It would help if people understood what they were reading Vheod. Here the first part of my post explaining what the numbers mean.

Ever wonder what your effect your actions and the items have on your monster? With the help of a Gameshark Pro and Xianaix's code guide, I located the memory locations that govern your monster's fatigue, stress, loyalty, form and nature. Using these tools an info, I have begun a project to discover just exactly what effect certains actions and items have on a monster.

Before beginning, I'll explain some things about the values themselves.

STRESS AND FATIGUE

Stress and Fatigue are rated on a scale of 0 - 100. 0 = no stress/fatigue 100 = max stress/fatigue. This value is altered by items that you give your monster, your actions while raising the monster, stable size, and certain items in your possession. Here are some scales to illustrate.

Stress

0 (no stress) <-------------------->100 (runaway)

Fatigue

0 (very well) <-------------------->100 (sickness)

The closer the stress and fatigue values are to the high end of the spectrum, the greater the danger of the monster running away/getting sick.

LOYALTY AND RAISING STYLE

Loyalty in Monster Rancher 2 is actually determined by two values, Spoil and Fear. Both of these values are rated from 0 - 100 and loyalty is calculated by determining the average of these two values. Raising style is also influenced by these values. The relationship of these two values determine your raising style, as shown by this chart.

Spoil much greater than Fear = Doting Spoil somewhat greater than Fear = Fond Spoil slightly greater than Fear = Soft Spoil and Fear are roughly equal = Even Fear slightly greater than Spoil = Strict Fear somewhat greater than Spoil = Harsh Fear much greater than Spoil = Spartan

Note that this dual loyalty system is why trainers that spoil their monsters have trouble getting their monster's loyalty much beyond 50.

FORM

I don't know much yet on how form affect your monster's performance ( I'll do some experiments on this in the future), but I do know that Form is rated on a scale of -100 to +100, illustrated here.

(-100, Skinny)<----------(0, Normal)---------->(+100, Plump)

NATURE

The monster's nature is also rated on a scale form -100 to +100, shown here.

(-100, Worst)<----------(0, Neutral)---------->(+100, Best)

This value, naturally, determines your monster's general attitude.

That could have been helpful...

-- Vheod (Vheod@homail.com), February 23, 2000.

Yeah, I was gonna mention that. It would be quite hard for somebody to have an idea of what a +10 does. There's nothing to relate to....

-- RNA (RNA@Ribosome.nuc), February 24, 2000.

This is great! However, I would also like to know the effects of work, play, etc. according to the continuum you set up. For instance, a Hard Work that the monster likes, doesn't like, Light Work, food that they like, etc. Anyone know?

-- G.S. (gatsby@autobahn.org), February 24, 2000.

I'm working on foods right now. The list is still incomplete. Anyone know of a monster that's NEUTRAL towards potatoes?

-- Dark Phoenix (Arax7@aol.com), February 24, 2000.

i think some gali breeds are neutral towards them. most liked them, though.
