Monster Medals

Monster Medals are medals that you can earn by defeating Monsters. Depending on how fast you defeat a monster, you can earn a gold, silver, or bronze medal (or no medal at all). When you earn a gold medal, you will also earn skill point(s). Note that the medal system is different than Achievements.

To earn a gold medal you must defeat a monster within 24 hours of the monster being summoned. You must also put in a decent effort into taking down the monster. Each monster requires you to do a minimum amount of damage, or spend a minimum amount of stamina, to earn a medal. The specific damage/stamina needed is somewhat unknown, but if you deal at least the following amount of damage, you will earn a gold medal:
