In the remakes of ''IV'', the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|hero/heroine]] will learn the skill at level 50, dealing 250~300 zap type damage for 15 MP. | |||

B.U.P. in the PSX version can be learned by any character who reaches rank 8 of the [[Champion]]. It will deal 600~700 damage, minus the foe's defence value, for 20 MP. It bears no elemental attribute. | |||
In the 3DS and subsequent mobile device ports, B.U.P. takes on different properties; it now deals 500~600 damage that ignores defence, resistance, and any other damage reduction factors such as [[Immense Defence]]. '''This means the skill works on members of the metal slime family'''. | |||
Further more, the damage will increase by 50% if the practitioner is equipped with a weapon that's more effective against the target's monster family. For example, if [[Aishe]] is equipped with a [[Dragonsbane]], she can deal up to '''900''' damage. | |||

[[ | Ultima is derived from the Ultima series of computer RPGs, of which [[Yuji Horii]] is a fan of and took inspiration from when developing Dragon Quest. | ||
