Scorching Flame is a recurring breath attack in the Dragon Quest series.
Localization history[edit]
しゃくねつのほのお had previously been translated as the Scorch in Plus-Alpha's work on the series, which was likely selected due to keeping character-count display limitations in mind for the first projects the group was hired for. These were Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King for the PlayStation 2 and Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker for the Nintendo DS.
The Japanese name was given a more elaborate English translation for Dragon Quest Tact, owing to the localization work being performed by a different group and mobile phones not suffering the same display constrictions as the aforementioned hardware.
Appearances[edit]
Dragon Quest Tact[edit]
Scorching Flame is known naturally by Maya Mahabala whenever she's under the Puff! state and costs no MP to use. It inflicts huge Frizz-type breath damage to all enemies in a large fan-shaped in front of her. Upgrading the skill increases its damage.
