Gigagash, retaining its Japanese name of "Gigabreak" in most localisations, is one of Baran's strongest techniques. After using his Dragon Knight abilities to imbue his blade with the powers of both a [[Kazap]] (JP: ''Gigadein'') spell and his own Draconic Aura, he performs a two-handed downward slash with all of his strength. This technique can only be performed with a sword crafted from legendary materials such as [[orichalcum]], as its sheer power will cause lesser weapons to disintegrate. Both Baran and Dai have also performed a weaker version of this technique using a [[Zapple]] spell instead. | |||
After Dai gains the ability to cast [[Kazap]], he combines Gigabreak with his own sword technique [[Avan Strash]], creating the [[Giga Strash]] (which served as the model for [[Gigaslash]] in later games). | |||

Gigagash is the souped-up version of [[Gigaslash]], and deals 425~575 Lightning damage to all foes. In addition to the usual souped-up skill requirement of being at less than 50% health, Gigagash also necessitates that [[Princess Gwaelin]] buff the {{Hero 1}} with the power of her prayers. This can be done once the princess is empowered by [[Rubiss]] in the [[Shrine of Rain]] near the finale of the game, and the effect will randomly trigger in battle so long as she is present. | |||

[[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]] can learn Gigagash as a sword technique after fully investing 100 skill points into both the "Sword" and "Courage" skills, replacing [[Gigaslash]]. Despite the requirements, the skill can be used with any weapon equipped, and even bare-handed. Damage is calculated as ''level+222~282'', capping at level 47 for a maximum range of 271~331. | [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]] can learn Gigagash as a sword technique after fully investing 100 skill points into both the "Sword" and "Courage" skills, replacing [[Gigaslash]].
