Dragon Quest VII Reimagined
Blunt is learned by reaching rank 5 of the Mage vocation. It costs 6 MP and reduces one monster's attack by one stage for 5~7 turns. The spell has a base accuracy of 75% and begins to increase once the caster's magical might reaches 200, achieving 100% accuracy (barring resistance) at 800 magical might. Blunt has a haywire rate that is half that of a normal critical hit.

Blunt is learned only by Mages at level 42 and reduces attack by 50% for 6~9 turns. It costs 8 MP to cast, and has a base accuracy of 75% if the caster's magical might is lower or equal to 50. Once the stat increases to 51, the spell will slowly rise in accuracy to a cap of 100% at 799 magical might.
