The Seasaur is an intermediate monster vocation in Dragon Quest VII.

Description[edit | edit source]

The Seasaur is an aquatic monster that uses various breath attacks. This monster vocation offers a moderate increase to Strength and Max HP, with moderate to severe drops to all other attributes except Agility. Mastering the vocation is required in order to become a Galumph.

Resistances[edit | edit source]

From ranks 1 to 7, a character that has become a Seasaur has a high resistance to poison, dazzle, sleep, instant death, Fizzle, and Kamikazee, as well as a slight resistance to Woosh-type spells, fire and ice breath, paralysis, and being stunned. At rank 8, the character will become immune to poison and Kamikazee, gains a high resistance to Woosh-type spells and stun, and a slight resistance to Sap.[1]

  • In the Nintendo 3DS version, a character will become more susceptible to confusion, paralysis, and being stunned as a Seasaur. They also have a slight weakness to sleep, poison, Fizzle, Sap, and instant death. They have a slight resistance to Woosh-type spells, fire and ice breath, dazzle, and Kamikazee. At rank 8, they become immune to poison and Kamikazee, along with gaining a high resistance to Woosh-type spells.[2]

Requirements[edit | edit source]

To become a Seasaur, a character needs to master the Notso Macho, Lips, and Jawtoise vocations first or have a monster heart in their inventory when going to Alltrades Abbey to change their vocation. A Seasaur heart can be dropped by fighting Seasaurs in the Ocean near Alltrades Abbey after the Demon King's resurrection, the Whitewater Cave area of the Cathedral of Blight accessible with the Water Amulet, or the water area of Cave to Yet Another World. However, Seasaurs only have a 11024 chance of dropping their heart after battle.

  • In the Nintendo 3DS version, it is also possible to acquire a Seasaur heart by creating a custom Traveller's Tablet with a Seasaur as the boss.
