The Bestiary is a feature in the game that at the start lets you see the base stats of every monster you have encountered so far (HP, armor, resistance and EXP). You can find it in the “Bestiary” section of your guild menu.

However, the Bestiary can become a new upgrade center in your town similar to the Magic Anvil. There is an NPC named Balzarath that will initially appear outside the guild hall. If you speak to him he will tell you that he lost his Book Of Monsters in the Forsaken Tower’s Archives section (act 4), and he will ask you if you can get it back for him. Similar to the Magic you have a small chance to find the book while playing normal mode, and a near certain chance to find it while playing any level of NG+.

After you find the book and return to town, you will find Balzarath inside the Guild Hall now, with his book in front of him. If you go speak to him now, he will open the book and a new upgrade menu will open. In this menu you can scroll through every monster you have encountered and see their base stats like before, but you now also have the option of spending some Skill Stars to attune yourself against '''every single monster you have encountered.''' Attuning yourself against any monster will permanently increase damage done to them by 20%, and permanently reduces any damage you take from them by 5%.

Monsters are divided into 5 classes, similarly to how items are divided:

Orange: Final bosses. These monsters cost 10 Skill Stars to attune yourself against.

Purple: Non-final Bosses. These monsters cost 8 Skill Stars to attune yourself against.

Blue: Mini-boss monsters (larger monsters that have health bars). These monsters cost 6 Skill Stars to attune yourself against.

Green: Elite monsters (monsters with more difficult attacks). These monsters cost 4 Skill Stars to attune yourself against.

White: Normal monsters (the most common monsters with more basic attacks). These monsters cost 2 Skill Stars to attune yourself against.

 Note that the Book can be found within rooms revealed by pressing the button in the Archives and is marked with a purple beast icon on the map.
