Its main purpose is to provide in-depth information on how the game works without giving away any of the secrets, story, etc. In terms of translations, I've taken a different approach in this document than my earlier FAQs, and instead of primarily using Japanese terminology romanized, I've made attempts at translating most of the words that can be done effectively. Any martial arts techniques, words with no English equivalent, or something that would sound really clunky in English, (e.g. the Thief Rank titles, which are mostly Yakuza ranks) I've left as romanized Japanese. I've tried to make translations consistent throughout the document, but I may have slipped in a few places. (I kind of stink in that department--when I deal with Japanese media, I tend to think in Japanese, rather than convert it in my head to English, which makes consistent translation hard) Please bear with me. The purpose of this FAQ is to assist people who bought the import version of Dragon Quest VII, but have limited or no Japanese ability. (Of course, if you are fluent, you may still find this document of use) This is not a Dragon Warrior VII FAQ. (if it ever gets released) Therefore, if DWVII comes out, sections of this document may not apply to it. If you are playing Dragon Warrior VII, please do not mail me about it. As I don't own a domestic PSX, I will not be able to play any domestic releases, so I will not be able to help you. For the same reason, I will not be making an adaptation of this document to better fit any domestic releases of Dragon Quest VII, though I may allow a friend to do so. Bottom line: If you are playing Dragon Warrior VII, use this document at your own risk, and don't expect me to be able to provide any clarification--any questions about any domestic releases will not be answered. I hate to be a bear like this, but I'm kind of between a rock and a hard place in this aspect. OK, enough yapping, onto the FAQ! ################################################################################ REVISION HISTORY: 1.1, 1/16/01: Large updates to several sections: updated resistance information and added Monster Job information, Palpunte effects, Summons. Also changed my mind on a couple of translations and adjusted them. 1.0, 10/6/00: Initial release ################################################################################ 2. GAMEPLAY BASICS ################################################################################ CONTROLS -------- Controls are pretty simple in DQVII. Control pad/left analog stick: Move the party or the cursor in a menu. Circle Button: Opens the command menu, and selects commands. X Button: Cancels commands and closes windows. Square Button: In town, zooms camera up to get a birds-eye view of your current area. On the world map, it will use your map to show your current location. Triangle Button: "Useful Button." When facing a person, it will talk to them. When facing something you can lift, it will pick up/throw the item. Otherwise, it will search the general area, open treasure chests, look in wells or cabinets, etc. L1/R1 Buttons Rotates the map counterclockwise/clockwise. L1 is the equivalent of the circle button when used in combat. L2/R2 buttons Rotates the map 45 degrees counterclockwise/clockwise Start Button Rotates the map so that north is facing up. ------------- MENU COMMANDS ------------- Non-Combat: Speak (はなす): Talk to the person you are facing. If nobody is facing you, then you will talk to the members of your party. They will give you hints, comment on the current situation, etc. Item (どうぐ): Item maintenance/usage. Before you can do anything with items, you need to select whose items you want to deal with. Once you select a character, you'll get the following options: Use (つかう): Use the item. Give (わたす): Give the item to someone else. After you select a person, you'll select a slot in their inventory. If you select an occupied slot, you will swap the items. If you give someone an item that they can equip, you'll get a message asking if you want to equip the item. Equip (そうび): Equip the item. Obviously you can't equip every item, nor can the bag equip anything (you won't even get this choice with the bag) Drop (すてる): Drop the item. Stop (やめる): Close all windows. Strength (つよさ): Look at your characters' status, either individually or as a group. Spells (じゅもん): Use your non-combat Spells and Abilities. Examine (しらべる): Search in front of you. If nothing is in front of you, you'll search the area around your feet. Plan (さくせん): Change several aspects of how you play/interface: Equip (そうび): Pick a character, and it asks you to equip something for each slot, showing you all the choices you've got based on what