Heal: Difference between revisions

'''Heal''' is a recurring spell in the {{DQSeries}}. As its name suggests, it functions to restore the [[Hit Points]] of the character it is used on. As the seminal spell of the franchise, Heal is almost always the first spell learned by the [[Hero|Hero/Heroine]] in their adventure. It is related to the more powerful spells [[Midheal]], [[Moreheal]], [[Multiheal]], [[Fullheal]], and [[Omniheal]].

Certain monsters (e.g. a [[Healslime]]) can also know this spell, with more powerful palette swaps knowing improved versions of the spell.

Heal is learned by {{Hero 1}} at Level 3. In the original version it will restore 10~17 {{HP}} for 4 {{MP}}, and 25~30 for 3 MP in the remakes.

The [[Prince of Cannock]] knows the spell upon being recruited. It restores 23~42 hit points in the original, and 25~30 in the remakes. Both versions cost 3 {{MP}}.

Heal is automatically learned by one who is a Priest from the beginning, but those who become a Priest or Sage in the {{Alltrades Abbey 3}} need to advance one level to learn it. In the mobile port, this is changed so that anyone who becomes a Priest or Sage automatically knows the spell at level 1.

The Hero can learn it much sooner for use in battle in the {{NES}} Version if a [[List of glitches in Dragon Quest III#Companion overload glitch|glitch]] is exploited in [[Patty's Party Planning Place]] where too many companions are registered, though it will prevent The Hero from being able to learn it for use on the world map.

The basic heal spell is known by [[Kiryl]] and {{Meena}} at level 1.  [[Healie]] and [[Laurel]] also know the spell. It costs 2 [[MP]] to cast and Heals 30~40 [[HP]] (unless it heals the target completely) to party members.

Heal is already known by several party members upon their joining the party or after leveling up. Everyone else can obtain it at the first rank of the [[Priest]] vocation.

In addition to the Hero and Maribel, any character that becomes a priest at {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} learns the spell at the first rank. It is also learned by [[Shepherd]]s at rank 3, the [[Kingfuschia (vocation)|Kingfushia]] monster vocation at rank 2, and the [[Healslime (vocation)|Healslime]] monster vocation at rank 2.

Heal initially restores the usual 30~40 hit points when used, but when the caster's magical mending surpasses 50 it will gradually improve in potency. Once the caster's mending has reached 999, the spell will restore 155~165 HP.

Heal is already known by Priests and Sages at level 1 and can be learned by Minstrels at level 2, Paladins at level 4, Luminaries at level 5, [[Ranger]]s at level 6, [[Thief|Thieves]] at level 8, and is known by [[Death Master]]s at level 50. It costs 2 MP to cast, has a base range of 25~31 HP restored and reaches to a maximum of 95~101 once the caster's Magical mending reaches 410. Heal can be learned by a Healslime or Slime knight monster companion for 3 skill points, as well.

The {{Hero 11}} learns Heal at level 5, and {{Serena 11}} will join the party having already mastered the spell. It costs 3 MP to cast, has a base range of 25~35, and a maximum range of 35~45.

Heal restores around 30~40 HP to a single ally for 3 MP. It can be learned naturally by many monsters, including [[Cross eye|BigEye]], [[Skeleton soldier|DeadNite]], [[Lunatick|Eyeder]], [[Gremlin]], [[Healslime|Healer]], [[King slime|KingSlime]], [[Mudslinger|Mudron]], [[Restless armour|RogueNite]], [[Slime knight|SlimeNite]], [[Tree feller|TreeBoy]], [[Ewwnicorn|Unicorn]] and [[Chimaera|Wyvern]] as long as they have 7 maximum {{MP}} and 6 INT. Heal will automatically upgrade to [[Midheal|HealMore]] and eventually [[HealAll]] as the monster levels up and their attributes increase.

Heal now requires 11 intelligence to learn. It is naturally learned by the [[Cauldrone|Octokid]], among others. It is naturally learned by the [[Conkuistador|FooHero]], [[High djinks|LampGenie]] and [[Deadly dodo|MadGoose]]. It is no longer naturally learned by the [[Cross eye|BigEye]], [[King slime|KingSlime]], [[Mudslinger|Mudron]] or [[Tree feller|TreeBoy]].

Heal restores around 30 HP to a single ally for 2 MP. It can be learned from various skill trees.

*[[Hawkhart (skill) | Hawkhart III]] (4 points)

*[[Healer (Skill) | Healer]] (4 points)

*[[Priest (skill) | Priest]] (5 points)

Heal cannot be learned by any of the playable characters, but [[Healix]] will occasionally cast Heal on a random party member if their HP is low. If a character is equipped with one of the [[Slime weapons]] and/or [[Slime earrings]], they have a higher chance of being healed randomly by Healix. As the story progresses, Healix is also able to cast stronger healing spells on his friends.

Heal is known naturally by [[Bushy baby]], [[Ewwnicorn]], [[Hades condor]], [[Healslime]], [[Hocus chimaera]], and [[Wimp]] at level 1 and costs 7 MP to cast. It has a range of 1-2 squares away from the caster, can be self-cast, and restores a small amount of HP to a single ally. It can also be taught to any unit by using an ability scroll.

The {{Hero Smash}} can cast Heal through his Command Selection ability. It costs 7 MP and will reduce his damage percentage by 11% when cast, but using it two times will prevent it from appearing in Command Selection again until the player is K.O.'d.
