Sphere of Silence
Japanese
Romaji {{{romaji}}}
Old Localisations Ball of Silence, Orb of Silence
Found in Dragon Quest IV
Effect Temporarily stops Balzack from using magic.

The Sphere of Silence is a key item in the Dragon Quest IV, wherein it was created by Mahabala through alchemy. When used as an item in battle, it prevents the enemy party from using magic, presumably by restricting their ability to speak and thus voice the correct incantations for spells; however, it does not work on most bosses.

Appearances

Dragon Quest IV

Maya and Meena Mahabala first discover it in Gupta Gupha during Chapter 4, where it proves necessary to defeat Balzack. However, they lose possession of it sometime between Chapters 4 and 5.

In Chapter 5, after confronting and defeating the green knight Sir Roseguardin, the party regains the Sphere of Silence.

Warning

There are several ways to miss getting the item in Chapter 5 completely:

  • Defeating Estark before encountering Sir Roseguardin will result in him not appearing in the Rosehill Tower where he would have been earlier.
  • During the battle, Sir Roseguardin will summon a Chillanodon. If he is defeated before Chillanodon, then The Hero will not obtain the Ball.

Dragon Quest VII

The Sphere of Silence is given as a reward for the completion of the DLC Tablet Palace of the Perished upon defeating Skeleton swordsman.

Trivia

  • If Meena and Maya do not obtain the Sphere of Silence in Chapter 4, it will still be in Gupta Gupha in Chapter 5. Thus, it is possible to have two Spheres of Silence at once.
  • A common theory is that Meena and Maya lost the Sphere of Silence after their defeat by Marquis de Leon and that the Sphere was later given to Sir Roseguardin. Neither of these are true. The duo will still have the Sphere of Silence after their defeat, up until they reach Endor at the end of Chapter 4. Sir Roseguardin having the Sphere of Silence even if the duo did not obtain the item in Chapter 4 shows that he has a duplicate copy, rather than having stolen the original.
