🌿 How do I get Spirit Branch Herb?

Spirit Branch Herb is a rare crafting material required to fuse and evolve certain pets (specifically to B-Rank, requiring 8 herbs). Source: It is a rare drop from the Mountusk boss. Drop Rate: The drop rate is reportedly very low. Players have shared experiences like killing the boss 30 times and only receiving 4 herbs. Tip: Be patient and keep farming Mountusk. It's a grind!

🔄 Is Trading available in Catch a Monster?

Currently, No. While "Trading" is one of the most requested features, it is not fully implemented for the general public. There are rumors about VIP-only trading or requiring a high Index Score (150+), but many players with high scores have confirmed they still cannot trade. Community Stance: The community is split. Some want trading to help friends, while others fear it will ruin the game economy and encourage botting.

🍪 Why is Gingerjoy so strong?

Gingerjoy is a limited-time event pet from the Holiday Update. Power Level: It is currently considered OP (Overpowered). Comparison: A low-rank (D-Rank) Gingerjoy can often out-damage high-rank (A/S) boss pets like Glazadon or Mountusk. Recommendation: Prioritize getting this pet while the event is active!

🐞 Common Bugs & Issues

Daily Spin Glitch: Many players report being unable to use the Daily Spin. The developers are aware of this issue. "Admin Abuse" Events: You might hear players talking about "Admin Abuse". This usually refers to admins spawning bosses or giving out rewards on weekends (often Saturdays). It's a fun bonus event, not malicious!
