The Minor Mallet, originally the Midge Mallet and also known as the Tiny Tapper, is a recurring key item in the Mana series. Its first appearance is in Secret of Mana. One whack with this magical hammer can enlarge or shrink anything it touches.
History[edit]
Secret of Mana[edit]
The Minor Mallet (Midge Mallet in the SNES version) can be acquired in Dwarf Village anytime after the events of the Thieves' Ship. Speak with the Dwarf Elder near the pit leading to the ship to claim. A short, yet odd fanfare will sound.
Trials of Mana[edit]
Chapter II[edit]
- “Hammer to change target's size”
- —In-game description
Upon discovering Laurent Secret Base, the party discuss with a Laurentian elder about an effective way to retake the captured Citadel. The elder mentions Donperi who helped the Hero King of Valsena defeat Dragon Lord. The tactician is a Koropokkur, a tribe of little folk who are known to dislike humans. Searching for a way to interact with Donperi, the party stumbles on a old lady in Beiser's Night Market giving out this mysterious mallet capable of shrinking a human down to Koropokkur size. The heroes seize the opportunity by taking the prized hammer and head to Rabite Forest where Koropokkur Woods is said to be.
Usage[edit]
The Minor Mallet can be used on one character to inflict the Shrink status. It can also be used to remove said status when already afflicted.
Sword of Mana[edit]
The Tiny Tapper is a key item in Sword of Mana. It can reduce the party's size, allowing them to enter small holes in walls. It is gifted by Inger inside Wendel's cathedral after completing sidequest #22 Detective Story.
