Additionally, this family is referred to as the Beast family in Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart.

Effective weapons and skills

Dragons are vulnerable to the Dragonsbane, Dragon Slayer, Dragon claws and Dragonlord claws weapons, and as of the ninth game will take an additional 10% damage from any sword. The Dragon Slash skill will deal 50% more damage to dragons.
