Certain monsters can be recruited by players beginning in version 2.4 Taming is done through a skill attack that creates a fixed 10% chance to capture the monster once it falls. The skill does not need to be the final blow of the battle; as long as it has been used over the course of the encounter the chance to recruit the beast is established. Monsters that have joined players are controlled through A.I. and essentially serve as party members for times when the player's fiends and comrades are offline. | Certain monsters can be recruited by players beginning in version 2.4 Taming is done through a skill attack that creates a fixed 10% chance to capture the monster once it falls.

While monsters retain a base chance to join the player upon defeat as in previous games, the chance can be greatly enhanced by using [[Monster munchies]] in battle. | |||

Recruitment is implemented via the ''Scout'' option in the battle menu. When selected, the player's team of monsters will perform a group assault on the target to impress the monster into joining. The percentile chance is displayed onscreen, and can easily reach 100% if the group's sum attack power is high enough. However, if the enemy is too durable then the assault can easily leave the player with a big fat 0%--it is imperative to apply [[Oomph]] and [[Sap]] to raise the chances even higher. | |||
*In Joker 2, tossing a bundle of [[Beastie bites]] at the foe will raise the chance by a flat 10%. | |||
