usually work properly
2. Rejoin the server: Leaving and rejoining often fixes this issue
3. Use code "heal": The developers released a code to help with this issue

Tip: If you're stuck with dead pets on starter island, try jumping across the water to reach volcano island (spam jump button to avoid drowning).

Pets sometimes stop attacking due to several bugs:

Common Causes & Fixes:
1. Pyrowulf Bug: Pets may freeze when fighting Pyrowulf - try repositioning
2. Auto-attack glitch: Toggle auto-attack off and on again
3. Stuck in corners: Pets can get stuck in arena corners - move away to reset them
4. AFK bug: If you've been idle, prompts disappear - rejoin the game

Quick Fix: Press the mount button (M) - this often resets your pets and teleports them to you.

Some bosses (like Flaragon and Blazelord) can glitch and fall through the ground:

If the boss falls underground:
1. You may still be able to damage it from above
2. Try jumping to reach the loot if it spawns underground
3. If the egg is stuck, jump near it to trigger collection

If you can't reach the loot:
- Wait for the boss to respawn
- Try a different server
- The developers are aware of this issue

Currently, boss eggs can be taken by anyone who reaches them first, regardless of who did the most damage:

How it works:
- The player who gets the last hit gets credit for the kill
- Anyone can pick up the dropped egg
- This is a current game mechanic that players find frustrating

Tips to protect your loot:
- Fight bosses in private servers
- Stay close to the boss when it's about to die
- Be ready to grab the egg immediately

The community has requested damage-based rewards, so this may change in future updates.

If you sold your turtle mount and can't cross water, here are your options:

Solutions:
1. Water jumping exploit: Spam jump + mount buttons to skip across water
2. Get a new mount: Purchase the Dragon Cannelloni (99 Robux) which can fly
3. Defeat the boss again: The turtle mount comes from defeating a boss on starter island

Prevention:
- Lock valuable items before selling
- Be careful when using "Select All" + Sell
- Double-check before confirming sales

Rank A monsters cannot be obtained through fusion. The maximum rank you can fuse to is Rank B.

How to get Rank A monsters:
1. Catch them directly: Some rare spawns are A rank
2. Hatch from eggs: Boss eggs and event eggs can contain A rank monsters
3. Use Arcane Sparkstone: Evolve B rank to A rank with this item

Tip: Save your Arcane Sparkstones from Endless Spire for your best B rank monsters!

Private servers have different spawn mechanics:

Eggs:
- Eggs don't spawn immediately when server starts
- They spawn periodically over time (like public servers)
- Stay on the island where you want eggs to appear

Bosses:
- Bosses only spawn if a player is on that island
- You may need to wait if you just arrived
- Spawn timers continue while players are present

Tip: Public servers have eggs because they've been running longer and players haven't collected them all.

Some players have reported eggs vanishing from incubators:

Known Causes:
1. Update interference: Major updates may cause egg display issues
2. Timer bug: Sometimes eggs show wrong/duplicate timers
3. UI glitch: Eggs may still be there but not visible

Solutions:
- Rejoin the server to refresh the display
- Create a support ticket if the egg is truly gone
- Take screenshots of rare eggs for proof

Prevention: Avoid leaving eggs in incubators during announced update times.

The Endless Spire has some known issues:

Pets not spawning:
- Huge pets sometimes don't work properly in the spire
- After teleporting to a floor, pets may not appear
- Some attacks (like Sproutusk) may not deal damage

Floor 40 Boss Issue:
- Mountusk boss has high regeneration
- If pushed too far, it heals back to full HP
- You need sustained high damage to defeat it

Tips:
- Bring regular (non-huge) pets as backup
- Don't knock the boss too far back
- Stay close to maintain consistent damage

During some updates, Frostoise and Fluffairy were accidentally swapped:

- Catching Frostoise would give you Fluffairy
- Catching Fluffairy would give you Frostoise

Solution:
- If you want Fluffairy, catch Frostoise (or vice versa)
- This bug was identified during the Thanksgiving event
- Check your inventory to confirm what you actually received

This has been reported to developers and may be fixed in patches.

The Dragon Cannelloni purchase has had some known issues:

Disappearing Dragon:
- Some players report the dragon vanishing from inventory
- This appears to happen after certain game updates
- Create a support ticket with proof of purchase

Stat Issues:
- Dragon Cannelloni stats may not increase properly when leveling
- This is a known bug being addressed

To Get Help:
1. Go to the Discord server
2. Create a support ticket
3. Include screenshots/proof of purchase
4. Developers have been restoring lost items

This is an unintended exploit/bug that allows any mount to fly:

How it works:
- Spam the mount button (M) and jump button simultaneously
- On mobile: hold jump and spam mount button
- This causes the mount to gain altitude

Note: This exploit may be patched in future updates. It's useful for:
- Reaching Frost Isle without a turtle
- Collecting eggs in hard-to-reach places
- Faster travel

Warning: Using exploits may result in account action in some games, though this one has been widely used.

Players reported issues with Flarecast Feathers during the Thanksgiving event:

Known Issues:
1. Feathers from boss kills and daily rewards show separately
2. Total count may not display correctly in shop
3. Some boss kills don't award feathers

Solutions:
- Check both your inventory AND currency display
- Rejoin to refresh feather count
- Use code "feather200" for bonus feathers

Feather Farming:
- Boss drops ~15-35 feathers per kill
- Daily rewards give additional feathers
- Event shop items require 100-2000 feathers
