'''Harvest Moon''' is ~~a recurring~~ ability in the ~~franchise~~. ~~In Dragon Quest ''IV'' through ''VIII'' it slices~~ all enemies ~~with a spinning attack~~, ~~but beginning with ''IX''~~ it ~~has switched to dealing extra~~ damage to ~~members of the~~ [[~~Floating "family"~~]].

'''Harvest Moon''' is an ability in the series.

==Characteristics==

This ability is an acrobatic martial arts technique that deals damage to all enemies, decreasing if there are multiple enemies. In later games, it only targets a single enemy and deals greater damage to [[floating enemies]].

==Appearances==

==={{DQIIHD}}===

Harvest Moon costs 8 MP to use and damages all enemies. The damage is calculated as ''Normal attack damage x 3 ÷ (Number of enemies + 1)'', dealing strike-type damage and decreasing with the number of enemies in battle. It is learned naturally by the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]] at level 32 and by the [[Prince of Cannock]] by using the Harvest Moon Scroll, which is found in a treasure chest on 2F of the [[Tower of the Moon]].

* When the Princess of Moonbrooke's HP is below 50% or she is under the effects of [[Dodgy Dance]], the [[Souped-Up Skill]] [[Miracle Moon]] becomes available to use by holding down a button, depending on which version of the game is being played. The player must have the [[Soul Sigil]] in their possession to use it.

~~In the remakes,~~ Harvest Moon ~~is one~~ of the ~~special abilities that [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]] has already learned upon joining the party in Chapter 6. It costs~~ no MP ~~and the~~ damage ~~calculation~~ is ''3/(~~1 + number~~ of enemies)'', ~~meaning one~~ enemy ~~will take 150% damage, two enemies will receive normal damage, three get 75%~~, and ~~so on~~.

Harvest Moon appears in remake versions of the game, dealing damage to all enemies at no MP cost.

~~{{Stub}}~~

Harvest Moon is learned by investing 60 skill points into the Fisticuffs skill. It costs 2 MP to use and deals 30% more damage to a single enemy, inflicting an additional 20% damage to [[floating enemies]]. The animation for performing it is similar to a somersault kick in fighting games.

Harvest Moon is a normal attack that can be used by [[Angelo]] or by [[Lazarel]] and [[Teresa]] if they are equipped with a [[bow]]. The user quickly performs a series of acrobatic backflips that strikes enemies and sends them flying, as well as putting some distance between them. It can be performed twice in a row and can be used to fire off a flurry of arrows in a wide volley if the attack button is pressed at the end of the animation.
