Characteristics

Once his shield is broken, Rhapthorne can be attacked in earnest. He has no resistance to elemental damage, a 25% resistance to sap, and immunity to all other debilitation. He'll put his girth to use when swiping with his arm, dealing 100~120 defense piercing damage, and can knock out a character after it connects. The ball on his scepter will deal 281 points of pierce damage to two random targets, and can confuse a character. Anger of the Gods will deal 84~96 points of bang damage to four random targets. Because his physical skills ignore defence, Kabuff is useless; cast Acceleratele to boost evasion and Insulatle to take the sting out of his breath attacks. Anger of the Gods can devastate the party if the player isn't careful while praying, so don't be afraid to take a turn to heal. Rhapthorne's random targeting can be tricky to counter, but as long as the party is above 50% health throughout the battle, victory is assured.
Other Appearances
Outside his main role in Dragon Quest VIII, Rhapthorne also makes appearances in these titles.
Dragon Quest IX
- "Evil incantations and Kafrizz form just part of this portly demon's plan to exterminate his enemies. Lick him with light. Some say his body is so big that is contains enough cursed power to contort the space-time continuum itself." - Dragon Quest IX bestiary
Rhapthorne also appears as a Legacy Boss in Dragon Quest IX, obtained after completing Quest #179 (or received at special events). He will become enraged once his health drops to orange range.
