==Characteristics==
The item art for the full plate armor consists of a breastplate with gold filigree details, pauldrons, and attached faulds, all made out of forged steel plates. In character art, the full plate armour often includes cuisses (thigh armour), gauntlets, boots, and a helmet. It is often the standard armour worn by knights and as such, can typically only be equipped by the most physically powerful characters. It has appeared in every main entry in the series so far.
In ''Dragon Quest IX'', the armour's design has been altered to resemble a reinforced set of [[iron armour]]; studs have been added to several sections, additional straps have been included, and '''L''' shaped emblems have been applied to the pauldrons.
