==Auroral armour ({{tt|ひかりのよろい|Hikari no yoroi}} ''Armor of Light'')==
==={{DQ3}}===
==={{DQ3}}===

==Ortega's helmet==
==Ortega's helmet ({{tt|オルテガのかぶと|Orutega no kabuto}})==
==={{DQ3}}===
==={{DQ3}}===
The helmet is only available in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SF]] version and subsequent remakes, and originally belonged to [[Ortega]]. It is found in the village of [[Mur]]. The helmet will add +30 defence, but offer no protection against debilitating magic except in the [[Game Boy|GBC]] version, where it will reduce the chance of being afflicted by [[snooze]], [[dazzle]], and [[sap]] by 50%. This aspect was removed in the subsequent mobile phone release due to being a port of the SNES version, but most players will not notice and keep it equipped for sentimental reasons.

==={{DQ3}}===

==Sword of Kings==
==Sword of Kings ({{tt|おうじゃのけん|ōja no ken}})==
==={{DQ3}}===
==={{DQ3}}===
Legendary since long before the events of ''Dragon Quest III'', it is said that it took [[Zoma]] three years to sunder the blade in twain. Because of this, the player must first locate a piece of [[Orichalcum]] and a smith of godly skill in order to restore the weapon. Once reforged, the Sword of Kings will boost the hero's attack by +120, and will deafen a group of enemies with an earth-shaking [[Kaswoosh|thunderclap]] when used as an item in battle.

==Trivia==
*The iconography of Erdrick bears a distinct resemblance to [[Ramia]], appearing on the sword, shield, and armor of legend. Even the hero's emblem bears Ramia's visage, likely owning to her significance in ''III's'' chain of events.
*The overworld sprite of [[Ortega]] in the SNES version shows him wearing a black helmet with a single strip of metal going vertically along the cranium, rather than the blue emblemized helmet seen in later sets of the Armor of Erdrick. This could imply that the helmet was modified after joining with the legendary gear.
