· When building a stat monster, your methodology of play should always come first. Below are my recommendations for each play style to start with.

Lineage Indifferent Players/Dirty Players:
1. Pick an heir born with at least 4,000 stats.

Lineage Important Players/Clean Players:
1. Pick an heir born with at least 300+ stats.

The rest of process will be exactly the same for both play styles.

1. Buy your heir as soon as you king your current king. This is important so that you can spend his entire life building his stats. Once your retire your current king, your heir will be aged down to 8 if you follow this rule. *** Note: Try to train your heir until he's 14 years and 11 months if you are able to.
2. Buy your heir as young as possible. [5 months or younger]
3. After giving stat building amusement items, tussle with your heir for a chance of gaining skills. [Amusement items listed below.]
4. Feed your heir every single day on a stat building diet. [Listed below.]
5. ALWAYS cub train.
6. Regarding cub training. If you buy your heir and he is a female, leave him as a female. This may sound a bit funny, but females gain cub training faster due to them hunting every 30 minutes as opposed to submales 1 hour. Of course, sex change mutated heirs before 2 years old. I recommend sex changing your heir the moment you hit 100% in cub training.

Food:
Reliable Foods (decent chance of getting stats)
1. Small Tortoise [ 0-1 Smarts]
2. Turtle Eggs: [ 0-1 Smarts]
3. Crocodile Eggs: [ 0-1 Strength]

Unreliable Foods (Stat chances are a bit rare)
4. Gazelle Carcass [ 0-1 Speed]
5. Fluffy Bunny [ 0-1 Speed, but note amusement before this one. Gives 10% mood]
6. Rat Carcass [ 0-1 stat, unsure if which]
7. Juicy Lizard [ 0-1 stat]
8. Jerboa Carcass [ Allegedly 0-3 stats]
9. Tree Agama [ Uncertain of stat gainage. 0-1(?)]
10. Crocodile Carcass [0-1(?)]

Amusement Items:
1. Kudu Horns [ 0-2 Strength or Agility]
2. Dry Palm Leaves [ 0-2 Smarts or Agility]
3. Certain feathers can give you stats, but I don't recommend using any feathers on your heir. They're too unreliable. Use the other items instead.

***Note: Experience items will not be listed here. You should NEVER give your heir any experience items. You can not preemptively gain level on your heir due to, when you king him, his levels will be wiped.

Food:
1. Egg Yolks [ 0-15 any stat]
2. Honeycomb [ 0-6 any stat. Note, fed after amusement, will add 10% mood]
3. Longfin Eel [ 0-1 Agility. Not recommended, too little gainage for rarity.]
4. Hippo Fat [ 0-1 Stamina. Not recommended either due to rarity and small gains.]

Amusement Items:
*** Note: In my own opinion, these items aren't worth the effort of using, but I thought I'd mention them regardless. All of these items give little stat gain for being pricy and/or rare. I'd recommend sticking to the cheaper options above.
1. Flamingo Legs: [ 0-2 Agility or Smarts]
2. Lovebird Plumage: [ 0-3 Agility, Stamina, or Speed]
3. Camel Toes: [ 0-2 Stamina or Speed]
4. Ostrich Fluff: [ 0-2 Stamina or Speed]

***Note: Experience items will not be in listed here. You should NEVER give your heir any experience items. You can not preemptively gain level on your heir due to, when you king him, his levels will be wiped.

1. Just patrol as much as you possibly can. And drop everything when your heir returns from patrolling to send him out again.
2. Feed every single day.
3. Amusement every single day.
4. This one I haven't confirmed, but I always tussle with my heir instead of playing. Tussling gains skill for both cubs and adolescents, I haven't confirmed it with adult males. Probably not.
6. When you patrol, always pick 10 squares to patrol in.

Personality:
· Below are personalities that I personally believe are the best for stat gainage depending on your preferred methodology of playing. These are ranked from, what I believe, is most useful.

For PVP Players:
1. Stoic [7% energy from a successful battle rather than -10%] *** NOTE: Available in May.
2. Arrogant [+5 exp per battle won]
3. Vicious [+4 EXP, +2 SB per battle]
4. Mysterious/Chivalrous [Additional damage in battles during night and day, respectively]

For Passive Players:
1. Candid [3% energy when claiming lionesses]
2. Hyperactive [30% extra energy] *** Candid might be the better option for reasons discussed later on.

Daily Tasks/Schedule:
· The foundation to a properly disciplined lion consistency. Below we will discuss how you should start your day from rollover to gain maximum stats.

