Characteristics edit

Mega moais are giant moai heads made from red volcanic rock. They attack by hurling huge boulders and can emit a terrifying eerie light from their piercing blue eyes. They are said to have been carved from volcanic rock by sorcerers. When the mega moais returned in X, they also gained the ability to breathe out fierce flames from their mouths.

Description		Their igneous bodies are helluva hard, but their HP's not too hot. If one musters its strength, batter it before it blasts you. They used to be full statues, but they were blasted to bits when the Magmaroo erupted, and only their heads were left.

Dragon Quest X edit

Mega moai appeared from the beginning of the game. They are able to muster their strength, breathe out Inferno, and use Dazzleflash.
