Sap

Sap is a recurring spell in the Dragon Quest Series. Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it lowers the defenses of enemies when used.

There are two Sap-type spells in the Dragon Quest Series.

• Sap: Lowers the defense of one enemy by half
• Kasap, originally known as Defense: Lowers the defense of a group of enemies by half

Early on, this spell is useful on hard enemies, including bosses. However, as the game progresses, monsters have some resistance to this spell and some have complete immunity to it.
