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. | |||
==Appearances== | |||
===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''=== | |||
B.U.P. in the 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. | |||
In the 3DS and subsequent 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'''. | |||
Further more, 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]], she can deal up to '''900''' damage. | |||
===''[[Dragon Quest Heroes II]]''=== | |||
B.U.P. returns after a long absence as [[Cesar]]'s [[Coup-de-Grace]] ability. | |||
==Etymology== | |||
Ultima is derived from the Ultima series of computer RPGs, of which [[Yuji Horii]] is a fan of and took inspiration from when developing the original Dragon Quest. | |||
