Seeds of skill are edibles that that increases the skill point total of whoever eats them. They only appears in later Dragon Quest installments that use a point-allocation skill system.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King[edit | edit source]

The seeds give a character 5 skill points, and can be found in an overworld chest near Pickham, in pots/cabinets in Neos and Empycchu, and may be purchased once from a midnight shop in Arcadia.

  • The nocturnal merchant sell six seeds in the 3DS version

A small selection of normal monsters drop them as rare items; Solaris, Great trolls, and Crocodogs specifically, with a 1/64 chance for each. Furthermore, all forms of the Lord of Dragovians have a 1/8 chance (a guaranteed chance in the 3DS version) to drop the seed.

  • The Lord of Dragovians' various forms will always drop a seed of skill when first defeated in the 3DS version

Regardless of which monster the player goes after, it is strongly recommended to make use of Yangus' Stainless Steal Sickle; the acquisition chance will be cut in half, but being able to attempt stealing multiple times in one battle is well worth the trade-off.
