'''Pressure Pointer''' is an ability in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]] series. It may instantly kill an enemy, using the same resistance rates as [[whack]].

==Appearances==

==={{~~DQ3~~}}===

==={{DQ3HD}}===

Pressure Pointer was retroactively added to the 2024 remake, where it can learned by a Warrior upon reaching level 21. It costs 4 {{MP}}.

Pressure Pointer was retroactively added to the 2024 remake, where it can learned by [[Warrior]]s upon reaching level 21 if their wisdom exceeds 39 points. It costs 4 {{MP}} and has a 25% chance to instantly kill the target, dealing 50% damage if the trick fails. Incredibly the skill ignores the affects of [[Dazzle]] and [[Sandstorm]], as well as that of [[Oomph]], [[Muster Strength]], [[Egg On]], [[Attack Attacker]], [[Sap]], & [[Kasap]].

===~~''[[Dragon Quest VI]]''~~===

==={{DQ6}}===

Pressure Pointer tries to inflict a fatal strike; if it fails it deals 50% melee damage instead. It can be learned by advancing to rank 6 of the [[Martial Artist]] vocation.

===~~''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''~~===

==={{DQ7}}===

Learned in the same way as ''VI'' and functions identically.

===~~''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''~~===

==={{DQ9}}===

~~Pressure Pointer~~ is ~~used by~~ [[~~death scorpion~~]].

This ability is learned with 22 skill points invested into [[List of spear skills in Dragon Quest IX|Spear skill]]. Unlike before, the skill now has a fixed slay rate of 1/8th, meaning the skills can work just fine on metal slimes.

~~===''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''===~~

This ability is learned with 22 skill points invested into [[List of spear skills in Dragon Quest IX|Spear skill]]. Unlike before, the skill now has a fixed slay rate of 1/8th, meaning the skills can work just fine on metal slimes.
