The '''Casino''' is a recurring mini-game in the {{DQSeries}}.

Casinos appear in all games beginning with {{DQ4}}. While gambling in the {{DQSeries}} began in {{II}}, where [[merchant]]s would give out [[tombola]] tickets for use similar to a slot machine, the full blown casino had its debut in the {{IV}}.

==Description==
[[Image:DQIV_Bunny_Girl.png|right|thumb|160px|One of the "mascots".]]
The Casino is a gambling hall, usually underground, where the player can use their {{Gold}} to purchase casino [[token]]s, or coins, which can then be wagered on various games of chance. The only reward for doing well in these games is more [[token]]s, but after accruing large amounts of them, the player can cash them in for various special items, many of which cannot be obtained anywhere else and are usually among the most powerful in the game. Simply buying enough [[token]]s to purchase the desired items would be insanely expensive, basically necessitating high performance on the casino floor if one wishes to obtain the best prizes. Of course, all games are set in favor of the player losing, so many devise special tricks to increase their odds. [[Token]]s cannot be exchanged for [[gold]].

The Casino is known for its "mascots", the energetic, bunny-eared young women who promote the location and do the more secretarial work.

{{DQ9}} was the first main series game since {{DQ}} to not include a form of gambling.

==Games==
===Slot machine===
Insert 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 [[token]]s for a chance to earn multiples of that amount with each spin. The input to return on these machines are very small in {{Dragon Quest IV}}. This game is the least likely to give the player a high return.

The Slot Machines in {{Dragon Warrior IV}} {{NES}} and {{Dragon Quest IV}} {{DS}} has 3 rows bets up to 5 coins and a small return for each win.

However in {{Dragon Quest V}}, {{VI}}, and {{XI}}, there are 5 rows which increases the chance of getting 3 or more in a row. The player can choose from 3 different slot machines colored either green, blue, or red which determines the minimum bet they can place. The player can place up to 9 [[token]]s on green slot machines, 90 [[token]]s on blue slot machines, and 900 [[token]]s on red slot machines. These machines can give the player a high return if they win. In {{Dragon Quest VI}}, there is another type of slot machine that works identically to the ones in {{IV}}.

In {{Dragon Quest VIII}} the slot machines work largely the same as they did in {{IV}}, with the exception being that the player can bet [[token]]s on slot machines that allow higher bets.

===Video Poker===
This game is played just like video poker (Jokers Wild video poker to be exact). The player is first dealt five cards. Then the player decides which cards to hold and which to draw. After the draw (if any) the player receives a payout for the following winning hands. Unlike real-life Jokers Wild video poker, the minimum pay out is two pair or better as opposed to pair of Kings or better. Also, any kind of Royal Flush will win the jackpot; in real video poker you must have a "natural" (no wild cards) Royal Flush for the jackpot. Starting with {{Dragon Quest V}}, only the Royal Jelly Flush wins the jackpot.

|}
Note: Because of the addition of the Joker that can become the highest card the player needs, the odds are slightly lower than in regular poker.

::'''Double or Nothing''': After winning the hand, the dealer will allow the player to go double or nothing, betting their winnings on the chance to double their winnings or lose everything. The game consists of guessing whether or not the face-down card will be higher or lower than the face-up card. Guessing correctly will double the winnings. Guessing incorrectly ends the game and the player leaves with nothing. If the card chosen is the same, it is a draw, and the player gets another chance to guess.

The {{NES}} version of {{Dragon Quest IV}}, {{Dragon Quest VI}}, and {{Dragon Quest XI}} instead have the player pick between four cards. The player must guess which of the four cards will be higher than the current face-up card.

::This game is played with a deck of 53 cards, including a Joker. The Joker is the highest and the four 2s are the lowest. Statistically, if the card is a 2, 3, or 4, the next card will be higher. Conversely, if the base card is an Ace, King or Queen, the next card will be lower. Should the Joker appear always pick lower. If the player understands statistics and has some luck, that player can rack up thousands of [[token]]s.

In the {{NES}} version of {{Dragon Warrior IV}}, the player can place up to 100 [[token]]s and get a high return if the player wins.

However in the [[Zenithia trilogy]] remakes, the player can only bet up to 10 [[token]]s and it is the least likely to give the player a high return.

In {{Dragon Quest XI}}, the player can bet up to 100 [[token]]s before the second act and up to 1000 after the second act. This gives the player a high return if they win.

===[[Monster Arena]]===
[[File:DQIII Romaria Casino.png|right|thumb|150px|{{Dragon Quest III}} Monster Arena]]
The [[Monster Arena]] has the player bet on one {{MFamilies}} out of a pool of 3-5 that will then battle each other. The odds are listed before the match and affect the payout, but not necessarily its outcome. Once the match begins, the battle is actually performed as it might happen on the field, opening up the possibility of misses and other events, such as the effects of particular moves. The player is initially limited to a bet of only 50 [[tokens at once, but can earn up to 10,000 [[token]]s in a single round if he continues to bet his winnings from previous rounds.

In {{Dragon Quest IV}} {{DS}} and {{Dragon Quest V}}, the [[Monster Arena] ] is the best way to win coins as it gives the player a high return if the player wins the bet.

===Lucky Panel===
Introduced in {{DQ7}}, the lucky panel is a matching game that allows the player to win items along with the usual [[token]]s. The game starts with the player revealing six cards. Doing so gives the player some knowledge of what is under that card. If the player matches a pair of cards before the game actually begins, they stay flipped. After the six cards are revealed, the player is given three chances to match all the cards. If the player can do so within the chances allotted, they win all three prizes in the game. There are 12 cards in the game.

*Two Astrological Aquarius signs
*Two Astrological Cancer signs
*Two Astrological Scorpio signs
*Two Astrological Sagittarius signs
*Two Cursive V cards
*Six prize cards, two for each prize
*Shuffle All Cards
*One Bonus Turn.

The player should avoid the Shuffle All Cards card. Flipping it will usually result in the player losing this game. The player should aim for the One Bonus Turn card as it will help the player win this game.

===Bingo===
Introduced in {{VIII}}, Bingo gives the player a bingo board with 24 set values plus a free space in the center. A machine randomly picks 10 numbers. Should the numbers form a five number line vertically, horizontally or diagonally, the player wins. The payout is higher the less numbers used to make Bingo.

===Roulette===
Introduced in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}, [http://www.onlinecasinocanadareviews.com/roulette.html Roulette] is equivalent to its real life counterpart, except that unlike a standard roulette wheel which has 00, 0, 1-36, the roulette wheel in this game consists of numbers 0-27 and no 00. A player puts a bet on a number in the hopes that a ball spinning on the roulette wheel lands on that particular number. They can also bet on the color, row, column, section, or corners. However, the payout becomes higher the less likely the odds are of the ball landing on a particular number.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
There are [[Monster Arena]] rings in [[Romaria]], [[Isis]], [[Manoza]] and [[Cantlin]]. The {{Hero 3}} is limited to placing bets to win [[gold]]. No special prizes are available.

==={{DQ4}}===
The casino is located in the castle town of [[Endor]] in the basement of the [[inn]]. It has a [[Monster Arena]], slot machines, and a poker table. In {{DQ4 Chapter 2}}, [[Alena]] and her entourage can buy 1 coin for 10 {{Gold}} and play at the casino while they are in town for the Endor Tournament. In {{DQ4 Chapter 3}}, {{Torneko}} meets {{Ragnar}} there and learns from him that the casino was closed for renovations, and doesn't reopen until near the end of the chapter and he can buy 1 coin for 200 {{Gold}}. In {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, the {{Hero 4}} discovers that {{Maya}} had blown all of her and {{Meena}}'s money. The player can buy 1 [[token]] for 20 {{Gold}}.

