A ''ship'' is a common mode of transportation in {{Main Series}} games. The concept of giving the Hero's party a ship first appeared in {{DQ2}} and has appeared in all the subsequent games in the main series.

==Usage==
==Usage==
Traveling in the ship is much like traveling on land. Typically, the ship travels at the same rate of speed as travel by land. The party also will continue to encounter monsters while on the ship, although they will be aquatic rather than land monsters. The ship also follows the Hero whenever the [[Zoom]] (or Return) spell or [[Chimeara wing]] is used. The ship relocates to the nearest body of water to the return point. This keeps the player from having to remember where the ship was last used (or worse, having it stranded on a remote island).

===Gaining Access===
===Gaining Access===
Access to a ship is typically the result of completing some sort of quest or objective. Normally, the point in the game when a ship is acquired is near the mid-point of the game, as having a ship allows access to areas already visited and new areas which are fundamental to the next portion of the game. In the case of both {{DQ2}} and {{DQ3}}, acquiring the ship is a segue to quests which requires the Hero to travel all over the world to retrieve specific items.

The {{Hero 8}} and his party discovers a landlocked ship in the desert south of [[Trodain]].

Ship - Deck.PNG|The Deck
The ship is called the Salty Stallion in this game, and belongs to the party member [[Sylvando]]. (It is never specifically acknowledged how he gained it.) The {{Hero 11}} and his {{Party 11}} gain the ship in [[Gondolia]] after completing a certain plot event there. The ship is also steered by someone called Dave, who must be spoken to in order to board the ship from land, though his plot role is very small.
Ship - Passenger Cabin.PNG|Passenger Cabin
 
Ship - Hold.PNG|The Hold
At first only the inland sea is accessible, but the {{Party 11}} gains access to the open seas after they open the sea gates leading to the Valor-Sauvage Channel--this is accomplished with the aid of Servantes in [[Puerto Valor]]. Soon after this, the party also obtains [[Lorelei's harp]] from the [[mermaid]] [[Michelle]], which allows them to access the underwater village of [[Nautica]], as well as to travel quickly between connected pillars of light on the seas.

{{spoiler|start}}
The {{Hero 11}} loses access to the ship at the beginning of Act 2 due to being separated from his companions. The Salty Stallion is accessible again once Sylvando and [[Rab]] have rejoined the party. The {{Hero 11}} regains Lorelei's harp after reuniting with [[Jade]], who somehow acquired it in between acts. Note that the ''effects'' of the harp are still not accessible until [[Alizarin]] has been defeated. The Valor-Sauvage Channel remains accessible during all of Act 2 and the sea gates do not need to be reopened.
 
Additionally, [[Erik]] will reappear as a stowaway on the Salty Stallion once the player has met all of the plot prerequisites for defeating Alizarin.
