Default Extra treasure without killing the monster?

That was the most appropriate title i could think for the next question.

Theres a fight with a monster. "+5 to the monster and get +1 treasure after winning" card drops down. "The monster is dead" card drops down. Will you get +1 treasures or normal?

You get the +1. I love being a wizard and adding monster enhancers before charming.

If I'm reading you correctly you're talking about a monster enhancer that adds an extra treasure to it. Now what you need to bear in mind is that in order for the player to be able to collect any treasure(s) from a combat, the monster(s) in it need to be either killed by combat strength or defeated by use of a class ability or card that ends the combat but allows for the treasure(s) to be obtained i.e. Pollymorph Potion or Magic Lamp.

Now, in the specific situation you described, I would dare to say that the extra treasure from the +5 enhancer cannot be collected because the extra treasure is added to the ones that the monster would have yielded if killed/defeated. I don't remember the exact text of "The Monster is Dead", but I think it doesn't allow the player to receive neither experience nor treasure.

I'm not 100% sure about this, so let's wait for Andrew or MM to see what they say about it.

The card says something like (we don't play the english version) "The monster is dead without a fight, ... bla bla ... You can collect the treasure."

Yes, I thought it was a card like "Out to Lunch" that doesn't allow getting treasures from the fight.

To recap: If the card ends the fight and lets you pick up treasure(s) from the monster, and the monster had an enhancement placed on it that gave it extra treasure, you take that extra treasure as well.
