Monster Rearing - Mandragora

One of my Mandragora Sproutlings evolved naturally today!



Mandragora Interations
Poke: Highly resonated
Liquids: Highly resonated

No KIs from the Adenium or Korrigan yet.

Ahh yeah, it's been a while. So the chances are Ambrosia is just a nice food to feed it if you want to, but is definitely not for evolving the sapling stage at least.

Are there any possible evolution foods I could try before it does so naturally?

You can try anything on Fae's list here that has not already been done:

What do you think are the most likely? I can try any til it ends up evolving naturally, which could be tomorrow or the next day, so we're probably limited. Yellow Ginseng like Fae said perhaps?

Yeah most of the time it seems to be something from a neutral/category the monster likes to normally eat.

Ok I'll try Yellow Ginseng in a few, if I can get hold of one.

You can scratch Dragonfruit and Kitron off the list. Both made mine visibly angry. -_-

Just to make sure, the size is 2 or 2.5 stars, right?

Three stars in both instances.

Can't seem to find any yellow ginseng, so I'll have to try something else.

Edit: Tried Moko Grass, said it didn't go over well.

I have some Yellow Ginseng. I'll try it tomorrow.

3-star Mandragora Sproutling > Yellow Ginseng > Visibly angry, no other effect. No good. :(

3-Star Mandy Sapling, tried Elixir. Resonated strong, but no shudder or squrim :(

Has anyone tried just feeding them a Cursed Beverage or Cursed Soup..?

I have a sproutling at 2 stars right now. What exactly are you guys trying to get it to turn into?

We are looking for a Lycopodium, and we are assuming it comes from a Mandragora Sproutling or an adult Mandragora.

Underlined portions denote that it is confirmed

Current theoretical paths
Mandy Sprouting -> 2.5 Stars=Feed: Acidic Humus -> Korrigan -> Feed: Ambrosia or Amrita -> Pachypodium
Mandy Sprouting -> 2.5 Stars=Feed: Alkaline Humus -> Adenium -> Natural evolution -> Elder Adenium
Mandy Sprouting -> Natural evolution -> Mandragora -> Natural evolution -> Elder Mandragora
Mandy Sprouting -> Natural evolution -> Mandragora -> Feed: Watermelon -> Citrullus
Mandy Sprouting -> Natural evolution -> Mandragora -> Feed: Saruta Orange -> Lycopdoium -> Feed: Ambrosia or Amrita -> Ake-Ome
OR
Mandy Sprouting -> Feed: ??? -> Lycopdoium -> Feed: Ambrosia or Amrita -> Ake-Ome

Tried Moon Carrot because it was in the login campaign, and also Distilled Water yesterday. No squirms for either.

Tried Persikos but it got angry.

I managed to get the Korrigan memento today, finally:



No Adenium KI yet.

I have a wild idea… the other two evolution items were pop items from Abyssea, so why couldn’t this one be a pop item, too? Lycopodium is a variety of moss. A quick search reveals there is exactly one such pop item from Abyssea - Konschtat: Snakeskin Moss.

Has anyone tried it..?

It would have been added to the patch notes as a "new monster food". We are using the list of known monster food to get it to evolve. Ideally if tried, nothing should happen.

Agaricus, 2.5 Star Sapling got visibly angry

I know… we’ve read the patch notes and they’re not always accurate. Ambrosia wasn’t even included in the English patch notes. All the options have been tried already, no? Just trying to consider other options.

Ok. I’ll help try some things soon when mine gets to 2.5 stars. I have lots of random cooking things on mules so I’ll do some of them.

Nope, if we exhausted our options then I would say go for it. Here is what is left to try from options we know are food.

Can scratch Faerie Apple off the list. No go. Will try Yagudo Cherries tomorrow.

Not holy water. 3 star Sproutling. It strongly resonated tho

3-stary Mandragora Sproutling > Yagudo Cherry > Visibly angry... no go. -_-;

Updated list. My other Sproutling is a normal Mandragora now, so I cant test any until my next round of monsters.

2.5 Star Mandy Saplings:

Millioncorn (visibly angry)
Buffalo Meat (strongly resonated)

Maybe run through the rest of the meats first?

Mine evolved today, so can no longer help (I was going to try the carrots). Is there anything to find on the Mandragora stage?
