Secret Wind Sickles

From Dragon Quest Wiki

Secret Wind Sickles is a recurring skill in the Dragon Quest series. It is one of Hussar's signature abilities, ripping apart his enemies with razor-sharp blades of wind from his sword.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest X[edit]

Secret Wind Sickles is a skill used by a possessed Hussar when he is faced as a boss. After charging for a short time, he unleashes a forward slash that deals 70% damage twice to any characters struck by it and has a high chance to stun them. Despite the skill's name, it deals non-elemental damage rather than wind damage.

Dragon Quest Tact[edit]

Secret Wind Sickles can be learned by Hussar at level 44 and costs 58 MP to use. It has a range of two squares in front of him and inflicts 250% potency Woosh-type physical damage to all enemies in a range of three squares horizontally. Upgrading the skill increases its damage and reduces the amount of MP it costs to use.

Etymology[edit]

Much like Wind Sickles, Secret Wind Sickles is also named after the Japanese yōkai kamaitachi, a mythical creature that takes the form of a weasel with sharp claws that is said to ride on dust devils.
