This feature directly addresses a common community critique: the lack of incentive to use farm-bred monsters in combat compared to plot-essential "permanent" party members. It would give monsters a purpose beyond generating passive income or waiting for their "graduation" into the Central Kingdom. Feature Concept: Monster Mission & Expedition Desk
: Instead of manual grinding, send a squad of monsters to specific dungeon floors (like the Forest or Savannah) to retrieve low-to-mid-tier resources like metal, wood, and stone.
: It gives players a reason to min-max their breeding for specific "Explorer" builds, rather than just "Farmer" or "Fighter" builds. Cloud Meadow
: It connects the breeding, farming, and dungeon-crawling systems into a more cohesive cycle. Cloud Meadow - Steam
: Monsters gain experience and loyalty while away, making them more useful for breeding or higher-level combat if you ever decide to swap them into your main party. This feature directly addresses a common community critique:
: Players can focus on the story and main dungeon progression while their farm monsters handle the resource gathering needed for high-tier farm upgrades.
: The desk could be upgraded using Ley Shards to allow for more simultaneous expeditions or to provide a "Remote Market" function, letting you sell gathered materials directly from the farm. Why This Is Useful : It gives players a reason to min-max
: Higher stats increase the speed of completion and the amount of heavy materials (stone/metal) gathered.
