That's the only downside to the game I've found really, the fact that since monsters don't level up beyond upgrading their tiers you're often replacing weaker ones you've summoned. If you have a favorite it may not always be viable.
Yeah, I'm doing that. I was just waiting on some newer ones' summoning timer and am upgrading them now. I need some more gems though. I've been setting a timer for 36 minutes so I know when I can get a full haul of gems in between doing other things.

I think the cost for upgrading mixed monsters is pretty high in proportion to their actual power. As far as I can tell, they don't get a bigger boost from upgrades, so there isn't really a reason they should cost more to upgrade than a normal monster with similar stats. For example, Catos shouldn't cost 4 of each gem (20) to upgrade when you can get something much more powerful for less than 10 total. Actually upgrades in general are a bit disproportionately expensive.

I don't mind having to change parties though, really.

to the new players on the board I bought the $25 IAP and I got almost all the rares in the game. It will be quite hard to get any farther than the third tower with the common monsters. Try to earn all the colors on a tower except for red and white before you move onto the next tower. P.s. for the person saying upgrading with gems is expensive wait till it costs 6, 10, or 15 of each gem type to upgrade a monster then your talking about costing alot.

Yeah, I mean it's expensive in proportion to the summoning cost.

This game is surprisingly addictive. I've never played Pokemon and have been turned off by the whole genre but gave this a try based on this forum's reviews. I am very happy I did. This game is very enjoyable and rather addicting. I on level 71 of the fourth tower and haven't felt a need to use IAP - thank goodness because I hate the whole IAP model. I would recommend this game. Other than some misspellings it is a solid game.

So the new update is out. The tower bug is fixed. AND although the token farming system (a token for every summon) is gone, I think the devs made a good compromise. I've only tried with a few monsters, but if you master any of them and then unsummon, they all give tokens now. Even zombies. So you can still get tokens relatively easily, but not too easily. I've restarted my character and am having a great time all over again.

I downloaded MonTowers a little less than two days ago and ever since, I've been ridiculously hooked! I've also managed to spend more than my fair share on IAPs, but I don't feel all that bad about spending money to support Buff Stone since they've made a game that I really enjoy. Hell, I've spent more on console games that I've played once and have never touched again, and even some that I've yet to open.

I just finished the Demon Tower and am now waiting for the update to polish off the Hell Tower. I am currently at Level 45 - "Godlike Summoner" with 18 summon slots, a 20 Field Energy cap., 140/200 (7/20 Mix Monster Coins, 133 Tower Monster Coins) collected, and have 25/50 of the Game Center Achievements.

Does anyone have the Black Dragon? Seriously some of the rares are near %@#&ing impossible to get. I think the reason I've dropped so much on IAPs is the semi-cheap way they set up the mission objectives to include rares that are super hard to obtain by just defeating the monster in a Tower. So what do you do...? Gacha. I've probably spent 400+ coins trying to get different monsters. I wish Buff Stone would develop some code that eliminates higher level players from receiving low level monsters and mixing spells. It's pretty damn frustrating getting Novice Tower rares when you're this far/deep into the game.
