Moonwort bulb

A moonwort bulb (previously known as a Full Moon Herb or MoonHerb) is a recurring item in the Dragon Quest series.

Appearances[]

Dragon Quest III[]

The Moonwort Bulb cures paralysis. It can be purchased from many shops for 30 gold coins each starting from Romaria and sold for 22 gold coins. Some bulbs can be found in Romaria, Norvik, and the Ghost Ship, as well as being dropped by Scornets, Dread admirals, and Man o' wars.

Dragon Quest IV[]

Moonwort bulbs can be purchased from many shops for 30 gold coins each starting from the Desert Bazaar and sold for 22 gold. The spell Tingle has been modified to affect all party members, diminishing the importance of the plant slightly. However, as only Meena Mahabala will learn the spell, most players keep a few in stock for when she is incapacitated or not in the party. Moonwort bulbs can be dropped by Paralyslicers, Humbabas, Hellspawns, Pit vipers, Man o' wars, and Mangler fishes.

Dragon Quest V[]

Moonwort bulbs can be purchased from item shops for 30 gold coins each in Coburg, Fortuna, Lodestar Harbour, Zoomingale, Mostroferrato, Stockenbarrel, and Helmunaptra and sold for 15 gold coins. The bulbs can also be dropped by Wormbats, Deadcurions, Bloodbonnets, and Man o' wars.

Dragon Quest VI[]
