'''Blessed Breath''' is a light-based [[Breath attack|breath attack]] that emits a burst of shining light at enemies. Previously, it lacked a proper skill name akin to [[Scorch]], [[Freezing Blizzard]], etc, and was referred to by its text description when used by enemies. Depending on the game, it inflicts either Electric or Light-elemental damage.

==={{DQ9}}===
Blessed Breath is an enemy-only skill that inflicts light-elemental damage to the entire party. When used, the in-game text states that the user "exhales a cloud of blinding light". The amount of damage inflicted is dependent on the monster using it:

==={{DQ10}}===
Blessed Breath inflicts Light-based breath damage in a fan-shaped area in front of the user, the damage being dependent on the user's level. It can be used by [[hybird]]s, Polka dot dragons, [[moai minstrel]]s, [[frou-frou]]s when they are enraged, [[Nemean]], and Archimaera.

==={{DQ11}}===
Blinding flames are used by the [[noble dragon]]s, [[labradrake]]s, and [[mechan-o'-wyrm]]s, dealing over 100 damage if unprotected. Light-based attacks share the same element as the [[Bang]] line of spells, so anything that reduces damage from those spells will dim the flames.

==={{DQM3}}===
