“ | Rootitoots are natural-born hosts, blessing many a soirée with a knack for storytelling, an enviable wit, and general zest for life. A Rootitoot's dinner party traditionally offers as many dishes as it can carry upon its tubular vents, doubled. But don't overburden this Monster... oh, great... you had to have the Biiiiig Salad! | ” |

Description[]
Rootitoot is a Triple-Element Fire Monster found on Psychic Island and Amber Island. It was added on September 4th, 2019 during the 2.3.2 Psychic Island update. It is best obtained by breeding Flowah and Toe Jammer. By default, its breeding time is 20 hours long. As a Fire Triple-Elemental, Rootitoot has decent Coin production, though Gloptic is recommended.
On Amber Island, Rootitoot is only available at select times. When available, it is obtained by purchasing in the Market for 20 as a Vessel, which then can be revitalized by zapping eggs into it. As a Fire Triple-Elemental, Rootitoot has decent Relic production.
Song[]
Audio Sample:
Instrument: Oboe
Much like its counterpart in Dawn of Fire, Rootitoot uses the tube-like branches on its head to play an oboe-like melody. On Psychic Island, it plays alongside Phangler, Kayna, and Oaktopus. On Amber Island, it plays alongside Flum Ox, Boskus, Krillby, and Gnarls.
It plays its Psychic Island song in this pattern:
G A D, G B A D, G A D C.
VSTs[]
Virtual Studio Technology is an audio plugin software that has libraries of sound effects and synthesized instruments. Within these libraries are SoundFonts, which are the individual effects and instruments themselves. The Monster-Handlers utilize several VSTs to create the sounds of instrumental and sometimes vocal Monsters.

Breeding[]
Rootitoot requires the elements of Plant, Water, and Fire. Breeding combinations are as follows:
- Of these, Flowah+Toe Jammer is the best combination, as failing and breeding a Toe Jammer lets you retry the combo almost instantly.
Rootitoot can also be bred in a breeding failures. Some combinations that result in a Rootitoot in a breeding failure include:
- + Rootitoot and Rare Rootitoot
(Best choice, 100% chance of a Rootitoot if Rare Rootitoot is unavailable)
- + Rootitoot and Gloptic
(Good choice, very small chance of getting Gloptic)
Likes[]
Every Monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the Monster, the Monster's happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of the same liked item near a Monster won't increase its happiness by an additional amount. If there's a Unity Tree on the Island, items don't need to be near the Monster. Below are the things liked by Rootitoot:
- Kayna (requires level 9)
- Floogull (level 9) ()
- Ziggurab (level 9) ()
- Krillby (level 9) (,)
- Babayag Tower (level 15) ()
- Toob (level 10) ()
- Piney Tree (level 13) (,)
See the Likes page to view a complete list of all Monsters' likes.
Note: On Amber Island, all of Rootitoot's likes are only obtainable for a limited time, with the exception of Kayna. Amber Vessels must be revitalized before they count towards Rootitoot's happiness.

Revitalizing[]
On Amber Island, Rootitoot must be powered up rather than being bred. Unlike Wublins and Celestials, the allotted time to fill a Vessel does not start when the first egg is zapped, but are instead are only available to purchase and fill at select times. The inventory must be completed in this time. When a purchased vessel is incomplete after the time, it will disappear and half of the relics spent will be given back. You will also get the option to revive Rootitoot by purchasing the missing eggs with Diamonds. Eggs can be zapped from Mirror Islands instead of, or in conjunction with Natural Islands.

Filling In[]
Like other Monsters on Amber Island, Rootitoot can instead be filled in with Diamonds. Each egg can be filled in for 40. Rootitoot requires a total of 1,440 for all eggs to be filled.
Since all eggs have an equal Diamond fill cost, it is best to save your Diamonds for the Monsters that are harder to obtain. And oftentimes, it is cheaper to speed up eggs to zap from the Breeding Structure instead.
Wildcards may also be used when filling in a Rootitoot's inventory. Similarly, it's best to save them for harder to obtain Monsters.

Statistics[]
Earning Rate and Maximum Income[]
Earning rate is in Coins per minute or Relics per month (28 days) and depends on Happiness % (Likes increase Happiness) and Monster Level. Each Monster also has a maximum amount of income it can hold at a time. Increasing the Monster's Level also increases this limit.
Though the Relic Rate and Maximum is displayed in-game as a whole number value, internally these are decimal values. Where such values have been empirically found, they are provided in the table. When collecting from Rootitoot, you will only receive the whole number value generated.
Feeding Monsters[]
Each Monster needs to be fed four times before it reaches the next level. Increasing the Monster's level increases the Coins earned per minute, as well as the maximum Coins earned.

More info can be found in the Feeding article.
Egg Consumption[]
While trying to breed other Monsters (particularly Monsters with a very low chance of breeding), the following Vessels can be used to "dispose of" Rootitoot eggs immediately instead of putting them into a Nursery and having that Nursery not be available. Note that doing this for Rare Wublins will cause the Wublin to stop producing currency and the eggs will not expire.

Note that Monster eggs can only be "disposed of" before awakening Vessels; afterwards those Monsters will not accept any eggs. Also note that Monsters to which you have already disposed the number of Rootitoot eggs that it accepts, will no longer be available as a "recycle bin" for such eggs.

Notes[]
- Rootitoot's name may be a mix between the words: root and toot. Root because it is very tree-like, and trees have roots, and toot because you toot a horn, which is a wind instrument, like the instrument Rootitoot plays.
- Rootitoot was the first Triple-Elemental, and also the only new (re-introduced) Fire Monster, to appear on Psychic Island. The same applies to Sooza on Light Island, Ziggurab on Faerie Island, and Thrumble on Bone Island.
- Unlike in Dawn of Fire, Rootitoot's track is divided into 3 parts instead of a continuous sound.
- The "Biiiiig Salad" in Rootitoot's description is possibly a reference to a scene from Seinfeld.
- Rootitoot is the first Monster on Amber Island to have all four of its Likes available upon release.
- On Amber Island, there is a bug where one of Rootitoot's holes would disappear at the start of its song. This only occurs with its Common variant. This bug is yet to have been fixed.