that character is carrying. Change Battle Plan (さくせんがえ): Change your characters' battle plans. More info on each plan is provided in the Combat section. Change Party Order (ならびがえ): Change your characters' marching order. Characters in front are attacked more often than characters in the rear. Clean up Items (どうぐせいり): Puts everything your characters aren't equipping into your bag. Clean up Bag (ふくろせいり): Rearranges the contents of your bag by item type or by Japanese alphabetical order. Combat Commands: Main Menu: You get this menu at the start of every round. Fight (たたかう): Fight the enemy. Talk (はなす): Talk to your party members. They'll give you hints, comment on the current status of the battle, etc. Spend too much time jabbering with your comrades and the enemy will attack and get a free round. "Too much time" is usually more than twice, but sometimes you can talk three times and still not lose your round. Sakusen (さくせん): Plan. Here you can change your characters' battle plans. See the Combat section for more details on each plan. Run (にげる): Try to run away. Sometimes you'll fail, and the monsters you're fighting will get a free shot at you. Once you choose to fight in a round, your options are as follows: Attack (こうげき): Use your weapon to physically attack the opponent. Spell (じゅもん): Cast one of your spells. Ability (とくぉ: Use one of your Abilities. Note: Your spells and skills are subdivided into "Damage," (ダメージ) "Healing," (かいふく) and "Other." (そのた) Item (どうぐ): Use an item. Note that during combat, you can only use items your character is currently carrying--any items in your bag are not available. Defend (ぼうぎょ): Defend. Reduces any physical damage done to your character via direct attacks. Equip (そうび): Swap weapons and armor. Like items, the only equipment you can swap is whatever you're currently carrying. ------------- STATUS SCREEN ------------- Here you can see all the relevent info on your characters. Here's a quick runthrough of each stat, and what it does. HP: Hit Points. How much life your character has left. If your character hits 0 HP, he/she dies. Dead characters need to either be brought back to life at a church for a fee, or revived through the use of magic. MP: Magic Power. Spells and some Abilities use up Magic Power. Run out of Magic Power, and you can't use them any more. Name: Your character's name. Job: The job your character is currently in. Rank: Your character's rank within that job. Gender (せいべつ): Gotta be one or the other. Level (レベル): Your character's current Experience level. Gold: The amount of gold you're currently holding. (Does not include bank balance) Power (ちから): Your character's strength. The stronger you are, the more damage you do in combat. Speed (すばやさ): Your character's speed. Generally, the fastest characters and monsters act first in combat, but not always. Defense (みのまもり): Your character's defense and overall toughness. Affects your defense rating. Intelligence (かしこさ): Your character's intelligence level. The higher your intelligence, the better your chance to resist magic. Style (かっこよさ): A measure of your character's physical beauty and style. This stat is influenced by the equipment your character is wearing. It has no impact on combat whatsoever, but is important in the Ranking system of the game. Attack Power (こうげき力): Calculated from your Power and the strength of your weapon. Defense Power (しゅび力): Calculated from your Defense and the strength of your armor. Max HP (さいだいHP): The maximum level your HP can go. Max MP (さいだいHP): The maximum level your MP can go to. Ex: Your character's current Experience Points. Raise your Experience high enough, and you'll go up levels. ------ COMBAT ------ Combat in DQVII is very similar to the earlier DQ games. Each battle is divided into "rounds" where all the actions take place. You decide what you want your party to do in the upcoming round, and once you confirm your decisions, the battle actually takes place. Enemies are subdivided into groups. Groups always break down by monster type, but you can have multiple groups of the same enemy. For example, you could have two groups of three Slimes. Every attack or spell either affects a single enemy, a group, or all enemies. For the purposes of enemy attacks, your entire party is considered one group. Attack Order: For the most part, the order in which you and your enemies act in a round is dependant upon your Speed ratings. Faster characters act first, slower characters act last. However, there is a randomness factor thrown in--just because your character is faster than the monsters is no guarantee that they won't get to strike first. The larger the gap between two characters' speed, the smaller the chance that