Dragon Quest V Guides and Walkthroughs

Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride is a role-playing video game developed by Chunsoft and published by Enix (now Square Enix). It was first released in Japan in 1992 for the Super Famicom. The game follows the story of a young boy who goes on a journey to find his missing father and eventually becomes a legendary hero. The game features turn-based battles, a unique monster recruitment system, and a branching storyline that allows players to make choices that affect the outcome of the game. It was later remade for the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo DS with enhanced graphics and additional features.

Side Quest Guides

There are technically only two side quests in Dragon Quest V, the Knick-Knackatory as well as the Mini Medals side quest. You can begin both of these after obtaining the boat early on in the game and both of these locations become Zoom locations once visited.

Metal Slime Farming Location & Guide

When it comes to grinding monsters and farming in Dragon Quest games there is nothing better than Metal Slimes. Anyone familiar with the Dragon Quest series will know all about these enemies as they're a reoccuring theme in all of them. Basically, Metal Slimes are exceptionally rare and difficult to kill but they give 10x more EXP (roughly) than any other monsters.