In the [[Cell phone]] remakes, some changes have been made in {{Dragon Quest IV}} {{DS}}. The Poker card game in the {{NES}} version allowed you to place up to 100 coins, the {{DS}} remake however only allows the player to place up to 10 coins. Some of the prizes have been replaced, The [[Liquid metal shield]] has been replaced with a [[Falcon blade]], A Spangled dress armor has been added to the prize list. A second casino opens once the [[Pioneer Town]] is fully developed. It offers a different set of prizes including [[Magical skirt]], [[Liquid metal helm]], [[Gospel ring]], than the [[Endor]] [[casino]], but does not have a [[Monster Arena]].

After crossing the [[Trans-Montane Tunnel]], The {{Hero 4}} receives a congratulations for crossing the tunnel for the 1,000th time (the number of times to cross varies). As a reward, The {{Hero 4}} receives 2,000 casino [[token]]s. In the [[Sony PlayStation]] and [[Nintendo DS]] Version, the number of [[token]]s awarded is 100.

The {{Hero 4}} will also receive 250,000 if [['The Big Book of Beasts']] is filled out with all of the enemies [[encounter]]ed.

In the {{NES}} version, it is highly recommended that the player goes to the Poker Card table and bets 100 coins and risk the double or nothing round bets to make more money. However this is risky as the player can lose money and may have to rest the game. Once they win money the player should save the game at the [[church]]. If playing this NES game on an emulator, the player can use a save state feature to win at the poker game.

In the [[Nintendo DS]] and [[Cell phone]] remakes, it is highly recommended that the player goes to the [[Monster Arena]] and bets up to 50 [[token]]s, they can place the bet on one {{MFamilies}} which often fights in 3 or 4 {{MFamilies}}s, the player has a 25 to 33 percent chance that the {{MFamilies}} they bet on will survive and win the fight. If the players {{MFamilies}}s wins the first round they can then choose to multiply their money and bet again on a {{MFamilies}}. However this is risky as the players {{MFamilies}} they bet on can die and lose the fight or if the player chooses to quit the round, sometimes the {{MFamilies}} battles will end in a tie if they use up too many turns and the player will get their money back and has to try again. If the player wins over 10,000 [[token]]s the {{MFamilies}} arena bet will end. Once they win money the player should save the game at the [[church]].

The Gospel ring accessory which turns off random encounters is actually a useless item in Dragon Quest IV since it isn't available until Chapter 6 and is often a useless item and isn't worth the 250,000 coins to get since the player is near the end of the game.

The player can make easy money by buying [[Prayer ring]]s for 500 [[token]]s and sell them for 2250 {{Gold}}. Later on, they can also buy [[Magical skirt]]s for 1000 [[token]]s and sell them for 7350 {{Gold}}.

==={{DQ5}}===
This installment has a casino in [[Fortuna]], in a highly decorated building at the center of town. It was the first casino to feature a slime race track.

In the remakes, a second casino is at the [[Pontoon and Ventuno|Ventuno]] Casino [[Ship]] ship near [[Pontoon and Ventuno|Pontoon]]. Aside from various games, both casinos also feature a {{T'n'T board}} in the lower level. The [[Fortuna]] casino features a [[Monster Arena]], while the [[Pontoon and Ventuno|Ventuno]] one has poker tables instead.

The player can make easy money at Port Haven by buying [[Silk tuxedo]] for 500 [[token]]s and sell it for 2625 {{Gold}}.

Falcon blade

}}

The '''Falcon blade''' is a {{Sword}} featured in multiple games in the {{DQSeries}}. The sword is incredibly fast, allowing those wielding it to attack twice in a single turn. In later games, it can be upgraded into an [[Über falcon blade]].

==Characteristics==
The Falcon blade is a one-handed sword with a slim blade, a blue hilt with a knuckle bow and gold pommel, and a stylized golden design of a flying bird on its crossguard which gives the sword its name. It shares characteristics with the real life European smallsword and rapiers. The design of the Falcon blade has stayed the same since it was first introduced and it has appeared in every main series game since {{II}} and even in multiple spinoffs.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +7 (+5 in the original {{NES}} version). It can be purchased from [[Slewse]] for 25,000 [[gold]] coins and can be equipped by the {{Hero 2}} and the [[Prince of Cannock]]. It is useful against enemies and giving the player a chance to attack enemies 2 times including Metal Slimes and Metal Babbles who often runs away from battle.

==={{DQ3}}===
The Falcon blade can be bought for 25,000 [[gold]] coins in [[Rimuldar]] and sold for 18,750 gold coins. It has an {{Attack}} bonus of +5. The {{Hero 3}}, [[Merchant]]s, [[Thief|Thieves]], and [[Sage]]s can equip it.

==={{DQ4}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and can be won from the [[Endor]] Casino for 65,000 tokens. It can be equipped by the {{Hero 4}}, [[Ragnar]], and the {{Psaro 9}}, who joins the party with a Falcon blade equipped. Also if the [[Pioneer Town]] gets upgraded to a castle. You can find a Falcon blade on the west side of the Castle on the ground.

You can attack the same enemy twice with it but won't carry over to a different monster and is useful against Metal slime, Liquid Metal Slime and Metal King Slime enemies who often run away. The falcon blade is the most expensive to get at Endor's casino as you have to bet at the monster arena for many hours before finally getting over 65,000 coins. And it will cost 130,000 coins total for the Hero and Ragnar early on in the beginning of Chapters 2, 3 and 5.

==={{DQ5}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and each strike hits for 75%, totaling up to 150%. It can be obtained by trading 30 Mini medals in the {{SFC}} version, or 35 [[Mini medal]]s to King Dominicus in the remakes. It can also be found on the [[Nadiria]] and Stark Raving Mad [[Treasures n' Trapdoors|T'n'T board]]s. It can be sold for 26250 [[gold]] coins, which is the most gold per medal of any of the items that can be acquired from King Dominicus.

==={{DQ6}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and a {{Style}} bonus of +32. It can be upgraded to have a style bonus of +60, though it costs 4800 gold to do so. [[Overkilling machine]]s drop them {{fraction|1|256}} of the time. Falcon blades can be obtained from either the [[Turnscote]] or [[Greedmore Valley]] casinos for 10,000 tokens. The {{Hero 6}}, [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Amos]], [[Terry]], and [[Goowain]] can equip them.

==={{DQ7}}===
The Falcon blade has the now standard {{Attack}} bonus of +67, but only deals 50% damage per strike, and a {{Style}} bonus of +32. It can be equipped by the {{Hero 7}}, [[Sir Mervyn]], and [[Aishe]]. It can be purchased from [[Buccanham]]'s Casino for 10,000 tokens and sold for 12,500 [[gold]] coins.

==={{DQ8}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +37 and returns to 75% per hit. It can be purchased from the [[Baccarat]] Casino for 10,000 tokens and can be sold for 5,000 [[gold]] coins. The {{Hero 8}} and [[Angelo]] can equip it, as well as [[Jessica Albert]] and [[Red]] provided they have the "Equip {{Sword}}s" ability. It can be upgraded in the [[Alchemy Pot]] by combining it with a [[Meteorite bracer]] into an [[Über falcon blade]].

==={{DQ9}}===

Equipping this, or the [[Über falcon blade|improved version]], doubles the number of swings taken when the wielder performs a physical attack. This means that a character who performs [[Falcon Slash]] while wielding one of these swords swings ''four'' times, each hitting for 75% as usual.

}}
The sword can also be found on [[Insula Occidentalis]], though the [[Magic Key]] is required to get it.

==={{DQH}}===
The falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +33 and can be equipped exclusively by [[Aurora]]. Its special effect is that it has a 30% chance of causing Aurora to divide when she attacks, similar to [[Terry]]'s [[Falcon Slash]] ability and [[Alena]]'s Divide and Conquer, and the clone will perform the same attacks as her for a short time. It can be purchased for 25,000 [[gold]] coins after the first visit to Dawnsholm.