the slower character will attack first, until that chance becomes 0. Resistances: There are eighteen basic resistances that every monster and character has in-game. Eight of them are damaged based--one for each of the six basic types of offensive spells, (Mera, Gira, Hyado, Io, Bagi, and Dein) one for flame attacks, and one for ice attacks. In addition, there are nine status resistances: Death attacks (includes Zaki spells), Paralysis, Poison, Manusa, Confusion, Sleep attacks (Includes Rariho spells), Nifuram, Rukani, Mahoton, and Mahotora. There are four levels of resistance for each attack. Someone with level 1 resistance to something will take full damage from the attack, and someone with level 4 resistance will be completely immune. With status resistances, it's a question of how often a spell will work; with level 1 resistance, spells of that type will always work; with level 4, they never will. By default, party members start with some innate resistance to Paralysis, Poison, Manusa, Mahoton, Confusion, Death, and Sleep, and immunity to Nifuram. Normally this won't change, but some armor will raise specific resistances, and there are spells to raise resistance as well. The only way to increase base resistance is through certain jobs. There is some equipment that actually reduces your magic resistance--in this case, it is possible to have spells do more damage than they are supposed to. (You won't see this with monsters, of course) Battle Plans: There are six Battle Plans that you can give each of your characters. Rather than earlier Dragon Quest games, where you would apply a single Plan to the entire party, you can hand out plans on an individual basis. Of course, you can apply the same Plan to your entire party. Plans affect the strategy the AI takes when fighting monsters. You can't apply any Plan to your Hero--you must always directly tell him what to do. The six plans are: Go all-out (ガンガンいこうぜ) This is a very offensive-oriented strategy. Characters using this Plan will do whatever possible to kill the enemies, using their most powerful techniques and fighting until they drop. They will pay no attention to MP consumption, and will put little to no attention on defensive, support, or healing. Do your best (バッチリがんばれ) This strategy is balanced between offense and defense. Characters using this Plan will usually fight to the best of their ability but not go overboard. They will focus on attacking the enemy, but will also heal themselves or party members should the need arises. Characters using this plan usually will not put much thought into support, however. They will tend to use MP at a moderate rate. Take care of yourselves (いのちだいじに) This is a defensive-oriented strategy. Characters using this Plan will put almost all of their energy into healing and support, only attacking if there is no need for defensive enhancement at all. They will have no qualms about using up their MP to heal the party either. Don't use spells (じゅもんつかうな) When you don't want your characters wasting their MP, this plan is the way to go. Characters using this plan will not cast any spells or use any techniques that consume MP, relying solely on physical attacks and techniques that do not use MP. In terms of offense/defense/support, this plan is close to the "Do your best" plan in that it tries to strike a balance between offense and defense. Leave it to me (おれにまかせろ) This was a useless Plan in DQ6, but now that you can assign it to an individual character, it has some merit in DQ7. People using this plan will not attack the enemy at all. Instead, they will focus all of their effort on using support abilities to buff the party (focusing on the Hero) and inflicting status ailments on the enemy. Follow orders (めいれいさせろ) If you don't want the AI deciding what your characters will do, use this Plan. Any characters using this Plan you control directly. Party members never disobey orders either. ################################################################################ 3. THE CHARACTERS ################################################################################ Here's a quick list of all the characters and their skills. So as not to include any spoilers, these blurbs are loosely based on those provided in the manual. :) HERO: (you) ----------- An ordinary 16-year-old boy who lives in a small fishing village. He wants to follow in the footsteps of his father and become a great fisherman. He has somewhat of an overly good-natured personality, and often gets taken advantage of by his childhood friend Maribel. Hero's Skills: Level 3: Hoimi Level 6: Skara Level 8: Rura Level 12: Behoimi MARIBEL: -------- The only daughter of Amitt, the backbone of Fishbell's