Why Breed Entbrat?

There are several compelling reasons to breed Entbrat:

* Completing Your Island: Entbrat significantly enhances the overall soundscape of your island. His deep voice helps to fill out the harmony and make the island sound more complete.
* Breeding Other Monsters: Entbrat is a necessary component in breeding many rare and powerful monsters, including some of the Ethereal monsters. He opens up a whole new world of breeding possibilities.
* Coin Production: Entbrat generates a good amount of coins, especially when leveled up and placed in a suitable habitat. He can contribute significantly to your island’s economy.
* Achievement Completion: Some achievements require you to breed or own an Entbrat, so obtaining him is essential for completing the game.
* Collection and Completionism: For many players, collecting all the monsters is a major part of the enjoyment. Entbrat is a key monster to obtain to fill out your collection.

Understanding Breeding Mechanics

Before we dive into the specific breeding combinations for Entbrat, it’s crucial to understand the basic mechanics of breeding in My Singing Monsters.

The Breeding Structure:

Every island has a Breeding Structure (also called a Breeding Sanctuary or Breeding Bonanza if upgraded). This is where you combine two monsters in an attempt to create a new one. The game uses a probability system, so there’s always a chance of failure, even with the correct combination.

Elements and Combinations:

The elements of the two monsters you breed together determine the possible outcomes. The game checks to see if the combination of elements could potentially result in any monsters. If it does, the game then calculates the probability of each possible outcome based on several factors, including:

* The Monsters Used: Some monsters have a higher probability of producing specific results than others.
* Torch Status: Lighting your Wishing Torches increases your chances of breeding rare monsters.
* Breeding Structures Upgrades: Upgrading your Breeding Structure can slightly increase the probability of success.
* Monster Levels: While not definitively proven, some players believe that higher-level monsters have a better chance of producing desired results.

Breeding Time:

Each monster has a specific breeding time. When you attempt to breed a monster, the game displays the breeding time for the *most likely* outcome. This means that if you see a shorter breeding time than Entbrat’s 36 hours, it indicates you haven’t successfully bred an Entbrat and instead bred a different monster with a shorter breeding time (usually a single- or double-element monster).

The Best Breeding Combinations for Entbrat

There are a few breeding combinations that can result in Entbrat. Here are the most effective and commonly used methods:

1. T-Rox + Potbelly

This is generally considered the *best* combination for breeding Entbrat. Here’s why:

* Availability: Both T-Rox and Potbelly are relatively easy to obtain early in the game.
* Cost-Effective: They don’t require any special breeding events or rare monsters.
* Good Probability: This combination offers a relatively good chance of success, although it still requires patience.

Detailed Steps:

1. Obtain a T-Rox: Breed a Maw (Earth, Water) and a Mammott (Earth, Air).
2. Obtain a Potbelly: This monster is available for purchase in the market for coins.
3. Place Both Monsters in the Breeding Structure: Ensure both monsters are placed in the Breeding Structure on the island you wish to breed Entbrat on.
4. Select T-Rox and Potbelly: Choose T-Rox as the first monster and Potbelly as the second (the order generally doesn’t matter, but this is the commonly recommended order).
5. Initiate Breeding: Start the breeding process.
6. Wait and Observe: The breeding time displayed will give you an indication of the outcome. If it shows 36 hours, you’ve successfully bred an Entbrat! If it shows a shorter time, you’ve bred a different monster and need to try again.
7. Speed Up (Optional): You can spend diamonds to speed up the breeding process, but this is generally not recommended unless you’re very impatient or have a surplus of diamonds.
8. Hatch the Egg: Once the breeding is complete, place the egg in the Nursery. Once hatched place the Entbrat into a suitable habitat.
9. Repeat if Necessary: Breeding Entbrat can take multiple attempts. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get him on your first try. Keep breeding, and eventually, you’ll succeed.

2. Bowgart + Clamble

This is another viable combination for breeding Entbrat. It can be slightly more challenging since Bowgart can be harder to obtain early in the game.

Detailed Steps:

1. Obtain a Bowgart: Breed a Mammott (Earth, Air) and a Toe Jammer (Water).
2. Obtain a Clamble: Breed a T-Rox (Earth, Water, Air) and a Pompom (Plant, Earth, Water, Air).
3. Place Both Monsters in the Breeding Structure: Make sure both monsters are on the island you are breeding on.
4. Select Bowgart and Clamble: Pick the order of the monsters (the order generally doesn’t matter).
5. Initiate Breeding: Commence the breeding process.
6. Wait and Observe: Keep an eye on the breeding time to see if it is 36 hours.
7. Speed Up (Optional): Spending diamonds can shorten the breeding time if you are willing to do so.
8. Hatch the Egg: Move the egg from the Breeding Structure to the Nursery.
9. Repeat if Necessary: Keep repeating steps 4-8 until you breed Entbrat.

