+The '''Blade of Ultimate Power''' is recurring sword skill in the [[Dragon Quest (Series)|series]]. It is a single target slash charged with non-elemental energy that deals incredible damage for a high {{MP}} cost.
+The skill was exclusive to {{VII}} until reappearing in 2016 for the second entry in the ''Heroes'' spin off series, and has since been integrated into several titles.
 ==Appearances==
+==={{DQ2HD}}===
+Blade of Ultimate Power is the [[Souped-up skills|souped-up version]] of [[Metal Slash]]. It costs 45 MP and deals 510~630 Strike-element damage to one foe.
 ==={{DQ5}}===
-Though no party member can use the spell, remakes of the game have enemy [[Conkuistador]]'s occasionally attempting to cast it despite lacking the MP for it.
+The remakes of this installment has the [[Conclave]] faerie [[Conkuistador]] attempting to use this skill only to be fried (harmlessly) due to lacking the MP to use it.  [[List of recruitable monsters in Dragon Quest V|Recruited]] ones will lack the skill entirely though.
 ==={{DQ7}}===
-B.U.P. in the [[Sony PlayStation|PSX]] version can be learned by any character who reaches rank 8 of the [[Champion]]. It will deal 600~700 damage, minus the foe's defence value, for 20 MP.
+B.U.P. in the {{PSX}} version can be learned by any character who reaches rank 8 of the [[Champion]] vocation. It will deal 600~700 damage, minus the foe's {{Defence}} value, for 20 {{MP}}.
+In the {{3DS}} and subsequent [[Cell phone|mobile device]] ports, B.U.P. takes on different properties; it now deals 500~600 damage that ignores {{Defence}} and any other damage reduction factors such as [[Defending Champion]]. '''This means the skill works on members of the metal slime family'''.
+Furthermore, 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 [[Aishe]] is equipped with a [[Dragonsbane]] while using the skill on a [[drakulard]], she can deal up to '''900''' damage.
+[[The Mighty Pip]], [[Nun knight]]s, and [[Kernel colonel]]s also try using it in battle, but only the latter ever succeeds.

+Ultima Sword can be learned by [[Anlucia|Anlucia the Luminary]] at level 54 and costs 70 {{MP}} to use. It inflicts 380% potency surehit physical damage to a single enemy. Upgrading the ability increases its damage and reduces the amount of {{MP}} it costs to use.
