Series lore and name

At first, this egg with a cracked shell does not seem threatening, attacking for miniscule damage and casting low-level magic. Let it alone a few turns, however, and it will hatch into a possibly more dangerous monster. Take these out before they hatch, or take the gamble for better EXP.

Using Bad egg

Bad egg sits in the Slime family.

In DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Withered World you do not fight beside your monsters — you build the party and command it. Up to four monsters are active with four more in reserve, and synthesis is the main way to raise a keeper: combine two monsters from level 10 and the child inherits the parents' talents, with a Plus Value that can lift it past their rank.

About this page. Every field above is transcribed from the Dragon Quest Wiki and rebuilt whenever the source changes, so corrections propagate. DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Withered World ships on 3 December 2026 and has published no per-monster ranks, stats or synthesis recipes; where a value does not exist yet it is left out rather than estimated. The # number is this index's own alphabetical sequence, not an in-game dex number.
