Stomp, also known as Boulder Bash, is a recurring ability in the Dragon Quest series. It damages all enemies with a tremor, hitting for 50~65 Woosh-type damage for 0 MP. It has a 13rd chance to fail regardless of terrain, and will always fail at sea. In later games in the series, the skill began dealing earth-elemental damage instead.

Appearances

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

Stomp appears as an enemy-only skill used by the Drakulard in the bonus dungeon, the [ Fungeon.

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation

Stomp is learned by advancing to rank 4 of the Ranger vocation.

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past

As there is no Ranger vocation in VII, Stomp can only be learned by reaching rank 6 of the Golem vocation and rank 1 of the Paladin in the 3DS remake.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies

A handful of enemies will throw their weight around in IX, dealing anywhere from 15~19 damage to 90~108 damage. Naturally, the obese Drakulord hits heaviest with the skill. Stomp's element has switched from wind to earth as well. This marks the first time the skill has not dealt 50~65 damage.
