The DLC Tablets are items present in the Nintendo 3DS Version of Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past.
Details[edit]
Like the traveller's tablets, the DLC tablets contain particular monsters, bosses, as well as items such as gold coins (ranging from 1 to 500), antidotal herb, bunny tails, magic water bottles, medicinal herbs, Pilchard pie, single phials, shellmets, or strong medicine.
Each tablet, upon being downloaded, includes an additional town resident who, unlike the main story NPCs, can be removed. Additionally, some of the tablets include monsters and reward items from other games in the Dragon Quest franchise which weren't originally present in Dragon Quest VII.
As with custom made tablets, the ones available through Download are without a Level Cap, making some potentially useful for vocation grinding.
Discontinuation of 3DS online services[edit]
Nintendo discontinued the online service for its 3DS and Wii U hardware on April 8th, 2024. This would have meant that the DLC tablets would be lost to the digital aether, but a fan going by the name of Gronya was determined to prevent this from happening. Thanks to her exemplary dedication and more than 300 hours of effort, the DLC tablets are now preserved on archive.org for posterity and are freely accessible to anyone.
Available tablets[edit]
Standard tablets[edit]
(The monsters in bold weren't in the original Sony PlayStation Version.)
The list of DLC tablets is arranged by official order.
For making it easy to be recognized, Japanese name of DLC tablets is added.
Story-focused tablets[edit]
On top of the combat-focused tablets, there are three more tablets that contain additional scenarios. These new scenes might contain spoilers for the rest of the game.