The '''Liquid metal shield''' is a rather rare shield in the {{DQSeries}}, having been supplanted by the [[Metal king shield]] in ''[[Dragon Quest V]]''. It is an immensely durable shield, easily among the top tier in each game it appears in. It bears the emblem of a [[liquid metal slime]] at the center.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}}===
The Liquid metal shield has a defence bonus of +60 and casts [[Snub]] when used as a tool in battle. In the remakes of ''IV'', it also cuts fire and ice breath damage by 40 points. In the NES version, players can obtain the shield for 50,000 coins at [[Endor]]'s casino, and can only be equipped by [[Borya]], [[Kiryl]], [[Maya]], and [[Meena]]. It is the most protective shield in the game, being even stronger than the [[Zenithian shield]]. However it is the most expensive shield in the game and requires many hours at the casino Poker game and it costs 200,000 coins total for 4 characters who can equip it.

In the DS, Android, and iOS versions, the Liquid metal shield is no longer sold at Endor's casino, but there's only one shield in the game, and it can be only obtained from King Minikin for turning in 52 [[mini medal]]s. It can now be equipped by [[Ragnar]] and [[Psaro]].

The instruction manual for creating the shield, the '''[[List of fun-size forge recipe book locations in Dragon Quest XI|In Fine Fettle with Liquid Metal]]''', is found in a treasure chest inside the [[Fortress of Fear]].

===''[[Dragon Quest Swords]]''===
This shield is generally considered the most difficult item to acquire in the game due to high randomness associated with winning it by playing the [[Tombola|tombola game]] held within [[Castle Avalonia]]. Note that the player must win the special prize twice in order to receive it. It increases the [[Hero (Dragon Quest Swords)|Hero's]] defence by+10 and can be sold for 8,000.

The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and can be won from the [[Endor]] Casino for 65,000 tokens. It can be equipped by the {{Hero 4}}, [[Ragnar]], and the {{Psaro 9}}, who joins the party with a Falcon blade equipped. Also if the [[Pioneer Town]] gets upgraded to a castle. You can find a Falcon blade on the west side of the Castle on the ground.

You can attack the same enemy twice with it, but won't carry over to a different monster. The falcon blade is expensive to get at Endor's casino as you have to bet at the monster arena for many hours before finally getting over 65,000 coins.

==={{DQ5}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and each strike hits for 75%, totaling up to 150%. It can be obtained by trading 30 Mini medals in the {{SFC}} version, or 35 [[Mini medal]]s to King Dominicus in the remakes. It can also be found on the [[Nadiria]] and Stark Raving Mad [[Treasures n' Trapdoors|T'n'T board]]s. It can be sold for 26250 [[gold]] coins, which is the most gold per medal of any of the items that can be acquired from King Dominicus.

==={{DQ6}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +67 and a {{Style}} bonus of +32. It can be upgraded to have a style bonus of +60, though it costs 4800 gold to do so. [[Overkilling machine]]s drop them {{fraction|1|256}} of the time. Falcon blades can be obtained from either the [[Turnscote]] or [[Greedmore Valley]] casinos for 10,000 tokens. The {{Hero 6}}, [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Amos]], [[Terry]], and [[Goowain]] can equip them.

==={{DQ7}}===
The Falcon blade has the now standard {{Attack}} bonus of +67, but only deals 50% damage per strike, and a {{Style}} bonus of +32. It can be equipped by the {{Hero 7}}, [[Sir Mervyn]], and [[Aishe]]. It can be purchased from [[Buccanham]]'s Casino for 10,000 tokens and sold for 12,500 [[gold]] coins.

==={{DQ8}}===
The Falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +37 and returns to 75% per hit. It can be purchased from the [[Baccarat]] Casino for 10,000 tokens and can be sold for 5,000 [[gold]] coins. The {{Hero 8}} and [[Angelo]] can equip it, as well as [[Jessica Albert]] and [[Red]] provided they have the "Equip {{Sword}}s" ability. It can be upgraded in the [[Alchemy Pot]] by combining it with a [[Meteorite bracer]] into an [[Über falcon blade]].

The sword can also be found on [[Insula Occidentalis]], though the [[Magic Key]] is required to get it.

==={{DQH}}===
The falcon blade has an {{Attack}} bonus of +33 and can be equipped exclusively by [[Aurora]]. Its special effect is that it has a 30% chance of causing Aurora to divide when she attacks, similar to [[Terry]]'s [[Falcon Slash]] ability and [[Alena]]'s Divide and Conquer, and the clone will perform the same attacks as her for a short time. It can be purchased for 25,000 [[gold]] coins after the first visit to Dawnsholm.

Happy hat

CrosswalkX — Sun, 02 Apr 2023 02:25:32 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Appearances */ Added information on Torneko stealing the Happy Hat from Liquid Metal Slime.

}}

The '''Happy hat''' is a recurring hat in the {{DQSeries}}. This wondrous pink wizard hat recovers the wearer's {{MP}} while walking on the field. It appears to have a magical flower growing from it.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}}===
The Happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +15 and restores 1 MP for every 4 steps. It can be worn by [[Borya]], [[Kiryl]], {{Maya}}, and {{Meena}}. In the original NES version, one can be received as a reward for turning in 4 [[mini medal]]s to the [[Medal King]], while in all remake versions of the game, it is a reward for turning in 43 medals. It also has a {{fraction|1|128}} chance of being dropped by [[Liquid metal slime]]s or randomly stolen by Torneko in your party. It's best to have the Sands of Time item and enter a battle with Liquid metal slime with another monster who won't run away. Also have everybody defend except for Torneko who will randomly steal a Liquid metal helm. If the Liquid metal slime runs away or Torneko accidentally kills one, use the Sands of Time to bring the Liquid metal slime back to the battle. The hat can be sold for a measly 11 [[gold]] coins, but it is not recommended to do so.

==={{DQ5}}===
The Happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +35 and restores 1 {{MP}} per step. It can be equipped by {{Bianca}}, {{Nera}}{{Madchen}}, [[Sancho]], and several monster companions. The hat is found in [[Gotha]] Castle behind a door that is locked with the [[Ultimate Key]]. It can be sold for 6,750 [[gold]] coins, but it is not recommended to do so since there is only one in the entire game.

==={{DQ6}}===
The Happy hat restores 1 {{MP}} per 8 steps on the world map and 16 in dungeons, towns, castles, etc. It has a {{Defence}} bonus of +35, but reduces the wearer's {{Style}} by 17. It can only be equipped by [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Nevan]], and some of the slime companions. The hat is received as a prize for winning Level 8 of the Best Dressed contest at [[Château de Sass]]. It can also be dropped by [[Liquid metal slime]]s at a rate of {{fraction|1|256}}, but having a {{Party 6}} of [[Thief|Thieves]] at rank 8 raises the rate to {{fraction|1|32}}.

==={{DQ7}}===
The Happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +37, but once again reduces the wearer's {{Style}} by 17. It recovers 1 {{MP}} for every 4 steps, which is slightly inferior to the [[Goddess ring]] (which recovers 1 {{MP}} for every 2 steps). It can be worn by the {{Hero 7}}, {{Maribel}}, [[Ruff]], and [[Sir Mervyn]]. It is not sold in any shops, but it can be won from the Lucky Panel at [[Buccanham]]'s [[Casino]]. It can also be dropped by [[Platinum king jewel]]s at a {{fraction|1|128}} rate, but a {{Party 7}} of mastered [[Thief|Thieves]] will raise this to {{fraction|1|16}}. They can be sold for 10,000 [[gold]] coins, but it is not recommended to do so.

