Tidal Wave is an ability in the Dragon Quest series. It sends a wave of water crashing down on the enemy to deal 30~40 woosh-type damage. It cannot be used in doors or underwater when used by party members, and has a 33% chance to fail upon use.
Appearances
Dragon Quest IV
Tsunami is an enemy only skill in the remakes of IV, being used by the Shelligator. Because the monster only appears in the fungeon, the skill's paltry damage range is hardly anything to worry about by that point in average playthroughs.
Dragon Quest VI
Tidal Wave is learned by Shelley at level 17. Other characters can obtain it by advancing to Rank 4 of the Sage vocation.
Dragon Quest VII
The Sailor can learn Tsunami at rank 8 in the PSX version.
- Tsunami has been removed from the game in the 3DS version due to the real-life tragedy of the 2011 Great Eastern Japan Earthquake. Instead, monsters use Hurricane for the same damage range.
Dragon Quest IX
Tsunami is used by the Lleviathan for a slightly weaker, non-elemental 30~37 damage.
Great Tidal Wave
Starting with IX, a higher level form of Tidal Wave was introduced as a monster-only skill. The Great Tidal Wave's damage depends on the monster causing it, with Lleviathan's hitting for 70~90, the boa bishop's 100~120, and the Seavern's for a massive 135~163.
