'''Cursed Equipment''', as its name implies, are weapons or armor pieces that are cursed and will inflict misfortune on those who equip them. Some items that are cursed will remain permanently equipped until the player must visits a [[Church]] and gets it removed. What curse befalls the player varies from equipment to equipment. <br />
Cursed Equipment are obvious to spot, be it their name, appearance, or their ominous item description. Sometimes Cursed Equipment are one of, if the most powerful items in the game, making them high-risk, high-reward.<br />
<br />
Later installments, starting with {{DQ8}}, introduced the [[Saint's ashes]], an item that rids the curse off the item, turning them into more powerful and useful equipment.<br />

'''Cursed Equipment''', as its name implies, are weapons or armor pieces that are cursed and will inflict misfortune on those who equip them. Some items that are cursed will remain permanently equipped until the player must visits a [[Church]] and gets it removed. What curse befalls the player varies from equipment to equipment. <br />
Cursed Equipment are obvious to spot, be it their name, appearance, or their ominous item description. Sometimes Cursed Equipment are one of, if the most powerful items in the game, making them high-risk, high-reward.<br />
<br />
Later installments, starting with {{DQ8}}, introduced the [[Saint's ashes]], an item that rids the curse off the item, turning them into more powerful and useful equipment.<br />

The '''Temple of Trials''' is the second [[bonus dungeon]] found in {{DQ3HD}}, hidden from the player until the godly [[Xenlon]] has been defeated. It is the celestial replacement for the [[Ice Cave]] that was found in the {{GBC}} version of ''Dragon Quest III'', and contains all the monsters that remained exclusive to that iteration of the game for several decades. The temple more than lives up to its name, challenging the player with the most difficult ordeals in the game.<br />
==Appearances==<br />
==={{DQ3HD}}===<br />
The temple is a heavenly palace made of gold that sits in the highest reaches of the world, towering even higher than the lofty {{Cloudsgate Citadel 3}}, with the apex of the holy place standing parallel with the moon. The only way to access the Temple of Trials is make a wish on Xenlon after besting Him in battle——this wish is represented by a blank space under the list of choices presented after the battle is over. Doing so will leave Him utterly shocked as to how the player even knows of its existence, but He never the less grants the request by opening a glowing portal high in the sky to the north of [[Aliahan]]. Reaching the ephemeral gate requires [[Ramia]]'s assistance, and she will perch on plinth in the temple's central chamber until the player opts to leave.<br />
<br />
The crux of the bonus dungeon is that the player is forbidden entry to the road leading to the top of the temple until the five pedestals surrounding Ramia's plinth have been set alight by the five grey ghosts inhabiting the palace. These spirits dwell in the the five chambers accessible via [[teleportal]]s and each presents a different challenge to the player.<br />
<br />
====Northeast chamber====<br />
This trial forces the player to equip [[Axe Weapon Family|axes]] or [[Staff Weapon Family|staves]] before entering, otherwise the party's damage output will be cut to 10% and the power of all monsters will be multiplied tenfold. The test at the end of the maze is a boulder puzzle similar to the one found in the basement of [[Edina]] castle, leading the way to the [[pandora's box]] boss fight. These super-charged mimmics far outclass their common kin and are almost impossible to defeat normally, but are thankfully vulnerable to [[Blasto]] and [[Poof]].<br />
<br />
====Northwest chamber====<br />
The trial demands that all characters be equipped with [[Boomerang Weapon Family|boomerangs]] or [[Claw Weapon Family|claws]] lest the party suffer the same penalties as in the northeast chamber. The puzzle is floor of rotating tiles like those found in the [[Tower of Rubiss]] and [[Zoma's Citadel]], with the boss battle being another group of pandora's boxes that can be bested via banishment.<br />
<br />
====Southwest chamber====<br />
This trial consists of a spirit requesting to see several items and equipment before it will light it's pedestal, being in order:<br />
<br />
*[[Hardwood headwear]] x4<br />
*[[Staff of sentencing]] x4<br />
*[[Epic apron]] x4<br />
*[[Slime earrings]] x4<br />
*[[Magic water]] x25<br />
*[[Elfin elixir]] x10 (x25 prior to the May 23, 2025 patch)<br />
*[[Flame armour]] x4<br />
<br />
The elfin elixir is sold in the [[Super Secret Faerie Village]] for an exorbitant 40,000 gold per phial, costing the player 400,000 gold in total (1,000,000 gold prior to the May 23, 2025 patch) if none are already on hand. The cash prizes for conquering the higher ranks of the [[Monster Arena]] will go a long way to covering this steep bill, and none of the necessary items are taken from the party during the trial.<br />
<br />
====Southeast chamber====<br />
This trial also consists of a spirit that wishes to see certain items before lighting it's pedestal, only the objects are almost exclusively high-end equipment:<br />
<br />
*[[Sword of Kings]]<br />
*[[Auroral helm]]<br />
*[[Gringham whip]]<br />
*[[Mod rod]]<br />
<br />
Due to the removal of the [[Treasures n' Trapdoors]] boards in the HD remake the only way to get a spare mod rod is by winning rank 8 of the Monster Arena in [[Cantlin]]. The gringham whip is the most difficult piece as it can only be obtained by collecting 105 [[List of mini medal locations in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|mini medals]]; as there are only 110 medals in the game and five of those are within Cloudsgate Citadel and the Temple of Trials itself, the player can only miss five medals.<br />
<br />
<big>'''NOTE:'''</big> The May 23rd 2025 update patch added a chest containing a gringham whip to the northeast chamber, allowing players to complete the temple without having to collect mini medals.<br />
<br />
====Southern chamber====<br />
The spirit of this trial will only light it's pedestal once the player has [[List of recruitable monsters in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|recruited 100 monsters]]. <br />
<br />
====Northern chamber====<br />
Once all five pedestals are activate the door to the north opens, revealing a winding road that leads to none other than the [[Grand Dragon]]. Despite quite literally towering over all other life on the planet, the golden serpent maintains a more approachable disposition towards mortals than Xenlon and will bequeath the party with the lofted [[grand medal]] if he can be defeated in twenty turns or less.<br />

*[[Xenlon]], lounging on the path to the Grand Dragon<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*The temple being a heavenly palace made of gold and only being accessible via a high-altitude portal once a superboss is defeated, as well as housing the game's ultimate superboss, is not unlike the rift in the skies of [[Erdrea]] that houses the [[Timewyrm]]<br />

The '''phoenix''' is a breed of radiant raptors that were once worshiped by man as deities, but any relation to the true [[Ramia|Everbird]] is just speculation.<br />
<br />
True to their namesake, these birds are able to rise from the ashes of near-defeat with their mastery of the [[Multiheal]] and [[Omniheal]] spells, as well as revive allies with [[Kazing]].<br />

The '''golden gloom''' is a dull yellow pallet swap of the [[cumaulus]] {{MFamilies}} that original appeared in the {{Game Boy Color}} port of {{Dragon Quest III}}.<br />
<br />
It was added into {{DQ10}} with the version 3.2 update, along with {{DQStars}} and ''Monster Parade'', making it one of the few {{MFamilies}}s to see subsequent appearances beyond the portable version of {{III}}.<br />
