While still occasionally mentioned as being monsters, rockbombs are treated as items throughout the game, often found sleeping on patches of dirt. Getting knocked into the air will angrily stir a rockbomb from its rest, and it will detonate the moment it hits the ground. They can be used as ammo in tank battles, but are mainly used to damage enemies and clear obstructions. | |||

*While often noted for their grins, they are never shown smiling in ''Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime'', bearing slight frowns while asleep and having angrily agape mouths while steaming from being woken up. | |||
