We’re pretty much aligned with the type assignments KD suggested, and we’ll be implementing this idea in the next update, though not all of them, more or less.
As for type-killer skills, most of them are not core elements in team building (except for Humanoid-Killer), so we’re not too worried about them weakening certain waifus. What we’re more concerned about is whether dual-type makes certain combos too aggressive.
Our biggest concerns right now are:
- Beast (Shikabloom, Rodeknight)
- Bug (Calamitas, Beetlebrute, Mantisamurai)
- Bird (Soral, Plumesilisk)
We’d love your feedback. Do you think this change might push any of them into Which monsters need a Nerf? catergory?
We’re also planning to make Humanoid-type exclusive to waifus. You can think of it as the “goddess type.” For example, instead of being dual-typed, Deviladus will be just Demon, and Brynhildr will be Angelic, etc. We know this might make certain waifu bond quests a bit harder, I am sorry in advance.
Speaking of bond quests, currently, dual-typed doesn’t count toward bond battle requirements. (For example, Cactalars doesn’t count as a Plant type right now.) We’ll be working to improve that as well, to make things smoother for everyone.
