'''Gigasword''' is an infrequently occurring skill in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|DQ series]], debuting in ''VII''. Similar to [[Gigaslash]] and [[Gigagash]], it is an [[zap|electrically charged]] sword strike, though it targets only one foe instead of a group.

==Appearances== 

===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
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.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
In the remakes of ''V'', the [[Conkuistador]] enemy will attempt to slay a character with the skill, but it will always backfire.

===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
Gigasword can be learned by any character who reaches rank 8 of the [[Godhand]]. 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, Gigasword 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 [[Aira]] is equipped with a [[Dragonsbane]], she can deal up to '''900''' damage.

==Etymology==
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.
