Information
Source Monsters drop

The Monster Compendium is a book that can be dropped by monsters. The chance for a monster to drop the book starts at 0.01% and increases by 0.015% until it is dropped, which then the chance then stays at 0.05% permanently.[1]

The first reading grants the player the power that gives monsters a 3% chance to drop double loot. Once obtained, it can be found in the Player's Menu on the Special Items & Powers tab. Subsequent readings grant Combat XP.

Two copies of it can be traded to the Bookseller in exchange for a Slime Incubator or a Slime Egg-Press.

Trivia

  • It is possible to obtain two Prismatic Jelly using this book's power, although this has no effect on the Wizard's Special Order.
