Appearances
Dragon Quest II
The hat reduces MP consumption in battle by 25% (rounded up) and provides Defense of +4 (+8 in the remakes). They are dropped by Tyrannodactyl, Pazuzu, and Hargon with a rate of 1/128, and 1/16 times by Liquid Metal Slimes in the remakes. Fortunately, the GBC and Phone Version has one obtainable in a chest at the Cave to Rendarak. It is also the only helmet equip-able by the Princess of Moonbrooke
Dragon Quest III
The hat reduces MP consumption by 25% +1 as before, and provides Defense of +8. They are dropped by Firn fiend with a rate of 1/128, and may be equipped by priests, mages, and sages. The MP reduction rate can be combined with the Glombolero for extra-economic casting.
