Mastering the vocation is required in order to become a [[Barbatos (vocation)|Barbatos]] or a [[Prism peacock (vocation)|Prism peacock]].

==Requirements==

~~The~~ Dingbat ~~requires~~ a character to master the [[Jawtoise (Vocation)|Jawtoise]], [[Chimaera (Vocation)|Chimaera]], and [[Kingfuchsia (Vocation)|Kingfuchsia]] classes. A Dingbat Heart can also be won in the '''Lucky Panel''' game in [[The Haven]]'s casino. ~~Finally~~, it can be ~~obtained in battle by fighting~~ Dingbats in the [[Alltrades Abbey ~~(Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades]]~~ region after the events of the [[Cathedral of Blight]]

To become a Dingbat, a character needs to master the [[Jawtoise (Vocation)|Jawtoise]], [[Chimaera (Vocation)|Chimaera]], and [[Kingfuchsia (Vocation)|Kingfuchsia]] classes or have a monster heart in their inventory when going to {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} to change their vocation. A '''Dingbat Heart''' can also be won from the '''Lucky Panel''' game in [[The Haven]]'s casino. Additionally, it can be dropped from Dingbats in the [[Hidden Pyramid]] or the {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} region in the present after the events at the [[Cathedral of Blight|Cathedral of Light]]. However, dingbats only have a {{fraction|1|512}} chance of dropping their heart after battle.

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