Version 2.19 (March 2021)
(Not noted below)
- Flutterdrake’s “pair [move name]” moves renamed as “F.D. [move name]” to make it clearer what they need to pair with and for consistency with the new G.F. moves coming on the garden fairies and the P.G. pyramid golem moves.
Here’s a look at the new name colour for completing lvl 120 in Monster Bond Quest:
Version 2.19.1 (March 2021)
Urgent bug fixes on newly released monsters:
- Garden Fairy Sunflower’s Vigor Slayerbreak was acting as if it was Vigor Stealthbreak.
- Botan-Douji’s first form was weak to stun killer despite not having a stun move.
Version 2.20 (April 2021)
(Not noted below)
- Fixed a bug with Mantiferno’s accelerate entrance where the accelerate only lasted for one move use.
- Fixed a bug in PvP where if you input a move just as the timer hit 0s then using a move in the same position on the next monster’s turn would use the targeting of the previously input move (i.e. you could make any move become hit all).
- The bug listed below about Sakuralisk’s bloodthirst was actually an issue with dreamcrush counting as two kills for the user.
Version 2.21 (May 2021)
(Not noted below)
- Added minisplash to Yuki, so it can now use a move without sacrificing itself (very relevant for lining up Kuraokami’s moves).
- Added miniblight to Noxegg, so it can now use a move without sacrificing itself.
- Changed the friend chest so when you finish collecting your 5 free daily friend chests it closes the hatching menu rather than returning to its front page. This means people will no longer accidentally spend gems by over-clicking.
- Added the list of the monster pool for friend chest.
- Changed the wording on Lucifelle’s charm to say “by this skill” to make it clearer that the enemy can still be slept by other effects.
- Changed the name of poison gas+ to poisonous wind (so far only Gorgodrake has this move).
Version 2.21.1 (June 2021)
Urgent bug fix for PvP where players sometimes cannot take turns or skip, caused by changes made to fix the invisible monsters.
Version 2.22 (July 2021)
(Not noted below)
- Removed the ability to select your own shared monster if you befriend yourself.
- Improved some monsters’ move animations, specifically for buffs (e.g. cobalt coating, terminator mode).
- Achievement updates were a second page to all limited-time events as well as achievements for online story hell mode.
- Friend chests are now only 10 at a time and the daily free amount was increased from 5 to 10. When collecting the free 10 it no longer closes the hatching menu, it simply returns right back to the friend chest screen.
- Mythics now appear with +9 bonus when viewed in the monster bond quest screens.
- Persephia’s cost was reduced from 16 to 15.
- Medbie’s cost was reduced from 16 to 15.
- Rodeknight’s cost was reduced from 16 to 15.
- Fixed a bug where Sharkrex’s raw backbite could be used when you have a protector teammate but not used when you have a protector next in line.
- Fixed a bug where Cynthia’s quick draw could be used while having a Mantiferno teammate.
Version 2.23 (August 2021)
A little look at what having monsters with completed bond quest look like, with the new “stars rising” animation:
The new battle buff icons (previously only stealth, shield, overwatch, marked and hold ground):
(Not noted below)
- “friend code”, “restore data” and “restore code” have been renamed as “friend ID”, “transfer data” and “transfer number” to better explain their use.
- The background of the monsters menu screen is no longer black. It now shows the same as the current background screen of whatever section of the game you’re on.
- Changed the colour of poison text from orange to green to make it more distinctive and fitting.
- Added a pink shadow to the text of special ingredients mission for collecting the moalith.
- Removed the message when starting PvP matchmaking that warns you need a stable internet connection.
- Eggs now have a one-time option to buy a pack for 10 paid gems.
- Enrage teammate / vile rage now gives +100% attack stat to the target from 0-5* monsters (previously +50% and only 100% on 6-7* monsters).
Version 2.23.1 (September 2021)
- Visual bug fixes to a few things caused in version 2.23 update. For example, some players saw dotted lines in battles showing where buff icons are created.
- Fixed a visual bug with Island Challenge where the number of remaining entry tokens simply displays as “6”, rather than “X/6”.
Version 2.24 (October 2021)
Here’s what the PvP player timer is:
(Not noted below)
- Updated from unity 2017 to 2020, causing some unusual resizing issues for some players based on their device as well as other issues.
6th Anniversary (October 22nd)
^ NOTE: The legendary egg pool size has increased from 35 to 40 but the featured legendaries are still 15x boosted chance so they’ve dropped from 0.75% each to 0.706%. The overall chance for a featured legendary has dropped from 2.25% to 2.118%. I doubt this will make too much difference, it’s a decrease of about 6% featured legendaries from our gems and bear in mind our free gems have pretty much tripled now we’ve got the fortune shrine. The mythic pool size has increased from 15 to 21 but the featured mythic is boosted from 45x to 63x to compensate, maintaining the 0.75% drop rate. What this mainly means is the chance for specific standard pool mythics is now insanely low.
The “6th anniversary guaranteed egg” details:
The gem purchase deal:
The neo ticket:
Version 2.24.1 (October 2021)
- Fixed the app icon displaying as the unity logo after the previous update.
- Partially fixed the login issue caused by the latest update for all phones using non-English/Japanese/Chinese language.
Version 2.24.2 (October 2021)
- Fully fixed the login issues.
- Fixed ticket refilling display issues seen by some players, caused by the unity 2020 update.
- Fixed game freezing issues experienced when using sacrifice skills and other moves or parts of the game with a similar pop-up prompt.
Version 2.24.3 (November 2021)
- Fixed a mistake with Cephalogandr where the secret skill was infinite use.
- Corrected the wording on Garden Fairy Hibi’s skill G.F. Painful Grab so it no longer says it ignores sleep and shields (the target has to be poisoned, so this was irrelevant - most likely a remnant of a previous version of the skill where the enemy didn’t have to be poisoned).
- Fixed an issue with Wilhelmina’s first form where the moves did nothing to the target.
- Fixed an issue with gem purchases for some people where they would get an error and their bought gems would take a while to sync on their account.
Version 2.25 (December 2021)
(Not noted below)
- Fixed an issue caused in the latest update where it was not possible to click some buttons like the UI while in some parts of the game (e.g. all the buttons at the bottom while in a dungeon, the cancel button when searching for a match in PvP).
- Baby summon now creates a 1st form with the same bonus and stat buff as the monster which created it (e.g. An enemy Plumesilisk in PvE will create a +9 Cockiedrake with whatever stat buff the enemies have in that content).
- Reduced the damage dealt by fatal sting in line with its TU reduction (it’s now a slightly stronger poison touch).
