Tangleweb is a glob of gossamer webbing that attempts to hinder the movement of foes in battle, and is as also used as an alchemical ingredient.

In Japanese versions of the game, it's named after a spotted spider monster cut during development of Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line.[1]

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation[edit]

Tangleweb is an item to be used as a tool during battle and will mimic the Deceleratle spell by reducing all enemies' agility to zero, barring bosses and metal slimes. It can be purchased in several stores for 35 gold.

  • In the original NES version, tangleweb did not use Deceleratle's programming tag and would work 100% of the time on all non-boss monsters. This was changed in the SNES remake to use the spell's tag going forward to all subsequent versions and ports.

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past[edit]

Due to Deceleratle not being present, bundles of tangleweb now stun a single foe for one turn. Tangleweb is still a common item, and can be bought from several shops for 35 gold once again.
