Yōgan majin

Description

They might look like champion rock chuckers, but it's their slap you want to watch out for. Hard to harm with earth or fire.

One theory suggests that they are the lava limbs of mega moai that went the way of most magma and flowed free.

Defeating magmalices is the objective of Quest #053: Magmalice Mania in order to receive a Magmalice handprint. The quest can be repeated as many times as possible.

Dragon Quest Tact

Magmalice appears as a C-rank monster of the Inorganic family as part of the limited True Dragon Quest III event. It can be scouted from the Jipang stage of Search for a Legend at any difficulty and it can participate in Robbin' 'Ood's Battle Road as a party member. The monster went by its old name Lavaman when it was introduced, but it was changed to Magmalice in a June 2023 update.