economy. She loves to stick her neck into places where it doesn't belong, and has tried to sneak aboard her father's ship countless times. She's a typical stuck-up girl who thinks the world revolves around her. Maribel's Skills: Level 3: Mera Level 4: Rukani Level 5: Payback Level 7: Rariho Level 9: Riremitt Level 10: Hoimi Level 11: Manusa KEEFA GRAN: ----------- The 18-year-old son of the king of the country of Grand Estard. Having no interest in becoming the next king, he thinks only of going out on adventures, causing problems to all those around him. Because of his love for adventure, he is constantly sneaking out of the castle, and visiting your house. He thinks of you as his younger brother, and hangs out with you a lot. Keefa's Skills: Level 5: Flame Slash Level 9: Redirect Level 12: War Cry Charge Level 15: Zombie Slash Level 20: Vacuum Slash GABO: ---- An amiably naive young wild boy. Despite his youth, he has an incredible speed and constitution, which he uses to make short work of his enemies. He has a special affinity for wolves, whom he has a limited degree of control over. His origin of birth is unknown. Gabo's Skills: Level 2: Howl Level 4: Bite Level 6: Bash Into Level 8: Rend Level 13: Far Howl MELVIN: ------ The world is peaceful now, but when the Demonlord was alive, Melvin was the Legendary Hero that fought him alongside of God. While it is rumored that both God and the Demonlord died in the fight, nobody knows what happened to Melvin, or where he went afterwards. Despite the fact that he is an old man, Melvin is quite capable, and is a powerful fighter. Melvin's Skills: Starts with: Behoimi, Nifuram, Bagima, Io, Suteteko Dance, Nio's Stand, Rura, Riremitt Level 20: Zaoraru AIRA: ----- Despite her appearance, Aira is quite a swordswoman. Raised among the People of the Earth, it's said that her dancing is without peer. However, there is something about her origins of birth that she is not willing to reveal openly.... Aira's skills: Starts with: Gira, Flame Slash, War Cry Charge, Mahotora Dance, all Dancer Abilities Level 23: Song of the Spirits ################################################################################ 4. THE JOB SYSTEM ################################################################################ ---------------------- MECHANICS AND OVERVIEW ---------------------- If you've played Dragon Quest VI, the job system in DQVII is essentially the same. Reasonably early on in the game, you will find Darma, a palace where you can change your characters' professions. Everyone starts the game "jobless," with a profession which cannot be advanced. Once you change their jobs at Darma, however, they will start to learn spells and techniques appropriate to their new job: Warriors will start to learn weapon techniques, Priests learn healing spells, etc. Any character can learn any job, but not every character will be equally effective in the same profession. There's nothing stopping you from making Maribel a Warrior, but her low strength and lack of powerful equipment available to her will make her less effective. Similarly, you could make Gabo a Priest, but since he has low MP he won't be able to use the spells he learns as often. EFFECTS OF JOBS ON STATS: ------------------------- What job you are in influences what your current stats are. Become a Thief, and your Speed will shoot up. Become a Magic User, and your Strength will go down. However, all these changes are temporary. Your stats when in a job are actually "modified" off the stats of your base, "jobless" character. Therefore, it's largely irrelevant in terms of leveling what job you are in. The stats you gain when you level or use a stat-raising item are added to your "base" statistics, then modified to affect your job. If you gain 5 levels as a Warrior, then change to become a Dancer, you would have no less Strength as a Dancer than if you had spent the last 5 levels as a Bard. JOB ADVANCEMENT: ---------------- Advancement in a job is independant of any character levels. Each job has 8 levels, and every time you raise a job level, you will gain a new rank, and usually a new spell or technique. In order to raise a job level, you need to fight a predetermined number of battles. The number of battles you need to fight depends on your job. For example, it takes many more battles to raise job levels as a Sage than it does as a Thief. There is an old woman on the ground floor of Darma who can tell you how many fights each person in your party needs before they can advance to their next joblevel. In order for a battle to "count" towards a new job level, the monsters you are facing must be reasonably close to you in terms of strength and Experience level. At level 