DQVIII Flowing Dress.png

The Flowing dress (formerly water flying clothes & water robe) is a powerful robe commonly used by spellcasters in the Dragon Quest series. It offers amazing protection against fire and ice attacks. Despite its name, it can be equipped by both male and female characters in most cases.

Appearances

Dragon Quest II

The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +35 in the original, and +65 in all other versions. It protects against fire attacks by 50% and damage caused by swamps and magma tiles. It can be worn by all three characters. The robe is obtained by giving the Subtle Shuttle and Celestial Skein to Don Calico in Slewse. The wizened weaver will not finish his work until the player saves their game and begins again.

In the original version, multiple copies of the dress can be obtained by gathering the skein and shuttle again. This will only work once, however. Additionally, because Don Calico wove it specifically for her, the dress cannot be received if the Princess of Moonbrooke's inventory is full.

Dragon Quest III

The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +50 (+40 in the original) and can be worn by Magi, as well as Sages in all remake versions of the game. It reduces spell and breath damage by 1/3rd in all versions, and can be purchased in Kol for 12,500 gold and sold for 9,375.

Dragon Quest IV

The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +43 and reduces frizz, sizz, bang, and fire and ice breath damage by 1/3rd. It can be worn by Borya, Maya & Meena. Orifiela has this among her equipment. It can be purchased for 15,000 gold and sold for 11,250. If appraised by Torneko, he mentions that it goes all the way back to the time of the faeries. He also states that it is spun on a holy loom with threads of rain and dew, referencing its method of acquisition in Dragon Quest II.

Dragon Quest V

The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +55, and protects against frizz, sizz, and fire breath by 25. It can be bought in Faerie Lea for 14,800 gold and sold for 11,100 gold. Bianca, Nera, Debora, and the Hero's daughter can equip it, along with many of the monster allies.
