The '''poison needle''' is a recurring weapon in the {{DQSeries}}. It is a novelty weapon that has a chance to instantly kill an enemy in a single strike, but otherwise can only inflict one point of damage. Both of these attributes make the needle an invaluable weapon against [[Metal slime family|metal monsters]]. It's point resembles that of a [[hell hornet]]'s stinger, but this may be a coincidence. | |||
