The '''Magic armour''' is a recurring suit of armour in the {{DQSeries}}. As its name suggests, it is designed to guard the wearer against magical onslaughts.

 

 

Starting with {{IX}}, the breastplate's colour was changed to a dark shade of purple. In {{X}}, the armour is now divided into torso and leg pieces, with the fauld also coloured purple, as well. In some games such as ''X Offline'' and {{Walk}}, the torso armour is worn with a pair of gauntlets.
