Macho Picchu (formerly Nengal) is a boss encountered in Dragon Quest VII. It appears to be a mucho macho that has taken possession of the wind robe. It was locked in the Multipleximus Maximus by the descendants of the Cirrus.

Strategy

Macho Picchu possesses very high attack power and very high hit points. It can charge at the party and perform Sword Dance. If this is in combination with Oomph, this can be devastating. However, despite all of this, it can only attack once per turn.

Having a Luminary that knows Hustle Dance can go a long ways but beyond this, shouldn't pose a moderately leveled party too much trouble. Equipping a Miracle Sword on either the Hero or Aishe can reduce the need for healing.

Trivia

Macho Picchu’s original name, Nengal is probably related to the Babylonian deity, Nergal. Its modern name refers to the ancient ruins of Macchu Picchu, located in Peru.

Macho Picchu’s gender is never explicitly stated, Ruff bringing the matter to mind when spoken to after the fight. While Macho Picchu being a mucho macho in looks, appears male, it wore a robe meant to be put on a statue of a female spirit.
