Monster Train 2 offers numerous options for upgrading your units, including permanent buffs and the Merchants of Steel, found between battles. These merchants provide a variety of unique upgrades, such as Largestone, Immortalstone, and Mossystone. To upgrade your units, you’ll need to spend gold. By default, each card has two upgrade slots, with the option to increase this limit using an artifact.
This guide will detail all the unit upgrades available in the game, including how to obtain additional upgrades through Celestial Alcoves and various game events.
How to Upgrade Your Units
Upgrades in Monster Train 2 mainly happen at the Merchants of Steel. These upgrade rooms appear between battles during your journey.
During each visit to the shop, you’ll find four upgrade options, and you’re allowed one reroll to see a different set of choices. These options can vary greatly in price, and the more valuable upgrades usually require over 100 gold.
Additionally, you can acquire upgrades from the Celestial Alcove, a rare upgrade room that may offer various events, including unit upgrades like Titanskin.
The room following the first battle will always feature both a Merchant of Steel and a Merchant of Magic.
