How to Obtain Monoco Skills¶
When you get Monoco, you’ll soon find out that Monoco has a bit of a foot fetish. Monoco gets his skills by devouring Nevron Feet. Nevrons are all the enemies you will fight throughout the game. When you come across a Nevron with a skill that you haven’t got yet, you’ll see the 
by its health bar. This means it has a skill you haven’t acquired yet.
Once you find the enemy, all you need to do is defeat it to get the skill; there isn’t anything else you need to do, and the skill is a 100% drop. When you’ve obtained the skill, go to the skill menu and place it on your skill bar as one of the six skills. We recommend having at least one skill for each mask. You can find out what we recommend for his best skills on our Best Monoco Skills Guide.
The skills below are listed in the order we got them and are separated by their mask. Note that the locations listed are not the only places you can get some of these skills, as you will find a lot of the Nevrons appearing in other dungeons or other places on the world map. The location we have below will 100% direct you to a Nevron with the skill though.
