Combo

Combos are boosts given to certain parameters (Attack, Defense, HP, Accuracy, Dodge, or Agility) a boost if a party of monsters shares a similar quality. Only full parties with five different monsters will have combos. Partial parties or parties with a repeating monster will NOT receive combos. Normal Versions and + Versions of monsters count as different, meaning a party can have the A Version and A+ Version and still receive combos.

Below is a list of the combos found in Dark Summoner:

Sample Combos

Below are some "natural" 5x combos; in theory, it would be possible to get a 6x combo by using souls to replace the skills of a 5x combo team of monsters.

5x - AA+ Combos

ATK +55%, DEF +35%
Note: This is currently one of 2 possible formations which allows the player to achieve 5x combo combined with agility.

4x - A+ Combos

Below are commonly used monster formations that utilize 4x combos. The player should determine which monsters they wish to use in the combo, and consider the skills/bp necessary/final team stats.

Note: The combo teams below show the unwinged monsters. you may throw in up to 4 wingeds and still have a 4x combo. Don't worry if you think some monsters are weak, they could very well cut you on bp costs, be easier to obtain for you, or work for personal/aesthetic reasons. (Low bp is a foolish reason to write a monster off.)

Impulse A+ Demon

Rarity A+, Impulse, Species (Demon), Level

ATK +40%, DEF +35%

Note: This is the classic sin demon team. It features agility, along with a strong monster package, costing an impressive 113 bp to run. There are many options, and this is a very popular team.

Psycho A+ Demon

Rarity A+, Psycho, Species (Demon), Level

ATK +40%, DEF +35%

Note: This is the classic psycho demon team. It features agility along with a strong monster package, costing 133 bp to run. Again, many options, revolving primarily around Death Call Covenant. Can be very expensive.

Covert A+ Beast

Rarity A+, Covert, Species (Beast), Level

ATK +40%, DEF +35%

Note that you can get a x4 combo team with agility and can cost 155bp to run although three of the monsters don't have skills(unless through skill change).

Psycho A+ Brute

Rarity A+, Psycho, Species (Brute), Level

ATK +40%, DEF +35%

Note: Lance and Cu Chulainn's Covert Down skills will not stack.
