To kick off A Walk On The Wild Side, head over to the painter tucked away in the back corner of Gallopolis in Dragon Quest 11: Echoes Of An Elusive Age. He’ll request your help in defeating a Spizfire using the Pep Power Wild Side to spark his creativity.
You can choose to tackle this quest later in the game if you’d prefer to return when you’re at a higher level. It requires some careful timing to ensure you deliver the final blow using the Pep Power. Here’s how to do it and where to locate a Spizfire.
Where To Find A Spizfire In Dragon Quest 11
You can find a Spizfire in The Celestial Sands, located just north of Gallopolis. To get there, exit the city and take the main road heading west. After a while, the road will curve north and lead you through the Celestial Sands Checkpoint. Keep going past the ancient ruins until you reach a small alcove in the upper part of the area. The Spizfire will be resting by a rock, so if you’re quick, you can sneak up on it and launch your attack.
How To Beat A Spizfire With Wild Side In Dragon Quest 11
Wild Side is a special Pep Power utilized by the trio of Luminary, Erik, and Serena. To activate this power, you’ll need all three characters in a Pep state simultaneously. You can achieve this by using items or by guarding until they all reach that state. The primary objective of the quest is to take down Spizfire using this Pep Power, which significantly enhances Erik’s abilities and enables him to strike twice.
For safety, hit the Spizfire a couple of times to weaken it, and remember to use Divide on Erik before activating the Pep Power. With the right setup, you can maximize his damage output in just one turn. When you use Wild Side on Erik, he gains impressive stats.
- Agility by two ranks.
- Attack by two ranks.
- Defense by two ranks.
To ensure you land the final hit on Erik, consider putting the Spizfire to sleep before its turn or using Sleeper Hit. If the Spizfire is asleep, you can then unleash Persecutter for some serious damage.
