Appearances
Dragon Quest VII
Appearing in the 3DS remake, the shield increases defense by +55, style by +17, and cuts all elemental damage (save zap) by 30. Maribel and Aishe can equip it as long as they are at least level 35, giving them an excellent -60 elemental combo when used with the Princess Robe. It can be acquired from the first completion of the The Depths of Darkness DLC Tablet.
Dragon Quest VIII
The goddess shield has a defense bonus of +55, and cuts elemental damage in half. It can only be equipped by Jessica and Angelo in the original version, as well as Red in the 3DS port.
