Intro + How to search

 
Disclaimer: This guide is inspired by Kwyl’s guide, i noticed the guide is missing some monsters attack that may be added later by the author, so i decided to make my own tailored through my experience and helps from this guide’s comments. 
 
This guide does NOT contain weapon type weaknesses like slash, pierce, or blunt, because the information willl feel too crowded. 
 
This guide is made as an easy “cheatsheet” to know what attack patterns monsters uses. 
 
This guide is sorted alphabetically based on the Monsters Original Names (Sub-Species will be below the monsters’ original name) 
For example: Emerald Congalala will be below Congalala 
 
To quickly find the monster you looking for, use shortcut ” Ctrl + F “ and type the monster name.
