Editorial Policy

This unofficial DRAGON QUEST Smash/Grow wiki follows a simple rule set: official sources first, player decisions first, and updates when the game or its terminology changes.

Source priority

  • Official English site materials come first for terminology, game systems, launch messaging, and visual references.
  • Official store pages and publisher press releases fill in platform details, launch timing, and supporting media.
  • Other strategy sites may help surface player questions, but they do not define the wording or copy on this site.

How pages are written for players

  • Reroll guides, tier lists, beginner builds, and wiki entries should answer the next useful player decision first.
  • Rankings and recommendations stay tied to progression value, banner timing, and practical play instead of isolated numbers.
  • Terminology is revised when official naming becomes clearer or when an in-game term changes player understanding.

How updates are handled

  • Pages are refreshed when official sources, launch balance, or player-facing systems change the answer in a meaningful way.
  • News posts are worth adding when an update shifts reroll value, builds, farming routes, or reference terminology.
  • Rumor coverage, filler rewrites, and low-value database expansion stay out unless they clearly help players.
