Welcome to the Dragon Quest IV Walkthrough for the Nintendo DS with free live support and featuring a relatively spoiler free walkthrough that you can almost use without reading


DRAGON QUEST V PREVIEW

While the graphics in Dragon Quest V borrow heavily from Dragon Quest IV, the environments are more diverse and feature a little more animation

The casinos are more interesting and include slime races and "life size" board games (with battles and items to find)

The early weapons are generally more useful including boomerangs that deal out damage to all enemies

Monsters may offer to join your party and most will learn spells

Boss monsters no longer appear in the Big Book of Beasts

A Whac-A-Slime mini-game uses the touch screen

King Minikin's rewards are now more like a shop where you can use the mini medals to get what you want

Specialty items can be traded with other players

Characters can equip multiple accessories

A world map has been made

A giant version of the board game (spanning multiple floors) becomes available at the end of the game

All monsters have been found (29 monsters recruited) and their locations have been recorded (including at which floors they appear in towers and dungeons)


GAME NOTES

Sir Roseguardin (found inside Rosehill) does not appear in Chapter Six, so make sure you get him added into the Big Book of Beasts before then

Additionally, Sir Roseguardin will only drop the Sphere of Silence if he's the last monster to fall in the battle