==={{DQ8}}===
The Happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +31. It can only be worn by {{Jessica}} and [[Angelo]]. It can be obtained from Dodgy Dave in [[Pickham]] in exchange for the [[Sandstorm spear]] or made in the [[Alchemy Pot]] with the [[Feathered cap]] and [[Elevating shoes]]. The hat can be sold for 10,000 gold coins, but as always, it is not recommended to do so.

Gospel ring

CrosswalkX — Sun, 02 Apr 2023 02:17:10 GMT

CrosswalkX: Added additional information about the gospel ring being a useless accessory near the end of the game.

{{Item
|title = Gospel Ring
|image = [[File:DQVIIIGospelRing.png|center|240px]]
|japanese = {{tt|ゴスペルリング|gosuperu ringu}}
|names = Gospel Ring

}}

The '''Gospel ring''' is a recurring accessory in the {{DQSeries}} that first appeared in {{DQ7}}.

It prevents random [[encounter]]s while it is worn.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}} (remakes only)===
The Gospel ring is an accessory that increases {{Luck}} by 50, and allows the [[Chosen Ones|party]] to avoid random [[encounter]]s. It's available in the [[Casino]] in the [[Pioneer Town]] for 250,000 tokens.

'''However at this point in the game, the accessory item is actually useless and a waste of money in chapter 6 since the player at this point is near the end of the game and isn't worth it.'''

==={{DQ6}} (remakes only)===
The Gospel ring is an accessory that increases {{Defence}} by +15, and {{Style}} by +30. It is obtainable at the {{Alltrades Abbey 6}} by speaking to the Abbot after getting to the 5th level of each {{Vocation}}.

==={{DQ7}}===
The Gospel ring has a {{Defence}} bonus of +50, a {{Style}} bonus of +30, and can be equipped by all characters. It is acquired after registering every enemy into the [['The Big Book of Beasts']]. In the {{PSX}} version, if the player did not defeat [[Gracos V]] before the resurrection of [[Numen|The Almighty]] in Disc 2, it is impossible to fully complete all entries and receive the Gospel ring.

In the {{3DS}} version, it is still possible to challenge [[Gracos V]] and receive his entry. Additionally, it isn't necessary to gain entries on of the special monsters that are exclusive to the DLC tablets to receive the ring.

==={{DQ8}}===
The [[Gospel ring]] is an accessory that increases {{Defence}} by +5, allows the {{Party 8}} to avoid random encounters, and can be equipped by all characters. It is received from King [[Trode]] after defeating every enemy in the game.
*In the {{3DS}} version, it is not necessary to defeat all of the bosses in [[Memories Lane]], but the player must encounter all of the enemies at the [[Altar of Wroth]], one of the new dungeons in the game.

Liquid metal slime

CrosswalkX — Sun, 30 Sep 2018 21:15:33 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */ Updated information on liquid metal slime.

{{Monster Infobox
|title=Liquid metal slime
|image=[[Image:DQII_Liquid_Metal_Slime.png|320px]]

<center>''For the secret class in [[Dragon Quest VI]], see [[Liquid Metal Slime (Class)]].''</center>

The '''Liquid Metal Slime''' (formerly ''Metal Babble'', later ''Metabble'' due to display constraints) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', it is a metallic [[bubble slime]] that acts as a large source of experience points.

==Characteristics==
In terms of appearance, liquid metal slimes are essentially identical to bubble slimes, but are a slick silver in color and shine.

Liquid metal slimes have the standard qualities of [[metal monsters]]: high agility, high defense, immunity to essentially all forms of magic and skills, very low HP, very high experience payout, and the unfavorable habit of running away from battle frequently. Although a step up from the metal slime, the liquid metal slime is rarely shown to be competent at fighting, its only enhancements being its HP and the experience it gives when compared to metal slimes.

A popular strategy for vanquishing the L.M.S. is to have your [[mage]] and [[priest]] cast [[Puff!]] and [[Accelerate]] on the first turn of the encounter, incinerating them automatically on the next turn. For [[warrior]]s, the [[Spiked armour]] is handy to punish them for attacking directly and having a [[Falcon blade]] will give them twice as many chances to attack. A [[martial artist]] of a reasonably high level will have a great critical hit rate to rely upon as well.

Liquid Metal Slimes are commonly found in the [[Royal Crypt]] southwest of [[Endor]] by sea. They can occasionally drop Happy hats or Torneko can steal one at random. It is best to use the Sands of time item as they can run away and it may take many tries before Torneko successfully steals a happy hat at random.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
Liquid metal slimes can be encountered shortly after the player obtains a ship. Though they remain an excellent source of experience points, they also have a habit of appearing alongside troublesome monsters such as [[hoodlum]]s and [[hocus chimaera]]s. Exceptionally lucky and/or vigilant players may obtain a defeated liquid metal slime [[liquid metal slime (Recruit)|as an ally]], one of the most potent monster partners that can be had in the game.

The liquid metal slime can be found in the [[Halfling's Cave]] in the past, the [[Great Lighthouse]] in the past and present, the [[Excavated Cave]], the [[Demon Lord's Lair]], the [[Mentare]] region in Disc 2, the [[Krage]] region in Disc 2 and the [[Loomin]] region in Disc 2.

Prayer ring

CrosswalkX — Sun, 30 Sep 2018 21:02:46 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */ Updated information on the Prayer ring accessory

[[File:DQVIII_Prayer_Ring.png|right|border|170px]]

The '''Prayer Ring''' (formerly ''Wizard Ring'') is a recurring accessory in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] series. It's designed to recharge MP on use, but has a 33.3% risk of breaking. It is a tiny gold band with a cloudy blue pearl fixed on it.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest II]]''===
The Prayer Ring can be found in various chests and is the second-prize reward from the [[Tombola]]. It can be sold for 1950, but this isn't recommended. When used it will restore 25~30 MP in the original, and 20~27 in the remakes.

===''[[Dragon Quest III]]''===
The ring can be found in various chests, or bought in the Faerie Village – but only if the party uses the [[Mod rod]] to change shape first. The faerie shop keeper will charge 2500 for a ring and buy them back for 1875. The ring will restore 10~34 MP in all versions, and is is '''strongly''' recommended to stockpile them in advance of the final leg of the journey.

===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
The Prayer Ring is a normal item in the original version of the game, but classified as an accessory that increases defence by 5 in the various remakes. and restores 20~30 MP when used. In the original 8-bit version of ''IV'' the ring will '''always break''' when used in battle. The Prayer ring in the DS, Android, iOS remake can be bought at Endor's casino for 500 coins and it can be sold for 2250 gold.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
The ring will restore 20~30 MP, but is eclipsed by the more potent [[Elfin elixir]].

===''[[Dragon Quest VI]]''===
''VI'' is the first game in which the ring is classified as an accessory, owing to the vast increase of equipable ornaments. It increases defence by +5, style by +22, and can be worn by [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Terry]], and the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)|Hero]]. It 20~30 MP when used.

===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
The ring's fashion factor has dropped considerably for some reason in ''VII'', increasing style only by +3. It still provides +5 defence, and anyone not named [[Kiefer]] can equip it. When used it will restore 20~30 MP and, in the 3DS remake at least, its chance to break has been reduced to 12.5% ({{fraction|1|8}}).

===''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''===
''A ring that restores some of the wearer's MP when used as an item.''

The prayer ring can now be purchased as a normal item in the [[Argonia]] bazaar without having to meet any odd requirements first, with merchants charging 9000 for it. It increases defence by +5 once again, and restores 20~30 MP.

More importantly, the ring is a vital ingredient in several [[List of alchemy recipes in Dragon Quest VIII|alchemical]] recipes.

Unlike most accessories, the ring can be worn by any vocation and sex. As with ''VIII'', the ring is incredibly potent when used in [[Lists of alchemy recipes in Dragon Quest IX|alchemy]].

Rings can be purchased from Cap'n Max by trading three [[Mini medal]]s, can be dropped/stolen from [[Genie sanguini]] ({{fraction|1|64}}), and [[Hocus chimaera]] ({{fraction|1|128}}).

