Roundaclout

From Dragon Quest Wiki

Roundaclout is a recurring enemy-only skill in the Dragon Quest series. The monster spins themself rapidly, then strikes a group of enemies after building up momentum with its body or any weapons it is wielding.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest VIII[edit]

Roundaclout is used by Redtail hipsters, Swingin' hipsters, Riptides, and Claws. It deals non-elemental damage to the entire party that can only be reduced by defending. The damage is based on the user's level, with the hipsters using a weaker variation calculated as (Lv x 2 + 10) as the average value, and the claw-wielders having a stronger variation with a calculation of (Lv x x2 + 20).
