Grim Breath is a powerful Dark-element breath attack that shrouds foes in the bleakest abyss.

Localization history[edit]

Grim Breath was previously localized as Dire Pyre, with both being called 黒くかがやく炎 in the Japanese script.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince[edit]

Grim Breath costs 80 MP and deals 220~320 damage to all enemies, but has lost the Fizzle-like effect that the weaker Black Breath possessed. It is learned via the Bad Breather, Barbarus, Blighter, Fallen Angel Corvus, Jasper Unbound, and Wyrmhole Dragon talents.

Dragon Quest Tact[edit]

Grim Breath can be learned by Randolfo the Tyrant at level 33 and costs 136 MP to use. It inflicts major Frizz-type breath damage that often locks one's physical and spell attacks and then major Zam-type breath damage to all enemies in a large fan-shape in front of him that also often locks their physical and spell attacks. Upgrading the skill increases its damage and reduces the amount of MP it costs to use.
