Part 1 covers General Rules of Thumb, 1. Monsters, and 2. Monsters. Chapter 2 covers 3., 4., and 5. Monsters. What and Who Is This Guide For? There are over 550 unique monsters in Summoners War, and this guide is to help you understand which mons are worth keeping, why you should build them, and (equally important) when you should build them. Kaz (Water Samurai) is a good speed based attacker with a set of four skills in Summoners War available as a fusionable monster and needed to complete the Light Paladin fusion Like other samurais he has the fourth skill which can be activated by using his other skills. His fourth skill deals a grea. Damage calculations in Summoners War are conducted in two phases: skill damage calculation, and damage reduction calculation. Skill damage calculations involve factoring in various factors like stats and multipliers, while the damage reduction phase takes the raw damage of a skill and reduces it based on the defense of the monster being attacked.

The purpose of this guide is to list and rank the best monsters in Summoners War broken down by grade (Nat 3, Nat 4, etc.) and by what they’re good for, PvE or PvP. This guide will help you know which Summoners War Monsters you should keep and build.

Here is the criteria I used for determining the rankings:

How many places you can use the monster in
How good the monster is in those places
How hard is it to replace this monster

*Note*: Where did dmg modifiers go 2. This criteria is why Lushen is ranked #1 on the 4-star lists, Lushen is used in so many places while also being the best monster for his role of AoE damage dealer and having almost no replacement.

This guide is useful for determining which monsters you should work on farming and building next. You can also use this list to help you determine which monsters you should use your Summoning Stones to try and get.

For that reason, I did not include any non-farmable Nat 5’s because the list would get way too long and most players will not have access to them anyways.

Here is the criteria I used for determining what each monster is 'Good For':

The monster has to be better than other F2P or easily obtainable options, for example Lapis is not good for DB10 because Sigmarus is a better replacement and is available for everyone to fuse.

While Lapis is usable in DB10 she is not good for DB10 because you should never use her for DB10 over Sigmarus.

Keep in mind that the rankings for each monster are based on how good the monster is in Player Vs. Environment (PvE) content. However, I will also list where that monster is good in PvP.
