The '''Strength ring''' is a recurring accessory in the {{DQSeries}} that first appeared in the {{Super Famicom}} remake of {{Dragon Quest III}}. It gives a small boost to the wearer's attack power.

The ring consists of a gold spiked band with a red gem at its center, held in place with a gold loop. It also has a raised blue or purple chain design around the ring's loop.

The Strength ring is an accessory that increases {{Attack}} by 7 and changes the wearer's personality to [[Meathead]] temporarily.
