The '''Sunderbolt Blade''' is a recurring sword in the {{DQSeries}}. When used as a tool in battle, it casts [[Zap]] on a group of enemies. In many games, it has become strongly associated with [[Terry]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ6}}===
The Sunderbolt blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +95 and a {{Style}} bonus of +45. It is equipped by [[Terry]] when he joins the party and it can also be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)|Hero]], [[Milly]], [[Nevan]], [[Amos]], and [[Goowain]]. It cannot be purchased or sold anywhere.

It can be reworked at the [[Fashion Forge]] for 12,000 gold, boosting its Style bonus to +65. If it is equipped with a [[Tempest shield]] when being ranked for the Best Dressed Contest, the wearer will receive an extra +35 Style bonus.

==={{DQ7}}===
The Sunderbolt blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +95, a {{Style}} bonus of +45 and can be equipped by the {{Hero 7}}, [[Sir Mervyn]], and [[Aishe]].

{{Descriptions
|DQH2=A regal, resplendent weapon imbued with arcing energy.<ref>Sony PlayStation 4 and Steam versions.</ref>
}}

==={{DQTact}}===
The Sunderbolt Blade appears as both a sword that can be equipped by any unit and an ability that can be learned by [[Terry]] through [[Talent Blossoming]]. The sword is an A-rank weapon that can be received as a reward for completing the Zap-type Equipment: Ultra stage of Elemental Equipment. It has an ATK bonus of +11, a max HP bonus of +36, and increases the wielder's Zap-type potency by 2%. It has three slots for Alchemy Effects. Some of the potential effects include increasing the wielder's Zap-type physical or breath potency further.

The ability costs 100 MP to cast and inflicts major [[Bounce|unreflectable]] [[Zap]]-type spell damage proportional to his ATK to all enemies in a T-shaped area of effect in front of him. Upgrading the skill increases its damage and reduces the amount of MP it costs to use.
