Focus Pocus

Focus Pocus is an ability in the Dragon Quest series.

This should not be confused with Focus or Hocus Pocus.

It first appeared in the Dragon Quest Monsters series of games as an ability that would let the user take two actions their next turn. In the main games, Focus Pocus replenishes the user's MP after each turn.

AppearancesEdit

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten PastEdit

Appearing exclusively in the 3DS version, Focus Pocus can be learned by Luminaries at rank 4 and Druids at rank 1. MP restored is ((Level / 10) -1), meaning the range is 3~8 at level 99. The restoration lasts for 6~9 turns.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry SkiesEdit

The ability is learned with 46 skill points allocated into Spellcraft skill. It costs 3 MP to use, lasts 4~6 turns, and the amount of MP restored per turn is Level / 10 with 3 MP being the minimum restored.

Dragon Quest MonstersEdit

When used, Focus allows the monster to perform the same skill or spell their next turn twice in a row. Although it has no MP cost, it uses MP for both moves performed, meaning that it has no effect on skills such as MegaMagic that completely drain the user's MP. It can be learned naturally by Akubar, DeathMore3, HerbMan, and Servant as long as they are level 18 with 126 max HP, 108 Defence, 108 Agility, and 108 Intelligence.

Dragon Quest Monsters 2Edit

Focus now requires 195 Intelligence to learn and can be learned by AsuraZoma, GranSlime, LordDraco, Orgodemir, and Poseidon.
