Dragon Quest Tact

Flame Ball is known naturally by Damselfly at Level 1 and can be learned by Sham hatwitch at Level 16 and costs 9 MP to use. It has a range of up to three squares away from the user and inflicts minor Frizz-type breath damage to a single enemy. Firebird can also learn the perk Flame Ball Follow-Up through talent blossoming, which allows it to occasionally follow up with Flame Ball when any other ally attacks within a 1 to 3-space range.
