Puff! is learned by Mages and Sages at level 37 if their wisdom exceeds 182 points. It costs 24 MP and deals 170~180 Fire damage to all enemies for 3~4 turns. Puff! gives the caster a strong resistance to Fire and Explosions and a weak resistance to Ice, [[Whack]], [[Blasto]], [[Deceleratle]], and being stunned. The stats are changed to 292 Attack, 358 Defence, and 167 agility; as before the attack stat is meaningless.

In addition, it only lasts for a few turns, similar to its appearance in ''Dragon Quest X''.


The flames spewed by Puff! work on the [[metal slime family]] despite their immunity to all other forms of Fire damage as a homage to the tried and true method of level grinding from 1988.

Puff! returns to the mainline series after a twenty-four year absence, being added to ''X'' with the version 7.0 update on March 21st, 2024. Instead of a spell that can be cast at any time, it is now the exclusive [[Pep|pep power]] of the [[Dragomancer]] vocation. Players who use Puff! are transformed into an immensely powerful [[great dragon]] for 60 seconds, with their stats going up by HP +650, MP +150, attack +810, defence +730, agility +510, deftness + 330, magical might +650, charm +100, and weight +650. In addition, the act of transforming removes all status ailments, increases the player's attack by 50% temporarily on top of the raw attack boost, and restores the player's HP & MP by 50% of the new maximum. The Dragomancer's regular attack option also becomes a twin strike like the [[falcon sword]], with the follow up blow dealing 70% of the damage of the initial strike.

Using Puff! removes the player's access to his or her abilities, replacing them with a new list for the duration of the transformation on top of including passive traits that are always in effect. Note that many of these abilities and traits remain untranslated:

Knowledge of the legendary fire dragon transformation spell Doragiramu, along with the partial transformation spells [[Dora]] and [[Dogaramu]], is contained in a grimoire taken by [[Galgadia]] from the magic library of Yomicain. He uses them in Chapter 31 as a counter to [[Matoriv]]'s newly-developed [[Medoroa]] - his dragon form's speed and power allowing him to interrupt the fire/ice spell's lengthy casting time, and its nonmagical fire breath acting as a [[Frizz]] substitute which Matoriv cannot hijack as a Medoroa component.
