Appearances
Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen
The Happy hat has a Defence bonus of +15 and restores 1 MP for every 4 steps. It can be worn by Borya, Kiryl, Maya, and Meena. In the original NES version, one can be received as a reward for turning in 4 mini medals to the Medal King, while in all remake versions of the game, it is a reward for turning in 43 medals. It also has a 1⁄128 chance of being dropped by Liquid metal slimes. The hat can be sold for a measly 11 gold coins, but it is not recommended to do so.
Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride
The Happy hat has a Defence bonus of +35 and restores 1 MP per step. It can be equipped by Bianca, NeraMadchen, Sancho, and several monster companions. The hat is found in Gotha Castle behind a door that is locked with the Ultimate Key. It can be sold for 6,750 gold coins, but it is not recommended to do so since there is only one in the entire game.
Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation
The Happy hat restores 1 MP per 8 steps on the world map and 16 in dungeons, towns, castles, etc. It has a Defence bonus of +35, but reduces the wearer's Style by 17. It can only be equipped by Milly, Ashlynn, Nevan, and some of the slime companions. The hat is received as a prize for winning Level 8 of the Best Dressed contest at Château de Sass. It can also be dropped by Liquid metal slimes at a rate of 1⁄256, but having a party of Thieves at rank 8 raises the rate to 1⁄32.
Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past
The Happy hat has a Defence bonus of +37, but once again reduces the wearer's Style by 17. It recovers 1 MP for every 4 steps, which is slightly inferior to the Goddess ring (which recovers 1 MP for every 2 steps). It can be worn by the Hero, Maribel, Ruff, and Sir Mervyn. It is not sold in any shops, but it can be won from the Lucky Panel at Buccanham's Casino. It can also be dropped by Platinum king jewels at a 1⁄128 rate, but a party of mastered Thieves will raise this to 1⁄16. They can be sold for 10,000 gold coins, but it is not recommended to do so.
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
The Happy hat has a Defence bonus of +31. It can only be worn by Jessica and Angelo. It can be obtained from Dodgy Dave in Pickham in exchange for the Sandstorm spear or made in the Alchemy Pot with the Feathered cap and Elevating shoes. The hat can be sold for 10,000 gold coins, but as always, it is not recommended to do so.
