The '''flame shield''' is a recurring shield in the ''Dragon Quest'' series which first appeared in [[Dragon Quest V]]. In its first three appearances in the series, it offered protection against ice attacks, but after ''VIII'' it was changed to offer protection against fire attacks.

==={{DQ5}}===

The flame shield has a defence bonus of +40, and reduces damage from ice spells and skills by 15. It may be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)]], [[Parry]], and [[Tuppence]]. It is sold for 17,000 in [[Faerie Lea]] and [[Precaria]].

==={{DQ6}}===

The flame shield retains it's defence bonus of +40, and now reduces ice damage by 20. It may be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)]], [[Carver]], [[Terry]], [[Amos]], and [[Lizzie]]. It is sold in [[Felonia]] for 17,000.

==={{DQ7}}===

The flame shield increases defence by +36, style by 17, and cuts ice damage by 25. It is sold for 17,000 in the [[Dwarf's Den]], and can be equipped by the {{Hero 7}} and [[Aishe]].

==={{DQ8}}===

The flame shield offers a defense bonus of +34, reduces fire damage by 10, and casts a form of [[Insulatle]] that only cuts flames when used as an item in battle. Why the sudden change in parameters is unknown, possibly to highlight the existence of the [[Ice shield]].

It can be equipped by [[Yangus]] and [[Jessica]] in all versions as well as by [[Morrie]] in the 3DS port, and is sold in both [[Empycchu]]s for 7,100.
