The Seasaur is an intermediate monster vocation in the game Dragon Quest VII.

Description

The Seasaur is a massive Elasmosaurus-like sea monster that feeds on sailors. This monster vocation offers a moderate increase to strength and Max HP and moderate to severe drops to all other categories. It has the ability to learn several powerful breath attacks.

Upon mastering the vocation, characters will receive a weak resistance to fire breath, ice breath, and sap, as well as a strong resistance to woosh and all other status ailments aside from poison, which they become immune to. Mastering the vocation is required to become a Galumph.

Requirements

To become a Seasaur, the character needs to master the Nostso Macho, Lips, and Jawtoise vocations. A Seasaur heart can also be obtained in battle by fighting the species in the Ocean near Alltrades Abbey after the Demon King's resurrection, the Whitewater Cave area of the Cathedral of Blight accessible with the Water Amulet, or the water area of Cave to Yet Another World.

  • In the Nintendo 3DS version, it is also possible to acquire a Seasaur heart by creating a custom Traveller's Tablet with a Seasaur as the boss.