Casino

CrosswalkX — Sun, 30 Sep 2018 21:00:10 GMT

CrosswalkX: Updated information on casino tips for Dragon Quest 4, 6.

[[Image:DQVCasino.png|thumb|right|450px|The Fortuna casino in ''[[Dragon Quest V]]''.]]
The '''Casino''' is a recurring mini-game in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Casinos appear in all games beginning with ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''. While gambling in the ''Dragon Quest'' series began in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', where merchants would give out [[lottery]] tickets for use similar to a slot machine, the full blown casino had its debut in the fourth title.

==Description==
[[Image:DQIV_Bunny_Girl.png|right|thumb|160px|One of the "mascots".]]
The Casino is a gambling hall, usually underground, where the player can use their [[gold]] coins to purchase casino coins, or tokens, which can then be wagered on various games of chance. The only reward for doing well in these games is more tokens, but after accruing large amounts of them, the player can cash them in for various special items, many of which cannot be obtained anywhere else and are the most powerful in the game. Simply buying enough tokens to purchase the desired items would be insanely expensive, basically necessitating high performance on the casino floor if one wishes to obtain the best prizes. Of course, all games are set in favor of the player losing, so many devise special tricks to increase their odds. Tokens cannot be exchanged for gold.

The Casino is known for its "mascots", the energetic, bunny-eared young women who promote the location and do the more secretarial work.

''[[Dragon Quest IX]]'' was the first main series game since ''Dragon Quest'' to not include a form of gambling.

==Games==
===Slot machine===
Insert 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 tokens for a chance to earn multiples of that amount with each spin. The input to return on these machines are very small in Dragon Quest IV. This game is the least likely to give the player a high return.

The Slot Machines in Dragon Warrior IV NES and Dragon Quest IV DS has 3 rows bets up to 5 coins and a small return for each win.

However in Dragon Quest V, VI, there are 5 rows which increases the chance of getting 3 or more in a row, they can choose from 3 different slot machines, place up to 9 coins, 90, coins, and 900 coins. This game can give the player a high return if they win.

===Poker===
This game is played just like video poker (Jokers Wild video poker to be exact). The player is first dealt five cards. Then the player decides which cards to hold and which to draw. After the draw (if any) the player receives a payout for the following winning hands. Unlike real-life Jokers Wild video poker, the minimum pay out is two pair or better as opposed to pair of Kings or better. Also, any kind of Royal Flush will win the jackpot; in real video poker you must have a "natural" (no wild cards) Royal Flush for the jackpot.

|1,296,600 to 1
|500 to 1
|}
Note: Because of the addition of the Joker that can become the highest card the player needs, the odds are slightly lower than in regular poker.

::'''Double or Nothing''': After winning the hand, the dealer will allow the player to go double or nothing, betting their winnings on the chance to double their winnings or lose everything. The game consist of guessing whether or not a given card is higher or lower than the face-up card. Guessing correctly will double the winnings. Guessing incorrectly ends the game and the player leaves with nothing. If the card is the same, it is a draw and the player gets another chance to guess high or low.

::This game is played with a deck of 53 cards, including a Joker. The Joker is the highest and the four 2s are the lowest. Statistically, if the base card is a 2, 3, or 4, the next card will be higher. Conversely, if the base card is an Ace, King or Queen, the next card will be lower. Should the Joker appear always pick lower. If the player understands statistics and has some luck, that player can rack up thousands of tokens.

In the NES version of Dragon Warrior IV, the player can place up to 100 coins and get a high return if the player wins.

However in the Dragon Quest IV DS remake, the player can only bet up to 10 coins and it is the least likely to give the player a high return.

===[[Monster Arena]]===
[[File:DQIII Romaria Casino.png|right|thumb|150px|''Dragon Quest III'' monster arena]]
The Monster Arena has the player bet on one monster out of a pool of 3-5 that will then battle each other. The odds are listed before the match and affect the payout, but not necessarily its outcome. Once the match begins, the battle is actually performed as it might happen on the field, opening up the possibility of misses and other events, such as the effects of particular moves. The player is initially limited to a bet of only 50 tokens at once, but can earn up to 10,000 tokens in a single round if he continues to bet his winnings from previous rounds.

In Dragon Quest IV DS, the Monster Arena is the best way to win coins as it gives the player a high return if the player wins the bet.

===Lucky Panel===
Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'', the lucky panel is a matching game that allows the player to win items along with the usual tokens. The game starts with the player revealing six cards. Doing so gives the player some knowledge of what is under that card. If the player matches a pair of cards before the game actually begins, they stay flipped. After the six cards are revealed, the player is given three chances to match all the cards. If the player can do so within the chances allotted, they win all three prizes in the game. There are 12 cards in the game.

*Two Astrological Aquarius signs
*Two Astrological Cancer signs
*Two Astrological Scorpio signs
*Two Astrological Sagittarius signs
*Two Cursive V cards
*Six prize cards, two for each prize
*Shuffle All Cards
*One Bonus Turn.

The player should avoid the Shuffle All Cards card. Flipping it will usually result in the player losing this game. The player should aim for the One Bonus Turn card as it will help the player win this game.

===Bingo===
Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]'', Bingo gives the player a bingo board with 24 set values plus a free space in the center. A machine randomly picks 10 numbers. Should the numbers form a five number line vertically, horizontally or diagonally, the player wins. The payout is higher the less numbers used to make Bingo.

===Roulette===
Introduced in ''Dragon Quest VIII'', [http://www.onlinecasinocanadareviews.com/roulette.html Roulette] is equivalent to its real life counterpart. A player puts a bet on a number in the hopes that a ball spinning on the roulette wheel lands on that particular number. They can also bet on the color, row, column, section, or corners. However, the payout becomes higher the less likely the odds are of the ball landing on a particular number.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest III]]''===
There are monster fight rings in [[Romaria]], [[Isis]], [[Manoza]] and [[Cantlin]]. The hero is limited to placing bets to win gold. No special prizes are available.

===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
The casino is located in the castle town of [[Endor]] in the basement of the [[inn]]. It has a monster battle arena, slot machines, and a poker table. In Chapter 2, [[Alena]] and her entourage can buy 1 coin for 10 Gold and play at the casino while they are in town for the Endor Tournament. In Chapter 3, [[Torneko]] meets [[Ragnar]] there and learns from him that the casino was closed for renovations, and doesn't reopen until near the end of the chapter and he can buy 1 coin for 200 gold. In Chapter 5, the [[hero (Dragon Quest IV)|hero]] discovers that [[Maya]] had blown all of her and [[Meena]]'s money. The player can buy 1 coin for 20 Gold.

In the DS, iOS, Android remakes, some changes have been made in Dragon Quest IV DS. The Poker card game in the NES version allowed you to place up to 100 coins, the DS remake however only allows the player to place up to 10 coins. Some of the prizes have been replaced, The Metal Babble Shield has been replaced with a Falcon Blade, A Spangled Dress armor has been added to the prize list. A second casino opens once the [[Pioneer Town]] is fully developed. It offers a different set of prizes including Magical Skirt, Liquid metal helm, Gospel Ring, than the Endor casino, but does not have a Monster Arena.

After crossing the [[Trans-Montane Tunnel]], The [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]] receives a congratulations for crossing the tunnel for the 1,000th time (the number of times to cross varies). As a reward, The Hero receives 2,000 casino tokens. In the [[Sony PlayStation]] and [[Nintendo DS]] Version, the number of tokens awarded is 100.

The Hero will also receive 250,000 if [['The Big Book of Beasts']] is filled out with all of the enemies encountered.

In the NES version, it is highly recommended that the player goes to the Poker Card table and bets 100 coins and risk the double or nothing round bets to make more money. However this is risky as the player can lose money and may have to rest the game. Once they win money the player should save the game at the church.

