Ferocious Roar (Hellish Howl in FFBE, Tact, and The Dark Prince) is a recurring skill in the Dragon Quest series.
Appearances[]
Dragon Quest VI[]
Making its debut, Mortamor uses it in his final form as well as Nokturnus, hitting for 120-150 damage while potentially stunning enemies.
Dragon Quest VII[]
Acting the same as in VI, it is used by Orgodemir in his third form during the true final battle.
Dragon Quest VIII[]
Acting the same as in its last two appearances, it is only used by the Emerald dragon, though defending will not reduce damage.
Dragon Quest IX[]
Acting the same as in previous appearances once again, it is used by Mortamor once again, however the more he levels up, the more powerful the skill becomes, reaching 350 damage if the Archfiend is at Level 99. It is now hard to evade, requiring certain skills to survive it.

Acting the same as in previous appearances once again, it is used by Demon Zongaron, Gosnell, Zui Zaku, Gelzark, Galdodon, Demon Dragon Jaomanda, Runaway Kourin, Evil Ruberangis, Hexakong, the Dragonlord, and Mysterious Demon Wolf, as well as Nokturnus for the first time since his debut. However, it can also inflict status aliments like confusion and curse.
