XI. FAQ

Monster Creation: To create a new monster in the lightning tower, first circle the Control Stick once. Then, hold the Control Stick up and click on the arrows by the "head." Repeat this process for other parts. Finally, click the Lightning Bolt in the lower right corner when finished.

Electro-Tracer: Ensure you are standing directly in front of the Wii sensor bar, perpendicular to your body. Try holding the Wiimote with both hands. If problems persist, try drawing only the major lines, letting go of the A and B buttons to "pick up" the pen. If you are still shaky, prop your arm on a stable surface like the floor, a couch arm, or a table.

Rocket Launching: Hold the Wiimote horizontally, with the A Button facing the ceiling. Do not confuse flicking the Wiimote up or down with left or right.

100% Experiments: Some experiments drain Quality over time and require scoring a point at the very last instant. Robo-Evolver, however, requires no mistakes at higher levels.

Item Drops: You receive a fourth item slot after battles because bosses drop their heads, which are entire limbs, in addition to ingredients.

Limb vs. Torso Kills: Destroying limbs is slightly more beneficial. In a sample of 140 torso and limb kills each (280 battles total), limb kills yielded 3% more key ingredients, 8% more secondary ingredients, and 5% more overall.

Part Capacity: You can hold 100 parts. There are 20 heads, 10 legs, 10 torsos, and 20 arms per discipline. An even split would be 8 heads, 6 legs, 6 torsos, and 12 arms, totaling 32 parts, leaving 4 extra. Alternatively, 6, 6, 6, and 12 parts would leave 10 extra.

Online Exclusives: There are no online exclusive ingredients or parts.

Online Ingredient Advantage: While you do not get your opponent's parts when you defeat them online, ingredients dropped are determined by your MSA Rank. Online matches are faster than story mode, allowing for quicker gathering of items with cooperation.

Wii-itis: If your arms, wrists, hands, or fingers hurt, tingle, feel odd, cold, numb, or hot, you may have developed Wii-itis. Take a couple of days rest from Monster Lab or any other game with heavy motion control, especially those involving hammering or wrist turns.