In the Nintendo DS, iOS, Android version, it is highly recommended that the player goes to the Monster Arena and bets up to 50 tokens, they can place the bet on one monster which often fights in 3 or 4 monsters, the player has a 25 to 33 percent chance that the monster they bet on will survive and win the fight. If the players monsters wins the first round they can then choose to multiply their money and bet again on a monster. However this is risky as the players monster they bet on can die and lose the fight or if the player chooses to quit the round, sometimes the monster battles will end in a tie if they use up too many turns and the player will get their money back and has to try again. If the player wins over 10,000 coins the monster arena bet will end. Once they win money the player should save the game at the church.

The player can make easy money by buying Prayer Rings for 500 coins and sell them for 2250 gold. Later on, they can also buy Magical Skirts for 1000 coins and sell them for 7350 gold.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
''Dragon Quest V'' has a casino in [[Fortuna]], in a highly decorated building at the center of town. It was the first casino to feature a slime race track.

In the remakes, a second casino is at the [[Pontoon and Ventuno|Ventuno]] Casino [[Ship]] ship near [[Pontoon and Ventuno|Pontoon]]. Aside from various games, both casinos also feature a [[T'n'T board]] in the lower level.

{{Translation|'''Dragon Quest IV'''|ドラゴンクエストIV 導かれし者たち|Doragon Kuesuto Fō Michibikareshi Monotachi|literally meaning; ''The People Who Are Shown the Way''}} is a role-playing game and the fourth installment of the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' video game series. The game was originally released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]], but has been remade several times for different systems. It begins the ''Tenkuu'' (''Celestial'') trilogy, known better as the ''Zenithian'' trilogy in English.

It was originally released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|Famicom]] on February 11, 1990 in Japan. The North American version, titled ''Dragon Warrior IV'', was released for the NES in October 1992.

==Setting==
''IV'' is the first of the series to not be related to the [[Erdrick trilogy|lineage of Erdrick]]--the game is the first of a new trilogy revolving around the legend of a [[Zenithia trilogy|castle in the sky]] that watches over the world below. The world map is of a comparable size to that of ''III'', but has no direct parallels to the real world in regards to the shape of the continents and nature of the kingdoms.

==Plot==
The story in ''IV'' is a more character-focused tale centered around the lives of the chosen ones prior to and during their quest to prevent the resurrection of the ruler of evil, [[Estark]]. The first four chapters of the story are about the hero's companions and their own challenges and hardships. While they each travel with their own goals and dreams in mind, they all eventually discover the conspiracy of [[Psaro]] the Manslayer to drive the human race to extinction via Estark's hellish power.

===Prologue===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Prologue|Prologue]]''

We are introduced to [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|The Hero]] and his/her friend [[Eliza]]. This portion of the story was introduced in the PlayStation version, and became standard in later remakes.

===Chapter 1===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 1| Chapter 1]]''

[[Ragnar McRyan]], one of the soldiers in the royal palace of [[Burland]], is sent by the king on a journey to find out why children are disappearing across the kingdom.

===Chapter 2===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 2| Chapter 2]]''

[[Alena]], princess (Tsarevna in the Nintendo DS localization) of [[Zamoksva]], who slips out of the castle in hopes of seeing the world that exists beyond the castle walls. She is accompanied by the priest [[Kiryl]] and the mage [[Borya]].

===Chapter 3===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 3| Chapter 3]]''

[[Torneko Taloon]] lives in [[Lakanaba]] with his wife and son, and works part-time in the local weapon shop. He aims to become the best merchant in the world, and begins his chapter in search of a regional treasure that could help him accomplish his goal.

===Chapter 4===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 4| Chapter 4]]''

[[Maya]] the dancer and her younger sister [[Meena]], the fortune teller, have left [[Laissez Fayre]] in search of vengeance against [[Balzack]], their father's traitorous apprentice.

===Chapter 5===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 5| Chapter 5]]''

The [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]] has been brought up by the inhabitants of a remote and nameless mountain village. But [[Psaro]] and his legions destroy the village, leaving only the hidden hero alive. The hero leaves in search of his seven companions, in the hopes of defeating Psaro and saving the world.

===Chapter 6===
:''Main article: [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 6| Chapter 6]]''

Chapter 6 is a post-epilogue continuation of the game's storyline. Originally appearing in the PlayStation remake of ''Dragon Quest IV'', Chapter 6 offers a lengthy bonus dungeon, and the culmination of certain plot points that were left ambiguous in the original release.

==New features==
===Artificial intelligence===
In a bold move for an NES title, a significant portion of the game's memory was dedicated to an intricate artificial intelligence that controls party members during the fifth chapter. In the fifth chapter of the NES version of the game, the player no longer directly controls any of the previous characters; instead using the Tactics menu to deliver a loose set of instructions (Normal, Defensive, Offensive, Save MP, Use No MP, Try Out). The only character directly controlled is the Hero. All chapters except chapter 2 also contain Non-Player Characters, which travel with the player, but cannot be directly controlled. They act on their own, guided by the game's AI.

===Party expansion===
*Every chapter save the second includes a non-chosen party member who will assist the group temporarily during their travels together. Each is tied to a story element of the chapter and reflect that section of the story's tone.
*A [[wagon]] was implemented to transport up to eight party members at the same time, allowing for battle configurations to be rearranged to suit any encounter at will. Certain dungeons will not allow the wagon to enter the area, however.

===Collectibles===
*[[Mini medals]] are scattered throughout the world for the player to gather at their leisure, which can be exchanged for incredible equipment at the palace of the [[Medal king]].
*Items are now hidden in drawers, cabinets, and urns in addition to chests. Contents range from stat boosting seeds to common item and small sums of gold.

===[[Casino]]===
Building upon the gambling featured in the monster arenas of ''III'', the fourth game allows players to explore a large casino in the city of [[Endor]]. Redeemable tokens can be won at slot machines, poker, and monster betting, which can be spent on exclusive items and equipment.

==Legacy==

===Remakes===
''Dragon Quest IV'' was remade for the [[Sony PlayStation]] on November 22, 2001 in Japan. It was developed by Heartbeat and published by Enix. The remake was developed using ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'' 's 3D graphics engine. With this remake came new features; among them were a new chapter, a new character, a boom town reminiscent of ''VII'''s, an [[Party chat|inter-party talk]] command similar to ''Dragon Quest VII'', and the ability to turn off the artificial intelligence for party members. The Enix of America Corporation originally planned to bring the remake to North America in 2002, but it was later cancelled due to Heartbeat closing its video game development operations.

On November 22, 2007, this Playstation remake was ported to the Nintendo DS. No significant changes were made to the game's story, gameplay, or bonus features, aside from modifying the boom town's immigration aspects to reflect the lack of memory cards in the DS hardware and the calculation method for [[Alena]]'s [[Critical Hit]]s. The [[Fungeon (Dragon Quest IV)|Fungeon]] ([[bonus dungeon]]) changed it's layout to random locations for each floor, whereas the Playstation Version was a mix of previous areas from the game and from ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''. This portable version was released internationally in September of 2008. An oversight in the localization process created a bug in the programming that made it impossible to access the party chat, despite all dialogue being fully translated into English.

On April 7, 2014, the Playstation remake was ported to iOS and Android compatible devices. This version features significantly sharper graphics than before, as well as a fully orchestrated soundtrack. No significant gameplay changes were made aside from yet another tweaking of the Tsarevna's critical hit ratio, and a slight change adding a detour in the boom town development. The bonus dungeon layout from the DS port was retained. This version was released world wide on August 7, 2014, and most importantly restored the long-lost party chat to much critical acclaim.

===Sequels===
''[[Dragon Quest V]]'' has some references to ''Dragon Quest IV'', but is mostly an independent story that does not heavily rely on the previous entry. The adventure of the chosen is known only by a scant few individuals, which further separates the Zenithian trilogy from it's predecessor.