3. Other Combinations

While T-Rox + Potbelly and Bowgart + Clamble are the most recommended, other combinations *theoretically* possible, though they are significantly less likely to succeed. These include any combination of a three-element monster containing Earth, Water, and Air (like T-Rox or Bowgart) with a single-element Plant monster (like Potbelly or Plant). The probability is much lower due to the increased number of possible outcomes.

Tips and Tricks for Breeding Entbrat

Here are some helpful tips to increase your chances of successfully breeding Entbrat:

* Light Your Wishing Torches: Each lit Wishing Torch increases your chances of breeding rare monsters. While it’s not a guarantee, it definitely improves your odds. Having all ten torches lit significantly increases the odds of breeding Entbrat. You can light torches yourself using diamonds or ask friends to light them for you.
* Upgrade Your Breeding Structure: Upgrading your Breeding Structure to the Breeding Bonanza provides a slight boost to breeding success rates. While the exact percentage isn’t publicly known, it’s generally considered a worthwhile investment, especially if you plan to breed many rare monsters.
* Be Patient: Breeding Entbrat can take time and multiple attempts. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t succeed immediately. Keep trying, and eventually, you’ll get him.
* Utilize Breeding Events: Keep an eye out for special breeding events that increase the chances of breeding specific monsters. These events can significantly improve your odds of getting an Entbrat.
* Manage Your Resources: Breeding failures can be costly, as you’ll need to spend coins to incubate the unwanted eggs. Make sure you have enough coins to continue breeding attempts.
* Level Up Your Monsters: Some players believe that breeding higher-level monsters increases the chances of success. While this hasn’t been officially confirmed by the game developers, it’s a common practice among experienced players, and it can’t hurt to try.
* Use Gems Wisely: Resist the temptation to use gems to speed up every breeding attempt. Save your gems for essential upgrades or for speeding up the breeding of rare monsters that are particularly difficult to obtain.
* Consider Monster Happiness: Happy monsters are more productive. Ensure your breeding monsters are happy by placing decorations that they like near their habitats. This might have a subtle positive effect on breeding success.
* Monitor Breeding Times: Pay close attention to the breeding time displayed in the Breeding Structure. This will give you an immediate indication of whether you’ve succeeded in breeding Entbrat or if you’ve created a different monster. The breeding time for Entbrat is 36 hours.
* Don’t Give Up: The most important tip is to persevere. Breeding Entbrat can be a challenging but rewarding experience. With patience, persistence, and a little bit of luck, you’ll eventually add this magnificent monster to your island.

Troubleshooting Breeding Issues

Sometimes, even with the right combination and all the tips and tricks, you might still struggle to breed Entbrat. Here are some common issues and how to troubleshoot them:

* Incorrect Combination: Double-check that you’re using the correct breeding combination. The most recommended is T-Rox + Potbelly. Ensure you haven’t accidentally selected the wrong monster.
* Not Enough Torches Lit: The more torches you have lit, the better your chances of breeding rare monsters. Try to light as many torches as possible before attempting to breed Entbrat.
* Low Monster Levels: While not definitively proven, try leveling up your breeding monsters to at least level 10. This might improve your chances of success.
* Poor Luck: Sometimes, it simply comes down to luck. The breeding process involves probability, so there’s always a chance of failure. Keep trying, and eventually, your luck will turn around.
* Glitch or Bug: In rare cases, there might be a glitch or bug in the game that’s preventing you from breeding Entbrat. If you suspect this is the case, try restarting the game or contacting customer support.
* Insufficient Coins: Ensure you have enough coins to hatch and place the resulting egg. If you are broke you will be unable to get Entbrat.

What to Do After Breeding Entbrat

Congratulations, you’ve finally bred an Entbrat! Here’s what to do next:

1. Hatch the Egg: Place the Entbrat egg in the Nursery and wait for it to hatch (36 hours). You can speed up the hatching process with diamonds, but it’s usually not necessary.
2. Place in a Suitable Habitat: Entbrat requires a habitat that can accommodate four-element monsters. Ensure you have a large enough habitat with enough space to place him.
3. Feed Entbrat: Feed your Entbrat to level him up. Higher-level monsters produce more coins and contribute more to the island’s overall happiness.
4. Enjoy His Song: Listen to Entbrat’s deep, resonant voice as he adds his unique sound to your island’s melody.
5. Breed More: Now that you have an Entbrat, you can use him to breed other rare and powerful monsters, expanding your collection and strengthening your island.

Entbrat’s Role in Breeding Other Monsters

Entbrat is a vital component for breeding some of the most sought-after monsters in My Singing Monsters. Here are a few notable examples:

* Ethereal Monsters: On Plant Island, breeding Entbrat with a three-element monster gives you a chance to breed an Ethereal monster. The specific Ethereal monster you get depends on the elements of the three-element monster you use.
* Rare Natural Monsters: Entbrat can be used in certain combinations during special events to breed rare versions of natural monsters.

Conclusion

Breeding Entbrat in My Singing Monsters can be a challenging but rewarding experience. By understanding the breeding mechanics, using the right combinations, following the tips and tricks outlined in this guide, and remaining patient, you’ll significantly increase your chances of adding this magnificent four-element monster to your collection.
