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.

The liquid metal shield can be equipped by all four Luminaries and has a defense bonus of +108. It is won as a prize from the [[tombola]] booth that opens up next to the nun at [[Cloudsgate Citadel]] after you defeat [[Xenlon]] and wish for it. It is theoretically possible to win four or more, though it would take a very long time, as the usual 10-roll gets you 10 green balls ([[Magic Water]]s). Fortunately, gold farming at the island west of [[Moonahan]] is very easy and quick, and tickets can be bought at Mersea at this point in the game for 777 gold (or 621 with a [[Loyalty Card]]).