==Soundtrack==
[[File:Monster Battle Victory DQ IV group.png|right|border|450px]]
[[Koichi Sugiyama]] composed the music and directed all the associated spin-offs. This is the track listing of the Symphonic Suite:
# ''[[Overture]]'' (1:55)
# ''Minuet'' (3:07)
# ''Comrades'' (10:28)
# ''In a Town'' (8:16)
# ''Homeland ~ Wagon Wheels' March'' (5:58)
# ''Frightening Dungeons ~ Cursed Towers'' (5:19)
# ''Elegy ~ Mysterious Shrine'' (5:03)
# ''Balloon's Flight'' (4:32)
# ''Sea Breeze'' (4:31)
# ''The Unknown Castle'' (4:37)
# ''Battle for the Glory'' (7:51)
# ''The End'' (5:12)

==Version Differences==
===PlayStation and DS===
[[File:Dragon Quest IV characters.png|right|thumb|The characters of ''Dragon Quest IV''|350px]]
*Both the [[Sony PlayStation]] and [[Nintendo DS]] versions have a ''Prologue'' chapter to introduce the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|hero]] before chapter one begins, as well as a 6th chapter with a bonus dungeon and alternate ending. There is also a new Tactics feature to manually control your party in chapter 5. The PlayStation version uses the graphics engine from ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'' and the [[Nintendo DS]] remake uses nearly the same style, with some minor compression to account for the handheld's screen size.

*An [[Pioneer Town]] was added, similar to [[The Haven]] in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''. It is located in place of the [[Desert Bazaar]] (which in the NES version served no purpose in Chapter 5). It is run by [[Hank Hoffman Jr.]] (who remains in the Inn at [[Mintos]] in the NES Version).

*A new dungeon was added in the "after-game", along with a new [[Zoom]] point within. Completing this dungeon a certain number of times grants access to get Psaro's equipment and causes a separate Psaro, a naked and gender-confused man, to appear in the Pioneer Town.

*In the NES Version, Hank Hoffman Jr. leaves the party after [[Alena]] and her companions join. In the PlayStation and DS Version, he leaves immediately upon entering Mintos.

*The first floor of the [[Imperial Pantry of Parthenia]] has a [[Thief's Key]] door blocking off the rest of the cave. To get it opened, [[Borya]] has to be recruited, which triggers a scene where Alena kicks the door down despite having the key. The NES version of the cave lacks the door and can be completed without recruiting Borya.
[[File:DQ4-DS-OVERWORLD-SCREENSHOT.jpg|250px|thumb|Exploring the world in the DS version of ''Dragon Quest IV'']]

*While still uncontrollable during combat, Healing Spells known by [[Healie]], [[Laurel]] and [[Orifiela]] can be used manually out of battle.

*The PS and DS, iOS, Android version include The [[Bag]] for unlimited item storage which can carry up to 99 for each item.

*In the PS and DS version, only [[Eliza]] and [[Float-o-copier]]s can use the [[Morph]] Spell, whereas in the NES Version, the Hero could also learn it.

*In the Nintendo Version, [[Marquis de Léon]] dies after his defeat, whereas in the remakes, he reverts to his human form and forgets his time as a monster.

*In the remakes, the player no longer loses [[Gold]] Coins after being defeated by Marquis de Léon in Chapter 4.

*Both of the remakes have the [[Lightning staff]] available much sooner in the [[Vault of Vrenor]], as opposed to later in [[Castle Nadiria]].

*[[Boomerang]]s were replaced by [[Hunter's Bow]]s.

*[[Thorn Whip]]s were replaced by [[Divine Dagger]]s.

*[[Morning star]]s were replaced by [[Holy lance]]s.

*Instead of the [[Liquid metal shield]] which sold for 4000 coins, the [[casino]] sells [[falcon sword]]s for 65,000 coins.

*There's only one Liquid metal shield in the Nintendo DS, iOS, Android game that you can get by trading in 52 mini medals to the medal king.

*[[Liquid metal armour]] now costs 35,000 Gold Coins, as opposed to the 15,000 in the NES Version.

*Mild profanity such as damnedest, hell, helliva is used in the DS, Android, iOS versions of the game.

*The DS uses 2 separate screens in the game.

*The Android and iOS uses touch screen features and the game uses a portrait screen setting instead of the landscape screen.

*Religious references that were removed from Dragon Warrior IV NES are now included in the game.

*Name changes to Weapons, Armor, items is made in the DS, iOS, Android version.

*The bonus Chapter 6 is now included in the DS, iOS, Android version including Psaro being a playable character and brand new dungeons.

*The gospel ring accessory is now included at the Pioneer town which is upgraded to a castle and is sold for 250,000 coins at the casino.

*The Big book of Beast is now included for the monster bestiary and the player will be rewarded 250,000 coins if they complete the list of monsters.

Liquid metal helm

CrosswalkX — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 21:56:05 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */

The '''Liquid metal helm''' (originally '''Helm of the Lone Metal Slime''') is a helmet in the [[Dragon Quest series|''Dragon Quest'']] series.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
'''NES version:''' In the Dragon Warrior IV NES version you can obtain one Metal Babble Helm by trading in 20 mini medals to the Medal King for one Metal Babble Helm. It can be worn by Male Hero, Female Hero, Cristo, Taloon, Ragnar.

'''Nintendo DS, Android, iOS version:''' The liquid metal helmet has a defence bonus of +50, and protects against [[confusion]], [[paralysis]], and [[sleep]]. It can be worn by Male Hero, Female Hero, Torneko, Ragnar, Kiryl, Meena. It is obtained from the casino for 100,000 in the immigrant town or from a [[Metal king slime]] either by winning it or by Torneko randomly stealing one. It's best to have the Sands of Time item and enter a battle with Metal king slime with another monster who won't run away. Also have everybody defend except for Torneko who will randomly steal a Liquid metal helm. If the Metal king slime runs away or Torneko accidentally kills one, use the Sands of Time to bring the Metal king slime back to the battle. It is much harder to buy the expensive Liquid metal helm as you'll have to gamble at the monster arena for many hours and it's much quicker to randomly steal one from Metal king slime.

===''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''===
The liquid metal helm has a defence bonus of +37, a style bonus of +45, and a three star rarity. It also decreases the chance of the wearer being effected by [[Snooze]], [[Whack]], and [[Fizzle]] by twenty percent. [[Warrior|Warriors]], [[Minstrel|Minstrels]], [[Gladiator|Gladiators]], [[Paladin|Paladins]], [[Armamentalist|Armamentalists]], and [[Luminary|Luminaries]] can equip it. It can be sold for 17,500 gold. Its in game description is "Priceless protection packed with the power of liquid metal slimes." It is created using the alchemy recipe of: [[Metal slime helm]] x1+ [[Orichalcum]] x1+ [[Slimedrop]] x6.

===''[[Dragon Quest Swords]]''===
The liquid metal helm is obtained from [[King Latem]] the first time he is defeated.

Meteorite bracer

CrosswalkX — Thu, 27 Sep 2018 16:36:13 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */ Updated information on Meteorite bracer.

[[File:DQVIII_Meteorite_Bracer.png|right|border|260px]]

The '''Meteorite Bracer''' (translated from Japanese as '''Shooting Star Bracelet''') is a recurring accessory in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. A band from beyond the stars and past the moon, it bolsters the wearer's [[agility]] an incredible amount.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest III]]''===
The bracer is hidden in the depths of the [[Isis]] palace and doubles agility. As half a character's agility is factored in to the calculation for their defense stat, the accessory indirectly increases durability as well in all versions of ''III''.
===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
The Meteorite Bracer is a prize in the [[Endor]] casino and requires 10,000 tokens to nab. It doubles agility as before, but no longer increases defense in the NES version despite agility having the same specifications in that version as in ''III''.

