Level scoring in Dragon Quest Swords

From Dragon Quest Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

After completing each level in Dragon Quest Swords, a score is tallied depending on how well the hero completed the level. This level score determines what rank the player receives, which determines the type and number of reward items.

Scoring categories[edit | edit source]

Time Completed[edit | edit source]

Time completed is the total time to complete the level, including defeating the boss. The amount of points awarded varies for each level due to each being of a different length. A lower time produces a higher score.

Enemies Defeated/Enemies Available[edit | edit source]

This category is basically a count of the number of enemies which escaped before being defeated. The score depends on both the total number of enemies available, as well as the percentage defeated. Enemies can escape from battle if the hero takes too long to defeat them.

Max Combo[edit | edit source]

This is the maximum consecutive combo achieved without missing a hit. The score for the number of hits varies on each level as some levels are easier to complete large combos. A higher number ensures a better score.

Accuracy Percentage[edit | edit source]

This score depends on total attempted hits and percentage of those hits landed.

Blocking Percentage[edit | edit source]

Same as accuracy, only for blocking hits against the hero.

Bonus[edit | edit source]

See main article: List of level bonuses in Dragon Quest Swords

There are various bonuses awarded if the player meets some specific criteria. These bonuses range in point values from 4000 to 200.

Level ranking[edit | edit source]

The highest level rank is X, followed by S, A, B, and C. The score values for each are:

  • Rank X - 18,000
  • Rank S - 12,000
  • Rank A - 8,000
  • Rank B - 4,000
  • Rank C - Less than 4,000

The higher rank achieved, the more rewards received. Each level has a reward item designated for rank S, A, and B. Achieving a higher rank merits the all rewards at and below that rank. Achieving an X rank merits an X rank-only item as well as double the normal amount of rewards.