20, you can clomp Slimes all day and go nowhere in terms of job advancement. For this reason, it is generally a very Bad Idea to sit around and bash monsters for the purpose of gaining experience and gold--you might find yourself in a situation where your levels are so high that none of the monsters available to you will be considered worthy enough to advance your job levels. JOB MASTERY AND JOB CHANGING: ------------------------------ When you reach level 8 of a job, you are considered a Master of that job. At that point, you will have learned all the techniques and spells available to that profession, and can move on to a new class. Mastery is not only important in that it allows you to use all of a profession's techniques, but it also is a prerequisite for learning the more powerful Jobs in the game. If you change your profession, you will still be able to use any abilities or spells that you had previously learned in your new class. So, if you were a Magic User and then changed classes to become a Warrior, you would still be able to cast all the spells you learned as a Magic User. In addition, providing that you reached Level 5 or higher, you will remember the "basics" of your previous job after switching. The "basics" have no impact whatsoever on your character's general performance, but are important in learning hybrid techniques, discussed a little bit later. ADVANCED JOBS: -------------- Advanced jobs are more powerful jobs that are not immediately available to characters changing jobs for the first time. In order to have advanced jobs made available to them, characters must first achieve Mastery in several prerequisite jobs first. For example, the Paladin class is only available to characters who have achieved Mastery in both the Martial Artist and Priest professions. There are different prerequisites for each Advanced job. In general, it is a good idea to think ahead in terms of what jobs you would like to pursue to make the Advanced jobs available to you as soon as possible. THIRD-TIER JOBS: ---------------- Third-tier jobs are the most difficult and time-consuming to achieve, but are more powerful than any other. These jobs require mastery of multiple Advanced jobs to achieve. In Dragon Quest VI, only the Hero was a third-tier Job, but in Dragon Quest VII, in addition to the Hero, there are two additional third-tier Jobs, the God Hand and the Tenchi-raimei-shi. They take a very long time to build up to and master, but have some of the most powerful techniques and spells in the game. MONSTER JOBS: ------------- Unlike earlier installments of Dragon Quest, in Dragon Quest VII you cannot get monsters to join your party. Instead, they have replaced monster party members with monster jobs. Monster jobs are similar to regular jobs in that you advance in levels, gain ranks, spells and abilities in the same manner as "regular" jobs. The difference is that in order to enter a monster job, you will need the "spirit" of the monster you want to "become." You can find a few of these "spirits" throughout the game in treasure chests and the like, but the bulk of them you will get from monsters themselves. Sometimes after defeating monsters, you will find crystals with their "spirit" in them. (e.g. you can find Slime Spirits from defeating Slimes) Characters holding Monster spirits can change jobs and "become" that monster. When in a monster job, you will learn techniques associated with the monster you have "become." In addition, your base resistances will change to mimic those of your monster. When you reach Mastery of a Monster job, your character's graphic will change to that of his or her monster. That's not all though; once reaching Mastery in a monster job, a character's base resistances change again. In addition to the standard monster jobs with no prerequisites, There are Advanced, Third-Tier, Fourth-Tier, Fifth-Tier, and Sixth-Tier monster jobs. (The highest monster job, the Platinum King, requires mastery of a whopping 13 jobs to enter) Fortunately, if you can get a Monster Spirit of one of the Advanced or greater level jobs, you can use it to enter that job for free without getting the prerequisite jobs. HYBRID TECHNIQUES: ------------------ The standard method of learning a spell or ability is to enter the job associated with it and raise to the necessary Job Level to gain it. However, there exist quite a few spells and abilities that are independent of any single class. You can discover these special skills through gaining experience in the right combination of jobs; for this reason, I like to call them "Hybrid techniques." An example of a hybrid technique would be the spell "Skult," which raises your entire party's defense during