The NES version is called Meteorite Armband and it can be bought for 4000 coins at Endors casino, it doubles agility.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
The meteorite bracer doubles agility and is found in [[Gotha]] castle and may be purchased in the shop tiles on the bonus dungeon's [[T'n'T]] board for 6,500 gold.

===''[[Dragon Quest VI]]''===
The bracer is trickier to get in ''VI'', requiring the player to travel to the [[Lower World]]'s version of [[Amor]] once the [[Flying Bed]] is acquired. It doubles agility as usual.

===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
The meteorite bracer is a [casino]] prize in the original PSX version of the game, and costs 15,000 tokens in the "grand slum" version of the [[immigrant town]]. It doubles the agility of every character save for [[Kiefer]].
*Due to the town being reworked significantly in the 3DS version, the bracer is found in the [[Cathedral of Blight]] instead.

===''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''===
The Meteorite Bracer is an accessory that bestows +50 agility. [[Princess Minnie]] bestows it upon the party once they present her with 60 [[Mini medal]]s.

The [[Alchemy]] recipe for the bracer is: Agility ring + Agility ring + Orichalcum

===''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''===
The Meteorite Bracer is an accessory that bestows +100 agility and is given to the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IX)|hero]] by captain Max Meddlin' in exchange for 50 medals.

The alchemy recipe for the bracer is: Gold bar + Agility ring x2 + Lucida shard x3

Metal king slime

CrosswalkX — Thu, 27 Sep 2018 16:33:08 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */ Updated information on Metal king slime.

{{Monster Infobox
|title=Metal king slime
|image=[[Image:DQIV_Metal_King_Slime.png|280px]]
|caption=Art by [[Akira Toriyama]]
|kanji=メタルキング
|romanji=Metal king
|firstappear=''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''
}}
The '''Metal King Slime''' (formerly ''King Metal'', ''MetalKing'' / ''Metal King'' in later translations due to display constraints) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]'', it is a metallic version of the [[king slime]] that usually gives the greatest amount of experience of any monster in the games it appears in, with very few exceptions.

==Characteristics==
As the name would suggest, metal king slimes are king slimes of a metallic color. Their crowns are different in color to that of the king slimes' as well, bearing shades of purple or blue.

Like all other [[metal monsters]], metal king slimes have extremely high defense and speed, give an absurd amount of experience points when defeated, and often flee from battle instead of fighting. Their HP is much higher than that of most metal monsters, and they are also fairly competent when it comes to fighting, something that [[metal slime]]s and [[liquid metal slime]]s usually aren't.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
Metal king slimes share their first appearance with their variants, king slimes and [[king cureslime]]s. They do not appear until near the end of the game and are, in the original, NES release, the greatest source of experience in the game: they lose this position to [[platinum king jewel]]s in the remakes.

The player can have Torneko randomly steal a [[Liquid metal helm]]. The chances of stealing one is low and the Metal king slime often runs away from battle. To prevent this, the player must have the Sands of Time item in their possession and use it should Metal King Slime run away, the Sands of Time will bring the Metal King Slime back to the battle. The player can then have the other players defend while Torneko does his own move at random. Eventually he will steal the Liquid metal helm and will keep it regardless if Metal King Slime runs away or gets defeated. This is much better way as the player no longer has to buy the Liquid metal helm which is 100,000 coins.

Because their HP is so much higher than other metal monsters, it is usually recommended that [[Alena]] be used to fight them given her high critical hit ratio, which negates the monstrous defense of these metal globs.

CrosswalkX — Thu, 27 Sep 2018 16:24:18 GMT

CrosswalkX: /* Dragon Quest IV */ Updated information on the Falcon blade.

[[File:FalconBlade.png|right|border|230px]]

The '''Falcon Blade''' (also known as the '''Falcon Sword''') is a sword featured in multiple games in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. The sword is incredibly fast, allowing those wielding it to attack twice in a single turn. In later games, it can be upgraded into an [[Über falcon blade|über falcon blade]].

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest II]]''===
The falcon blade has an attack bonus of +7. It can be purchased from [[Tuhn]] for 25,000 gold and can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest II)|Hero]] and the [[Prince of Cannock]].

===''[[Dragon Quest III]]''===
The falcon sword can be bought for 25,000 gold in [[Rimuldar]] and sold for 18,750 gold. It has an attack bonus of +5. The [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]], [[merchant]]s, [[thief|thieves]], and [[sage]]s can equip it.

===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
The Falcon Blade has an attack bonus of +67 and can be won from the [[Endor]] Casino for 65,000 tokens. It can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]], [[Ragnar]], and [[Psaro]]. Psaro joins the party with a falcon blade equipped. Also if the Pioneer town gets upgraded to a castle. You can find the Falcon Blade on the west side of the Castle on the ground. You can attack the same enemy twice with it but won't carry over to a different monster. The Falcon Blade is expensive to get at Endors Casino as you have to bet at the monster arena for many hours before finally getting over 65,000 coins.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
The falcon blade has an attack bonus of +67 and each strike hits for 75%, totaling up to 150%. It can be obtained by trading 35 [[mini medal]]s to King Dominucus. It can also be found on the [[Nadiria]] and [[Stark Raving Mad T'n'T board]]s.

===''[[Dragon Quest VI]]''===
{{Stub}}
===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
The falcon blade has the now standard attack bonus of +67, but only deals 50% damage per strike, and an appearance bonus of +32. It can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VII)|Hero]], [[Melvin]], and [[Aira]].

===''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''===
The falcon blade has an attack bonus of +37 and returns to 75% per hit. It can be obtained from the [[Baccarat]] Casino for 10,000 tokens and can be equipped by [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]], [[Angelo]], and [[Jessica]] provided she can equip swords. It can be upgraded using the [[Krak Pot|Alchemy Pot]] with a [[meteorite bracer]] into an [[Über falcon blade]].

It can also be sold for 5,000 [[Gold]] Coins.

[[Image:Liquid_Metal_Shield.png|right|border|250px]]
The '''Liquid metal shield''' (originally '''Shield of the Lone Metal Slime''') is a rather rare shield in the [[Dragon Quest (series)| series]], having been supplanted by the [[Metal king shield]] in ''[[Dragon Quest V|V]]''.

Gold

CrosswalkX — Thu, 27 Sep 2018 15:47:14 GMT

CrosswalkX: Updated information on easy money for Dragon Quest I, II, IV, and VI.

[[File:InomataTorneko.png|thumb|right|275px|Torneko dropping some gold.]]
'''Gold''' or '''gold coins''' (with the currency symbol of '''G''') is the standard unit of exchange used in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' games. Gold is needed to purchase weapons, armor, items, getting Casino tokens, taking an item out of the vault, as well as to stay at most [[Inn|inns]]. You can get gold from defeating monsters as well as obtaining it from treasure chests or selling your old equipment and unused items.

Gold is also subtracted if the player dies in battle in order to be resurrected (though the main character will still be resurrected even if there's no gold).

The value of gold coins is not consistent across ''Dragon Quest'' titles and a particular item frequently costs more or less depending on the game. That said, it's interesting to note that gold coins can be considered a sort of auxiliary world currency, as they are accepted everywhere throughout a particular game's world (though even in that world one item may have a differing value, possibly suggesting a sort of exchange rate.)

==Protecting gold==
Starting with ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', gold can be stored within [[vault]]s, though the minimum amount that can be deposited is 1,000 coins. Gold that is stored in the vault will not be taken if the main character(s) is killed. Remakes of ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' & ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'' also had vaults implemented.

Starting with ''[[Dragon Quest VI]]'', vaults were replaced with a [[bank]] which unlike the former, stored only gold rather than with equipment.

**[[Ladja]] during the end of Generation I.
