The Meteorite Bracer is an accessory that doubles the wearer's agility.
The meteorite bracer doubles the wearer's {{Agility}} and can be equipped by all vocations. As half a character's {{Agility}} is factored in to the calculation for their {{Defence}} stat, the accessory indirectly increases durability as well in all versions of {{III}}. It can be found by searching the enclosure of [[Isis]]'s palace.
===[[Dragon Quest VI]]===
*More bracers can be found in the {{Super Famicom}} and {{Game Boy Color}} versions of the game: the second one can be found in the well at [[Jipang]] after wishing for the 5th [[Treasures 'n' Trapdoors]] track and the third can be found in a pot on the track itself. In the {{Game Boy Color}} version, a fourth bracelet can also be found in the [[Ice Cave]].
===[[Dragon Quest VII]]===
===[[Dragon Quest VIII]]===
The Meteorite Bracer is an accessory that bestows +50 agility.


===[[Dragon Quest IX]]===
==={{DQ3HD}}===
The Meteorite Bracer is an accessory that bestows +100 agility.

Note that due to system changes to the agility stat equipping the bracer will no longer increase a character's defence.

The meteorite bracer is a prize in the [[Endor]] [[casino]] and requires 10,000 [[token]]s (only 4,000 in the original {{NES}} version) to nab. Once again, it can be equipped by all characters. It doubles {{Agility}} as before, but no longer increases {{Defence}} in the {{NES}} version, despite {{Agility}} having the same specifications in that version as in {{III}}.

The meteorite bracer doubles the wearer's {{Agility}} and can be found in [[Gotha]] Castle. More can be purchased in the shop tiles on the [[bonus dungeon]]'s [[T'n'T]] board for 6,500 {{Gold}}. It can be equipped by all characters and all monster companions.
 
==={{DQ6}}===
{{Descriptions

}}
The meteorite bracer is trickier to get in {{VI}}, requiring the {{Hero 6}} and {{Party 6}} to travel to the [[Lower World]]'s version of [[Amor]] once the [[Flying Bed]] is acquired. Another one is available via completing the suite dreams sidequest. It can be equipped by all characters and doubles the wearer's {{Agility}} as usual, as well as having a +15 bonus to {{Style}}.
 
==={{DQ7}}===
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 [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]]. It doubles the {{Agility}} of every character save for [[Kiefer]] and has a {{Style}} bonus of +5.
*The bracer can still be purchased as a casino prize, but due to the heavy reworking of the town in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, the casino at The Haven will not open until the player has sent the 15th resident there and it reaches its final evolution. This becomes available as soon as the [[Cathedral of Blight]] can be visited in the storyline.

The meteorite bracer now only grants a +50 bonus to the wearer's {{Agility}} and can be equipped by all characters. Princess [[Minnie]] will bestow one to the {{Party 8}} once they present her with 60 [[mini medal]]s, but more can be made using the [[Alchemy Pot]]. Another bracer can be found in [[Memories Lane]] in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version. The bracer can also be used to create an [[Über falcon blade]].