battle. In order to learn Skult, you must know the "basics" in both the Shepherd and Priest classes. When you have the "basics" for both these jobs in your character's memory, you will gain the Skult spell. Since each character can only have two classes' "basics" in memory, this means you would have to go straight from being a Shepherd to a Priest, or vice-versa, to learn the technique. There is a workaround for this problem, however. It is possible to re-learn the "basics" from a job that you have forgotten. So, let's say that we are trying to teach Maribel Skult. First she was a Priest, but instead of becoming a Shepherd, she became a Magic User. If she became a Shepherd at this point, she would not learn Skult because the two jobs resident in her memory would be Magic User and Shepherd. However, if she returned to the Priest job (even after Mastering it) she could re-learn the Priest "basics," then become a Shepherd and learn the spell. Bottom line: If you want to re-learn the "basics" of a job you've forgotten, return to that job and fight until the game gives you a message that you have "gotten your sense back" in that job. (you'll get this message after roughly 30 fights) Then you can safely change classes to a profession that will teach you a Hybrid technique. -------- THE JOBS -------- BASIC JOBS ---------- Warrior (せんし/戦士) The Warrior is a master of all weapons, and as such, most of his techniques are involved with weapons usage.

No, really, you don't. Trust me. And I probably couldn't make an ASCII rendition of it even if I tried. ################################################################################ 5. SPELLS AND SKILLS ################################################################################ Due to the sheer number of jobs, and techniques learned by multiple jobs, I've decided to seperate the spells and Abilities section by type rather than by job. Since DQ7 seperates all Abilities and spells into attack/healing/other, I figure I'll do the same. KEY: MP: MP it takes to cast spell or use skill: "A" means the spell takes all your remaining MP. TAR: Type of Target. S=Self 1=one target, G=group, A=All DAM: Amount of damage (roughly) spell does to or heals target (with no resistance if an attack) "V" indicates the damage varies (usually dependant on the strength of the user) Note: these are rough guesses. I'm haven't done enough trials with some of these spells. DTYP: Type of Damage. M=Mera, G=Gira, H=Hyado, I=Io, B=Bagi, D=Dein, F=Fire, C=Cold, O=Other, NA=Not Applicable DAMAGE SPELLS Name Japanese MP TAR DAM DTYP EFFECT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mera メラ 2 1 ~15 M Small Ball of Fire Merami メラミ 4 1 ~80 M Medium Fireball Merazoma メラゾーマ 10 1 ~190 M Large Fireball Gira ギラ 4 G ~20 G Small blast of fire Begirama ベギラマ 6 G ~40 G Medium fire blast Begiragon ベギラゴン 10 G ~100 G Large Fire Blast Hyado ヒャド 3 1 ~30 H Small Ice projectile Hyadalko ヒャダルコ 5 G ~50 H Medium Ice Crystal explosion Mahyado マヒャド 12 A ~100 H Large Ice Crsytal blast Io イオ 5 A ~20 I Small Explosion Attack Iora イオラ 8 A ~60 I Medium Explosion Attack Ionazun イオナズン 15 A ~140 I Large Explosion Attack Bagi バギ 2 G ~15 B Small Tornado attack Bagima バギマ 4 G ~30 B Medium Tornado Attack Bagicross バギクロス 8 G ~150 B Large Tornado Attack Raidein ライデイン 6 A ~80 D Weak Lightning Attack Gigadein ギガデイン 15 G ~200 D Strong Lightning Attack Minadein ミナデイン 10* 1 ~600 D Entire party joins together to fire a powerful lightning blast Coral Rain コーラルレイン 8 A ~90 B Water attack to all enemies Maelstrom メイルストロム 12 G ~140 B Water attack to a group Zaki ザキ 4 1 Death NA Kills one enemy Zaraki ザラキ 7 G Death NA Kills a group of enemies Zarakima ザラキーマ 15 A Death NA Kills all enemies Megante メガンテ 1 A Death NA Sacrifice self to kill all enemies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Casting Minadein takes 10MP from each character in the party.

ITEM LIST ################################################################################ I've basically divided this section into several categories, one for each type of item: Weapons, Armor, Shields, Helmets, Accessories, Items, and Key Items. Items are anything that isn't equipment or a Key item. Note that some pieces of equipment also serve as Key Items. (like the Mermaid Moon) Key: ATT=Attack Power item grants DEF=Defense Power item grants STY=Style Points item grants 1=Denotes whether something is a one-time-use item; that is, whether or not the item can be "used up." Either "Y" for "Yes," "N" for "No," or "NA" for an item that can't be used. Notes: Any special properties said item has. Effects: What the accessory in question "does." I've left out the uses for the Key Items so as not to include any spoilers.
