Warriors specialize in armed combat in battle, being capable of wielding the strongest weapons and wearing the heaviest armor, shields, and helmets available. They boast incredible growths in Strength, Resilience, and maximum HP, but are often the slowest party member in the group: it would be a wise idea to have them equip Agility-boosting accessories whenever available to keep them on par with other party members. Warriors typically share most of their equipment choices with the [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]], as well as having access to some weapons that are unique to them such as heavy axes and hammers. They will sometimes forgo weapon accuracy in favor of wielding weapons that have a higher chance of inflicting [[Critical Hit|critical hit]]s, such as [[Hela's hammer]] and the [[Headsman's axe]]. Warriors are sometimes troublesome to the party's finances, as it can quickly become expensive to keep them equipped with the newest and best equipment in each town. | Warriors specialize in armed combat in battle, being capable of wielding the strongest weapons and wearing the heaviest armor, shields, and helmets available.

=={{DQ3}}== | The female Warrior has been the victim of censorship in the 21st century due to the increasingly strict regulations of the [https://www.cero.gr.jp/en/ Japanese CERO ratings board]. This practice began in 2012 with the release of {{DQM3D}} where she wore a black top and matching spats under her armour, with black chosen in an attempt to match her male counterpart, and this design was carried forward into 2015 with {{DQStars}} and into 2022 with the statue depicting her in {{DQTreasures}}. Her design was altered again in 2024 with the HD-2D release of ''III'', where the black cloth was switched with a light beige to render the changes all but invisible on her sprite. Similar censorship was applied to the summon spirit [[Kamashki]] in {{DQ10}} and to [[Maya Mahabala]] in the 2023 release of {{DQM3}}. | ||

Regarding evolution, the Warrior can combine the mastered [[Mage]] class and become an [[Armamentalist]]. The 'mentalist has access to some elemental slashes and the extremely powerful spell [[Kafrizzle]]. The Warrior can also combine the mastered [[Martial Artist]] class and become a [[Gladiator]]. The Gladiator has stronger attacks including [[Multifists]]. After the Gladiator class is mastered, the Gladiator can then become a [[Champion]] as long as the [[Paladin]] class is also mastered. The Champion has several powerful attacks culminating with [[Blade of Ultimate Power]], a must for beating the final bosses in the game. | Regarding evolution, the Warrior can combine the mastered [[Mage]] class and become an [[Armamentalist]].
