AboutTrey McGowan Expertise I can answer strategy questions for just about any video games. RPGs and collecting/raising sims are my major specialty, though I am also experienced in general strategy games, a variety of MMORPGs, and possibly even some much more esoteric ones. I can't promise that I'll be able to answer all your questions from personal experience, but I can promise that if I can't, I will do my utmost to research the answer before I give it to you.
Best consoles to ask about: NES, SNES, GB/GBC, GBA, Playstation, Playstation II. If you are asking outside of this list, please give a little extra time for some research to be done on the game.
Please note: if you are wanting a particular version of strategy (i.e. a *fast* playthrough, a powerful playthrough, a challenge game, a specific boss beat in a specific way), make sure the details are added. The more I know about what *you* want to know, the better.
Experience I am an avid player of video games of various types, including RPGs, strategy games, MMORPGs, et cetera. I have been playing since the Atari 1300 days, and even back then, learning the strategy and the like of the games was as interesting as beating it.

Its Rick again. I will be constantly looking for tablets so I can aqiire the wind drums.
I remember last time I played this game I had them and it seemed to make the monsters training percetages go up almost always into the 70's and 80's. As were now they are always in the 40's or even lower sometimes. thanks for the tip on the wind drums I had totally forgot about them. I have a question about all the useless crap you find while exploring such as bone, toy glasses, yarn ball, junk toy, battle cards, does any of this stuff really serve any kind of purpose, or is it just a waste of space. I have sweet insence on my ranch and it seems to keep thier tiredness down quite a bit so maybe when I aquire the wind drums it will help counter balance the tiredness they cause what do you think.
Answer Hi, Rick!
That 'useless crap' is not so useless if you enjoy giving your monsters presents! It will raise their loyalty and happiness slightly, and very potentially lower stress a little. Always good to keep a few toys around for the 'just in case', though you can probably sell or discard most of them. They're basically just playthings for your monsters.
As for the counterbalance, it's not known how much the Incense takes and how much the Drums add. Therefore, I would just say 'experiment'. It's likely that yes, it will be the perfect balance (evening things out), but it's impossible to tell until you've given it a try.
Due to how many follow-ups you've given, I'm going to have to, for the moment, put a 'Enough for now' on this one. Play a while and then get back to me if you get stuck. :) Feedback and comments are certainly still welcome, though, and if you *are* stuck after a while, then hit me up again!
