The '''Zombiesbane''' is a powerful sword in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. True to name, it deals 50% more damage to creatures from the [[zombie family]] in most instances. In games that feature alchemy, it can often be upgraded into the more powerful [[Zombie slayer]].
 
==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
The zombiesbane has an attack bonus of +67. It can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]], [[Warrior]]s, [[Priest]]s, [[Merchant]]s, and [[Sage]]s. It can be bought in [[Manoza]] for 9,800 gold coins and sold for 7,350 gold coins.
 
Contrary to later appearances, the sword does ''not'' actually deal bonus damage to the undead; instead, the extra damage is based on the target's vulnerability to [[poof]]. When the decision to attack has been made and base damage has been calculated, the game will then check the foe's resistance to the spell and run a simulation without the player knowing. If the spell were to hit had it been cast by the player, the enemy would take 16~32 more damage.
 
==={{DQ5}}===
The Zombiesbane has an attack bonus of +80 and deals 50% more damage to rotting foes. It cannot be purchased until generation 3 though, at the new [[Whealbrook]] shop for 11,500 gold. V codified the bonus effect of the weapon, becoming standard until VIII.
 
==={{DQ6}}===
The zombiesbane increases attack by +80 and style by +5, with the fashion forge upgrading it to +62. [[Carver]], [[Amos]], [[Terry]], and [[Goowain]] can equip the sword and it can be purchased in [[Sorceria]], [[Felonia]], [[Turnscote]] the lower [[Weaver's Peak]], and [[Despairia]] for 18,000.
 
==={{DQ7}}===
The zombiesbane has an attack bonus of +75 and a style bonus of +5. It can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VII)|Hero]], [[Kiefer]], [[Sir Mervyn]], and [[Aishe]]. It can be purchased from the [[Divine Shrine]], [[Burnmont]] after the events at the [[Cathedral of Light]], and the [[Sea Dragon (sailing vessel)|Sea Dragon]] for 15,000 gold and can be sold for 7,500.
 
Zombiesbanes can also be won as prizes from the Lucky Panel at the [[Casino]] near [[Pilgrim's Rest]] in the present. It is the most powerful weapon the Hero can equip after the events at [[Alltrades Abbey (Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades Abbey]].
 
==={{DQ8}}===