Chronological Order
1. Immediately attack other players for skill, or, if you're unable to - for experience.
2. Eat your stat items before you do anything else. If you explore, your king will almost always eat during this.
3. Pick up quests in snake, finish them immediately if you have the items needed.
4. Send your lionesses to hunt.
5. Explore. During this, if you encounter the lioness that gives you the 'claim 50 lionesses' quest, ALWAYS approach her. Her quest is very important. You can get a good amount of EXP doing her requests. The lionesses you end up with, you can sell for karma! You can also sell the CRB'ed lionesses for 1 easily, someone will always buy them for that price. This is why Candid is, in my own option, the best personality for stats for passive players. You can encounter her after two rollovers once you finish her quest.
6. Spar with subordinate males daily. You can gain impression or experience doing this. It's only 10% energy.
7. While you wait for your energy to replenish, go to the Gorilla Enclave and take a quest from them. *** Note: NEVER accept impression here, always take experience as a reward and always take difficult quests.
8. Play Baoball.
9. Claim every lioness you come across.
10. If you're a more PVP-oriented player, fight everything. Literally everything. If you're not too into PVP, attack easier enemies. [Dogs, humans, small primates]
11. Level up as much as possible. Tilted Scene, a current stat monster user, has a good guide on leveling up stat gainage that I will link for more in-depth information on leveling up stat gainage. Click me to go to Tilted's Tutorial!
12. Attack for skill/experience as often as you can throughout the day.

Experience Items:
· Finally, the time as come to give your king experience items. You should always level up as much as your possibly can. Once again, I will reiterate, NEVER give your heir any experience items until he is kinged.

Experience Items:
1. Giant Tortoise: [ 300-500 EXP]
2. Coconut: [ 50 EXP]
3. Broken Drone [Chance for 50 EXP]
4. UAV Search and Rescue [ 25 EXP]
5. Lucky Foot: [Automatically wins whatever battle you're currently in] *** Note: Don't use this in easy enemies such as dogs or humans.
6. Dove Feast [ Gives 20% impression]

Energy Items:
· For more privileged players, I recommend using energy boosting items as much as you can.

1. Roasted Lamb/Red Bull [ Double energy every 8 hours] *** Note: Eat at exactly 00. Also note, these are basically the same item yet people price them different for whatever reason, never pay for a Red Bull when you can get a Roasted Lamb cheaper.
2. Meat Pie: [ Boosts you to 100% for every use] *** Note, pay 2 per use and nothing more.
3. Energy Boost [ Immediate boost to 100% energy]
4. Bone Marrow [ 20% Energy once a day]
5. Grubs [ 10% Energy]
6. Fermented Marula Fruit [ Unreliable, can increase or decrease your energy by 10%.] *** Note: I recommend exploring the moment you gain energy with this one as to get the most out of it.

January - The Great Hunger:
· The only alignment for this event storyline-wise is to work with Laharu. Whether or not you decide to kill or spare the Queen Mother doesn't affect anything as the rewards are both the same.

· Digging (2% energy) or donating skulls to The Boneyard can give your these items to buy.

February - Aphrodisia:

· This event has no storyline, but it does have a good part! This event you'll fight a lot of humans, thus, easy enemies. I do not recommend using Luck Feet on humans.

Currency is Rhino Beetles.

Notable Items:
· 20 Human Liver: [ You deal more damage in battles, the only downside is being unable to breed your lionesses until next rollover]

1. Fluffy Bunny: [ 0-1 Speed]
2. 20 Egg Yolk: [ 0-15 of any stat]
3. 6 HP Roasted Lambs: [ Replenish double energy for 8 hours. ***Note: Eat exactly at 00]

_________________________________________________________________
May Event - Championship:
· This event you should side with Vashkartzen. His quests are all about stat building, additionally, every 2 hours, you can boost your energy with him by 25%.

Currency is Manticora Beetles .

Notable Items:
1. 50 Giant Tortoise: [ 300-500 EXP]
2. 80 Red Bull: [ Replenishes double energy for 8 hours. *** Note: Eat exactly at 00]

_________________________________________________________________
June - Rise of The Serpent
· Alignment in this event depends on what base you'd like as all their quests are essentially the same and have the same reward. But, objectively speaking, Anubis has the easiest quests because you have to defeat 10 canids. Bast is also a decent choice since you'd have to defend 10 felines. *** Note: No stat items in this one.

Currency is Khepri Beetles
