Kerplunk Dance is a recurring skill in the Dragon Quest series.
Description[]
A ritual dance that sacrifices the user to revive other party members. It costs no MP to perform and will restore everyone to 100% HP, making it more useful than Kerplunk itself.
Appearances[]
Dragon Quest VI[]
Making its debut, it is learned by advancing to rank 4 of the Luminary vocation. It costs 0 MP to use, and is also used by Dreadstaffs to revive their comrades, so priority for their defeats must be taken.
Dragon Quest VII[]
Kerplunk Dance is once again learned by advancing to rank 8 of the Luminary vocation and a Hybrid ability for the Sage. In the 3DS remake, it is learned by advancing to rank 7 of the former vocation.
