Talk:Monster Rearing

From FFXI Wiki

"Have all gathering locations be of rank four or higher"
I still have my Garden Furrows at rank 3 and yet I just unlocked Monster Rearing.
Pond Dredger & Coastal Fishing Net at rank 5.
Mineral Vein & Arboreal Grove at rank 4. --Niamor (talk) 20:40, 21 October 2016 (UTC)


Who do/did you have employed? --Spicyryan (talk) 21:55, 21 October 2016 (UTC)


I employed Susuroon and Kuyin Hathdenna once, none were there when I got the cutscene. --Niamor (talk) 22:04, 21 October 2016 (UTC)


Maybe it is an average rank of 4.

[Floor](3 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5) / 5 = 4.

If you had 1, 4, 5 , 5 , 5 in anything and unlocked it then this would prove true. It could even be a minimum rank for each but an average higher than the minimum. --Spicyryan (talk) 22:10, 21 October 2016 (UTC)


That might be it yes. --Niamor (talk) 22:31, 21 October 2016 (UTC)


I'm trying to evolve my Pequetender to a Sabotender, it has 3 stars and ive fed it a burdock root (according to the chart this should evolve it) three times and it just gets angry but it does squirm. Does it take a few times before it changes? --Tigertail (talk) 04:57, 16 November 2016 (UTC)


Tigertail yes it is completely random, and it will piss it off as it says so you should poke it to keep it happy.

On that note it seems the sheep will not evolve into a ram until at least 2.5 stars when feeding Great Boyahda Moss. Is there a good way to track this info on the main chart? --Mudcake (talk) 00:27, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

I am feeding a crab on 2 stars Coral Butterfly and getting no message, so keen to see if this changes at 2.5 stars --Dibstaru (talk) 17:45, 30 December 2020 (EST)

Confirmed, Crab requires ★★☆ for an evolution message --Dibstaru (talk) 14:27, 5 January 2021 (EST)

Behemoth Cub => Behemoth

I just fed him meat everyday and never interacted with him. Today he turned into a Behemoth without the Beastly Shank evolution food. -- Dibstaru (talk) 15:31, 8 August 2019‎‎ (UTC)

King Behemoth Evolution

Two star King Behemoth, fed him a Dragon Meat, no evolution message at all. -- Dibstaru (talk) 15:03, 28 September 2019‎ (UTC)

Mons generally need 2.5+ stars before they will evolve. And be sure to sign your posts. All it takes is ~~~~ -- FaeQueenCory (talk) 16:02, 28 September 2019 (EDT)
