When used as an item in battle, it prevents the enemy party from using magic, presumably by restricting their ability to speak and thus voice the correct incantations for spells; however, it does not work on most bosses.

*If {{Meena}} and {{Maya}} do not obtain the Sphere of Silence in {{DQ4 Chapter 4}}, it will still be in [[Gupta Gupha]] in {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}. Thus, it is possible to have two Spheres of Silence at once.

*A common theory is that {{Meena}} and {{Maya}} lost the Sphere of Silence after their defeat by [[Marquis de Léon]] and that the Sphere was later given to Sir [[Roseguardin]]. Neither of these are true. The duo will still have the Sphere of Silence after their defeat, up until they reach [[Endor]] at the end of {{DQ4 Chapter 4}}. Sir Roseguardin having the Sphere of Silence even if the duo did not obtain the item in {{DQ4 Chapter 4}} shows that he has a duplicate copy, rather than having stolen the original.

*Torneko can actually end up stealing multiple copies of the Sphere of Silence when fighting against Sir Roseguardin, thus enabling you to have a collection of them if you so wish.
