Editing Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 Professional (section)

==New Features & system alterations==
*The overall difficulty curve has been increased slightly.
*All monsters can now be strengthened to ''X'' & ''XY'' status instead of only the [[chimaera]], [[conklave]], [[goodybag]], [[green dragon]], [[skeleton]], [[slime]], and [[teeny sanguini]]. Monsters of rank D and lower will have their stat caps raised by 25%, with ranks C, B, and A having their limits raised by 12.5%.
*When performing [[monster synthesis]], the level cap of the newly created monster is no longer dependent on levels of the component monsters as before. Instead only the "+" value matters to raise the level cap, reaching level 75 and level 100 at values of +4 and +10 respectively.
*If the sum of a synthesized monster's component levels are between 21 and 40 then half of the + value of the weaker monster will be added to the synthesized monster's total on top of the guaranteed +1. If both component monsters have a total level of 41 or higher, then the entire + value of the weaker monster is added to the synthesized monster's total along with the default +1.
*[[:Category:Dragon_Quest_Monsters:_Joker_2_Pro_enemies|124 new monsters have been added]].
*55 new skillsets have been added and adjustments have been made to existing sets.
