TAS originally published on 2006-02-08

This is the fifth published movie of Dragon Warrior, a seemingly complex, but ultimately, fairly simple NES RPG. The character completes his quest at Level 7. There are several things about this movie that might seem odd if one is not aware of them beforehand:

All unnecessary random encounters have been manipulated ( https://tasvideos.org/LuckManipulation ) into not happening
The player dies several times in order to get transported back to the beginning
Action commands are often intentionally not entered as soon as possible to manipulate critical hits and such
Note: The first AVI release of this movie had the wrong author name in it. The AVI was replaced a couple of hours later.
