Hey Monster Keepers, Were working hard on the next area and more new Monsters! In the mean time, we wanted to release an update with a balancing overhaul. Our main goal here, is to make normal battles and Keeper battles feel more similar. Here's some of the changes weve made to do this:

• Weve roughly doubled the player Monsters' Health.
• Healing and Shielding is no longer halved in Keeper Battles, damage multiplier was also adjusted.
• Wild Monsters' health is no longer as inflated as before compared to player Monsters. Instead, they get more damage reduction.
• Wild Monsters deal more damage.
• All passive effects which were related to max Monster health got halved (except for poison.)
