Appearances

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince

Monsters with the Tactical Genius trait sometimes perform 2 or even 3 actions in a row. The number of actions is not affected if the player does not issue specific orders.

Having this trait will lower the monster's maximum stats by 20%, save for HP and MP. The exception to this rule are the members of the metal slime family, whose HP, MP, attack, and wisdom are cut by 30% while their defence and agility are increased by 10%, ignoring the usual reduction affecting other monsters.

It is learned by the following large-sized monsters at the indicated level, which account for almost two thirds of the whole roster:
