::''--Description of the Warrior from'' {{Dragon Quest VII}} ''({{3DS}})''</center>

The {{translation|'''Warrior'''|戦士|Senshi|lit. Soldier}} is a ~~recurring character~~ vocation in the ~~{{DQSeries}} that was~~ introduced in {{~~DQ3~~}}. Warriors typically have high HP, Strength, and Resilience, but low Agility, and ~~also~~ possess no magical capability whatsoever.

The {{translation|'''Warrior'''|戦士|Senshi|lit. Soldier}} is a [[vocation]] in the series introduced in {{Dragon Quest III}}. Warriors typically have high HP, Strength, and Resilience, but low Agility, and typically possess no magical capability whatsoever.

==Characteristics==

Warriors ~~specialize~~ in armed combat in battle, being capable of wielding the strongest weapons and wearing the heaviest ~~armor~~, shields, and helmets available. They boast incredible growths in Strength, Resilience, and maximum HP, but are often the slowest party member in the group: it would be a wise idea to have them equip Agility-boosting accessories whenever available to keep them on par with other party members. Warriors typically share most of their equipment choices with the [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]], as well as having access to some weapons that are unique to them such as heavy axes and hammers. They will sometimes forgo weapon accuracy in favor of wielding weapons that have a higher chance of inflicting [[Critical Hit|critical hit]]s, such as [[Hela's hammer]] and the [[Headsman's axe]]. Warriors are sometimes troublesome to the party's finances, as it can quickly become expensive to keep them equipped with the newest and best equipment in each town.

Warriors are sometimes troublesome to the party's finances, as it can quickly become expensive to keep them equipped with the newest and best equipment in each town.

The female Warrior has been the victim of censorship in the 21st century due to the increasingly strict regulations of the [https://www.cero.gr.jp/en/ Japanese CERO ratings board]. This practice began in 2012 with the release of {{DQM3D}} where she wore a black top and matching spats under her armour, with black chosen in an attempt to match her male counterpart, and this design was carried forward into 2015 with {{DQStars}} and into 2022 with the statue depicting her in {{DQTreasures}}. Her design was altered again in 2024 with the HD-2D release of ''III'', where the black cloth was switched with a light beige to render the changes all but invisible on her sprite. Similar censorship was applied to the summon spirit [[Kamashki]] in {{DQ10}} and to [[Maya Mahabala]] in the 2023 release of {{DQM3}}.

Series creator [[Yuji Horii]] expressed his frustrations with the harsh restrictions of the CERO age ratings in a September 28, 2024 interview with video game news outlet Denfamico. Long-time series collaborator [[Kazuhiko Torishima]] was also present for the interview, who expressed his scorn for the forced compliance with overseas media regulations on top of CERO's influence. The interview is hosted on [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvdqTo3V6no Denfamico's youtube channel], being the first segment.

Warrior is once again one of the basic vocations available after the events at [[Alltrades Abbey (Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades Abbey]]. The vocation's repertoire of skills is less dangerous than before, eschewing some of the questionable techniques for those that deal heavy damage to certain types of monsters. Mastering it is a prerequisite to unlock both the Gladiator and Armamentalist vocations. In the 3DS version, the outfit for Warriors is very similar to those seen in ''IX''

The Warrior is a useful class to become because of the strength increase that it affords. Among the skills that the warrior learns, Hatchet Man is by far the most useful. Although it misses half the time, when it does connect it will always be a critical hit, making short work of [[Metal slime family|metal Slimes]]. The Dragon Slash is also good for [[dragon]] bosses that the player encounters.

|~~width="20%" valign~~="~~top~~" style="~~background~~:#~~4682B4~~"|~~'''Hybrid'''~~

|~~width="10%" valign="top" style="background~~:~~#4682B4"~~|~~'''Learns'''~~

For hybrid skills, the two most useful ones are Sword Dance, which requires both a mature warrior and a mature [[Dancer]], and Kelpto Clobber, which requires a mature warrior and a mature [[Thief]]. Sword Dance attacks four times with 0.75% power, making it useful for boss fights as it will hit for 300% more attack power than normal attacks. It is also the most cost effective skill in the game as it doesn't require any MP to use. Klepto Clobber is useful because it steals from enemies, making it a nice skill to have if the player is looking for a particular item. However, the chance of stealing is rather low.

|~~width="15%" valign="top" style="background~~:~~#4682B4"~~|~~'''Target'''~~

|~~width="50%" valign="top" style="background~~:~~#4682B4"~~|~~'''Info'''~~

Regarding career advancement, the Warrior can combine the mastered [[Mage]] class and become an [[Armamentalist]]. The 'mentalist has access to some elemental slashes and the extremely powerful spell [[Kafrizzle]]. The Warrior can also combine the mastered [[Martial Artist]] class and become a [[Gladiator]]. The Gladiator has stronger attacks including [[Multifists]]. After the Gladiator class is mastered, the Gladiator can then become a [[Champion]] as long as the [[Paladin]] class is also mastered. The Champion has several powerful attacks culminating with [[Blade of Ultimate Power]], a must for beating the final bosses in the game.

===[[Dragon Quest VII Reimagined]]===

Warrior returns as one of the basic vocations in the game as soon as they become available during the Alltrades Abbey arc. Much like in the classic versions, it boosts the HP and physical strength of the character using this vocation. Warriors learn a variety of physical skills, most of which focus on damaging a single enemy.

Matering it alongside [[Martial Artist]] allows party member to venture into the [[Gladiator]] vocation, while doing so alongside [[Mage]] lets them become [[Armamentalist]].

~~====Strategy====~~

The Warrior is a useful class to become because of the strength increase that it affords. Among the skills that the warrior learns, Hatchet Man is by far the most useful. Although it misses half the time, when it does connect it will always be a critical hit, making short work of [[Metal Slime|Metal Slimes]]. The Dragon Slash is also good for [[dragon]] bosses that the player encounters.

For hybrid skills, the two most useful ones are Sword Dance, which requires both a mature warrior and a mature [[Dancer]], and Kelpto Clobber, which requires a mature warrior and a mature [[Thief]]. Sword Dance attacks four times with 0.75% power, making it useful for boss fights as it will hit for 300% more attack power than normal attacks. It is also the most cost effective skill in the game as it doesn't require any MP to use. Klepto Clobber is useful because it steals from enemies, making it a nice skill to have if the player is looking for a particular item. However, the chance of stealing is rather low.

Regarding evolution, the Warrior can combine the mastered [[Mage]] class and become an [[Armamentalist]]. The 'mentalist has access to some elemental slashes and the extremely powerful spell [[Kafrizzle]]. The Warrior can also combine the mastered [[Martial Artist]] class and become a [[Gladiator]]. The Gladiator has stronger attacks including [[Multifists]]. After the Gladiator class is mastered, the Gladiator can then become a [[Champion]] as long as the [[Paladin]] class is also mastered. The Champion has several powerful attacks culminating with [[Blade of Ultimate Power]], a must for beating the final bosses in the game.

==={{DQ9}}===

The Warrior Class is available at the start of the game and has the unique skillset 'Courage'. Warriors can also use skill points to learn [[Sword]], [[Spear]], [[Knife]], and [[Shield]] skills. Their [[Coup-de-Grace]] is "[[Critical Claim]]" an attack that always lands a critical hit.

*The female Warrior's design has been altered in newer appearances due to the [https://www.cero.gr.jp/en/ Japanese CERO ratings board] in order to avoid increasing the age rating for certain games. In {{DQM3D}}, she is seen wearing a black top and shorts under her armour. This design also appears in {{DQStars}} and {{DQTreasures}}. The design was altered again with the HD-2D release of ''III'', where the black cloth was switched with a light beige.

 ==Characteristics==
-Warriors specialize in armed combat in battle, being capable of wielding the strongest weapons and wearing the heaviest armor, shields, and helmets available. They boast incredible growths in Strength, Resilience, and maximum HP, but are often the slowest party member in the group: it would be a wise idea to have them equip Agility-boosting accessories whenever available to keep them on par with other party members. Warriors typically share most of their equipment choices with the [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]], as well as having access to some weapons that are unique to them such as heavy axes and hammers. They will sometimes forgo weapon accuracy in favor of wielding weapons that have a higher chance of inflicting [[Critical Hit|critical hit]]s, such as [[Hela's hammer]] and the [[Headsman's axe]]. Warriors are sometimes troublesome to the party's finances, as it can quickly become expensive to keep them equipped with the newest and best equipment in each town.

-The female Warrior has been the victim of censorship in the 21st century due to the increasingly strict regulations of the [https://www.cero.gr.jp/en/ Japanese CERO ratings board]. This practice began in 2012 with the release of {{DQM3D}} where she wore a black top and matching spats under her armour, with black chosen in an attempt to match her male counterpart, and this design was carried forward into 2015 with {{DQStars}} and into 2022 with the statue depicting her in {{DQTreasures}}. Her design was altered again in 2024 with the HD-2D release of ''III'', where the black cloth was switched with a light beige to render the changes all but invisible on her sprite. Similar censorship was applied to the summon spirit [[Kamashki]] in {{DQ10}} and to [[Maya Mahabala]] in the 2023 release of {{DQM3}}.
-Series creator [[Yuji Horii]] expressed his frustrations with the harsh restrictions of the CERO age ratings in a September 28, 2024 interview with video game news outlet Denfamico. Long-time series collaborator [[Kazuhiko Torishima]] was also present for the interview, who expressed his scorn for the forced compliance with overseas media regulations on top of CERO's influence. The interview is hosted on [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvdqTo3V6no Denfamico's youtube channel], being the first segment.

 Warrior is once again one of the basic vocations available after the events at [[Alltrades Abbey (Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades Abbey]]. The vocation's repertoire of skills is less dangerous than before, eschewing some of the questionable techniques for those that deal heavy damage to certain types of monsters. Mastering it is a prerequisite to unlock both the Gladiator and Armamentalist vocations. In the 3DS version, the outfit for Warriors is very similar to those seen in ''IX''

+The Warrior is a useful class to become because of the strength increase that it affords. Among the skills that the warrior learns, Hatchet Man is by far the most useful. Although it misses half the time, when it does connect it will always be a critical hit, making short work of [[Metal slime family|metal Slimes]].

+For hybrid skills, the two most useful ones are Sword Dance, which requires both a mature warrior and a mature [[Dancer]], and Kelpto Clobber, which requires a mature warrior and a mature [[Thief]]. Sword Dance attacks four times with 0.75% power, making it useful for boss fights as it will hit for 300% more attack power than normal attacks. It is also the most cost effective skill in the game as it doesn't require any MP to use. Klepto Clobber is useful because it steals from enemies, making it a nice skill to have if the player is looking for a particular item. However, the chance of stealing is rather low.

+Regarding career advancement, the Warrior can combine the mastered [[Mage]] class and become an [[Armamentalist]]. The 'mentalist has access to some elemental slashes and the extremely powerful spell [[Kafrizzle]]. The Warrior can also combine the mastered [[Martial Artist]] class and become a [[Gladiator]]. The Gladiator has stronger attacks including [[Multifists]]. After the Gladiator class is mastered, the Gladiator can then become a [[Champion]] as long as the [[Paladin]] class is also mastered. The Champion has several powerful attacks culminating with [[Blade of Ultimate Power]], a must for beating the final bosses in the game.

+Warrior returns as one of the basic vocations in the game as soon as they become available during the Alltrades Abbey arc. Much like in the classic versions, it boosts the HP and physical strength of the character using this vocation. Warriors learn a variety of physical skills, most of which focus on damaging a single enemy.
+Matering it alongside [[Martial Artist]] allows party member to venture into the [[Gladiator]] vocation, while doing so alongside [[Mage]] lets them become [[Armamentalist]].

In {{DQM3D}}, she is seen wearing a black top and shorts under her armour. This design also appears in {{DQStars}} and {{DQTreasures}}. The design was altered again with the HD-2D release of ''III'', where the black cloth was switched with a light beige.
