==Description==
The rockbomb is a monster made of living stone, which is part of the material family. It is a bluish, sometimes gray, boulder with a maniacal face on it, its teeth particularly gaped. Despite looking like plain boulders, rockbombs are actually immense geodes.

Rockbombs are not very aggressive. Most times, they smile strangely or watch their health, sometimes even entering battle asleep. However, rockbombs are not to be taken lightly as they are capable of exploding, usually in the form of the potentially devastating [[Kamikazee]] spell.
Rockbombs are not very aggressive. Most times, they smile strangely or otherwise waste their turn, sometimes even entering battle asleep. However, the boulders are not to be taken lightly as they are capable of self-destructing without any warning, usually in the form of the potentially devastating [[Kamikazee]] spell.


Strategy-wise, it is useful to remove the rockbombs first when encountering them in battle to prevent them from casting Kamikazee. This can prove more difficult in some titles over others, as some games give the bombs an ''enormous'' HP stat compared to other monsters in the area.

The rockbomb (then Bombcrag) can be found in the [[Excavated Cave]] in [[Deja]] and the [[Rexwood]] region in Disc 2. There is a rare chance that that, upon defeat, the rockbomb will drop a Bombcrag Heart which can be used to become a rockbomb in the [[Temple of Dharma]].
