After Alltrades Abbey
do I need to go all the way back through the dungeon to get the fragment in that other city where everyone was imprisoned?

No,
you can access the place through the world map when you're leaving Alltrades Abbey. Though I did go through the dungeon and noticed how stupid I was later.

Yup, did the same thing. Oh well, more xp/gold...
Maribel was my main caster too and I'm doing fine with a full physical offensive party. Hero and Mervyn (Armamentalist) have mastered the Priest class and they also get healing spells. I've never run out of MP too and nothing since Maribel left the party has been a challenge for me except one ocasional boss.
I don't know if she joins the party again, though.

hahah ya I did the same thing, and was kicking myself afterwards.
lol, same.
Got into the
town the clock-tower.
No need. Just get some others with priest, which you need for Paladin anyway. Paladin and Champion both have multiheal and kazing, too.
Also
she does return if you want Sage/Druid for end game.
Yes, but it's three characters quite a while.

Well, so much for being finished job grinding. Got a Lvl 255 tablet with Walking Corpses. With their hearts I have 5 more monster classes I can master.
Just a short term thing
Yes.

Monday I beat malign vine. It was late so I closed my 3ds.
I brough my 3ds to work. My keys wedged open my 3ds at some point and I lost an hour of progress

DQ1: A giant green dragon was the first big mid-boss, and the big bad guy was the Dragonlord, a wizard who turns into a dragon.
The other games usually involve dragons in some form, but it's never the focus. DQ4-6 are most prominent as it's the Zenithian trilogy, which is basically heaven ruled by a dragon.
It makes more sense than every Final Fantasy after FF1.

As above said, it's a hold over from dq1. The game has been "Demon king quest" since dq3. Dragons usually pay a fairly big role in each game none the less. Except this one.
Hmmm, just beat Gracos,
How can I get that fragment? Should I return later?
Thanks
Back in the tower, top floor, I see the radar flashing indicating theres a fragment there, but I can't seem to find it or am I blind? I already talked a bunch of times to old man riffer and he keeps repeating the same thing about being old.
Setting in spoiler tag so people don't associate gracos with old man riffer, heh.

The story in the magic kingdom was fun but they could have toned down all the back and forth.

Leave the tower.
I had the same question.
Go back down to the portal on the first floor to leave to trigger the next event
I see, thanks

Well, you wouldn't have gotten far when the tower is on a secluded island
Thank you. I managed to get the king metal slime to join me on the first fight. Lucky!
So I beat the island with
and when returning to said island in the present theres a locked gate (similar to the one found in Estard)
. Should I have found the key to open these types of doors already or, much like with locked chests, I'll have to come back later with it?
Oh, and speaking of locked chests. After beating Gracos (I'm assuming his name is OK since it was just mentioned)
Is there a stronger key?
the flying people
with a warp behind it at the top of the sanctum
Oh, and speaking of locked chests. After beating Gracos (I'm assuming his name is OK since it was just mentioned)
you can go back in the present to his lair and beat his decedent. There are two chests next to his clourswap. After sparing him he opened one, but the other is locked. Magic key doesn't work on it.
I think so because there's still a bunch of locked stuff for me too.
1) You will go through that gate later in the story, don't worry, you won't miss it, it's mandatory.
2) You can optionally go back for that chest at the end of the game.
They're shortcuts that are mandatory during a certain section later in the game. Not super useful otherwise.

I have had multiple fights with trash mobs where i get DAZZLED and then my party almost wipes because they can't hit anything. Is there any way to heal or prevent this? I'm in the desert dungeon right now lvls 18-19. Any items I can stock up on or anything? I haven't seen anything that allows me to block or negate this effect and it's incredibly frustrating.
Switch to magic or focus down the monsters that dazzle.

But when Maribel is slept I have no other magic
Lots of magic weapons allow for casting spells. Or make sure you DO have multiple characters who can cast.
I believe you may need to speak to the innkeep first. I don't quite remember but I do remember getting stuck like you.

While it doesn't prevent it, if you have someone who went through/is currently in the warrior class they can use focus strength to make their next hit have 100% accuracy. Or since this skill only takes like 5 battles to learn, you can go ahead and have everyone spend 5 battles in the warrior class to grab it if it annoys you that much. It makes a good combo with Knuckle Sandwich against enemies Knuckle Sandwich works on(and later it can be combined with Oomph for even more damage)

Thanks figures it out at last
Okay, so how do you know how difficult a traveller's tablet dungeon is going to be before getting slaughtered in the first fight? Also, I can't quite figure what the point of them is. I got three new ones from the download bar and they have a level on them, so I tried one that had level 1 on it thinking it was easy and it had some pretty difficult monsters for my level (bonebarons and whatnot).
I'm not very far into the game, only at

Yeah, there's nothing in-game to give you an accurate read of what challenge you're facing. The only thing to go by is this (outdated) list on the main website:
http://dragonquest7.nintendo.com/expand/
They're there for you to fight and recruit "special" monsters not found anywhere else in the game. Also, the DLC tablets have no level cap limit, so you can use them to grind out job EXP, if you wish.
I barely made it through that fight. I was literally one round away from a total party wipe out and I got him with a Gigaslash.
I'd recommend hitting up the casino, I got a ton of cash and equipment by doing the pairs game(and cheating!).

I have enough fragments to go to both
and
, does it matter which one I go to first?
Providence
Nottagen
KittenMaster
Member
I believe both are eventually required and the order doesn't matter. I will suggest
you should have your fourth party member at this point, because I learned the hard way that you can do both Providence and Nottagen with still 3 party members and lose out on job leveling.

Oh, I do have the fourth party member. And I may have gone a little overboard on the job training.

You should have enough for Hubble too, unless you missed one. Granted I think most people would suggest Hubble for last.
