===[[Dragon Quest VI]]===
==={{DQ3}}===
Forbearance is learned by [[Carver]] at level 18. Other characters can learn it by advancing to rank 6 of the [[Paladin]] vocation.
Forbearance was retroactively added to the 2024 remake, where it can learned by a [[Warrior]] upon reaching level 25. It costs 4 {{MP}}.
==={{DQ6}}===
Forbearance is learned by [[Carver]] at level 18. Other characters can learn it by advancing to rank 6 of the [[Paladin]] vocation. In the [[SFC]] version it was possible to protect the entire {{Party 6}} from magical damage if the user of Forbearance had [[Bounce]] cast upon them, but this is no longer possible in the {{DS}} and smart phone versions.
The boss [[Belleau]] also uses it to protect [[Cabot]]
 
==={{DQ7}}===
Forbearance is learned via the [[Paladin]] vocation as before.
*In the {{3DS}} remake [[Paladin]]s will learn Forbearance at rank 5 instead of 6. The [[Champion]] vocation will learn it at rank 1, and the [[Golem (vocation)|Golem]] vocation at rank 3. This remake prevents the [[Bounce]] trick from being applied just like in {{VI}}s remake.
 
It is used by the enemies [[Armoured wartoise]], [[Ironclad wartoise]], and [[Escudogre]].


===[[Dragon Quest VII]]===
==={{DQ9}}===
This ability is learned with 82 skill points allocated into [[List of virtue skills in Dragon Quest IX|Virtue skill]]. One infamous exploit is to cast [[Bounce]] on the user, which will reflect group attacks such as [[Kacrackle]] and [[Kaboom]] back to the source four times. This is especially useful for whittling down legacy bosses.

[[Hendrik]] also uses this ability when he is a non-playable ally during the battle against [[Mordegon]] in [[Heliodor Castle]], taking lots of pressure off the official {{Party 11}} members and making the fight much easier. Interestingly enough, it is impossible for [[Hendrik]] to know Forbearance when he rejoins the {{Party 11}}  soon afterward, as the ''Fraternity'' skill path cannot be unlocked until later on.
 
==={{DQTreasures}}===
Forebearance draws in the attention of all enemies in battle for a limited time and costs 3 {{MP}} to use. it is learned by [[Glacial golem]]s, [[Glyphic golem]]s, [[Gold golem (Recurring)|Gold golem]]s, [[Golem]]s, and [[Ruby golem]]s.
