The Prayer ring is a normal item in the original version of the game, but classified as an accessory that increases {{Defence}} by 5 in the various remakes, and restores 20~30 {{MP}} when used. In the {{NES}} version of {{IV}} the ring will '''always break''' when used in battle. Prayer rings can be dropped by [[Hell raiser]]s and [[Pickeerer]]s. The Prayer ring in the {{DS}}, and [[Cell phone]] remake can be bought at [[Endor]]'s casino for 500 Casino Tokens and it can be sold for 2,250 [[gold]] coins.

The ring will restore 20~30 {{MP}}, but is eclipsed by the more potent [[Elfin elixir]]. One can be found at [[Mt. Batten Pass]] and another at [[Gotha]] during Generation 3, but requires the [[Ultimate Key]] to reach it. Prayer rings can also be dropped by [[Goodybag]]s, [[Necromancer]]s, and [[Samigina]]s.

This is the first game in which the ring is classified as an accessory, owing to the vast increase of equippable ornaments. It has a {{Defence}} bonus of +5, a {{Style}} bonus of +22, and can be worn by [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Terry]], and the {{Hero 6}}. It restores 20~30 {{MP}} when used. Prayer rings can be purchased at the [[casino]]s at [[Turnscote]] and [[Greedmore Valley]] for 5,000 tokens each. They can be dropped by [[Hirsute hexer]]s.

The Prayer ring has a {{Defence}} bonus of +5, a {{Style}} bonus of +3, and can be equipped by the {{Hero 7}}, [[Maribel]], [[Ruff]], [[Sir Mervyn]], and [[Aishe]]. When used it will restore 20~30 {{MP}} and, in the {{3DS}} remake at least, its chance to break has been reduced to 12.5% ({{fraction|1|8}}). In the original [[Sony PlayStation]] version, prayer rings can be purchased at the Cathedral evolution of the [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]] for 3,000 [[gold]] coins. They can be won as a prize from the Lucky Panel at the [[Casino]] starting from [[Pilgrim's Rest]] in the present and also dropped by [[Trickstar]]s.

The Prayer ring once again has a {{Defence}} bonus of +5, can be equipped by all characters, and restores 20~30 {{MP}} when used. They can be purchased from the item peddler in [[Argonia]] for 9,000 [[gold]] coins, but he disappears after [[Dhoulmagus]] has been defeated, and they can be sold for 1,500 [[gold]] coins. At [[Baccarat]]'s [[Casino]], prayer rings can be purchased for 1,000 tokens each. They can be dropped rarely by [[Goodybag]]s and [[High roller]]s. A ring can be found in a [[treasure chest]] on the world map shortly after leaving the [[Desert Chapel]], while another can be found in the center of the continent close to [[Argonia]]. One can be found in the barrels at the [[Black Citadel]].
 
Prayer rings can be created in the [[Alchemy Pot]] and they can be mixed extensively in different recipes with the use of [[alchemy]]:

In this game, the Prayer ring will completely restore the wearer's {{HP}} or {{MP}} when they reach max [[Tension]], determined at random, and it does not break when the effect occurs. It can be useful as there are limited means to restoring {{HP}} and {{MP}} during battles, especially for characters who are able to build Tension easily like [[Alena]]. The quick recipe for the Prayer ring can be received from [[Medal King|King Flaminio]] in exchange for 2 [[Mini medal]]s on the Stonecloud, while the classic and luxury recipes can be dropped rarely by [[Golem]]s.

The Prayer ring slowly regenerates the wearer's {{MP}} over time. Once it has been fully upgraded, it will also grant a +11 bonus to the wearer's max {{MP}}. The ring can be obtained by exchanging 20 [[Mini medal]]s once or dropped by [[Cloud surfer]]s.

The Prayer ring is Treasure No. 233 in the Armour category. Its base value is 500,000 gold.

Flavor text A much-revered ring that answers its wearer's prayers.[9]

In this game, the Prayer ring will completely restore the wearer's HP or MP when they reach max Tension, determined at random, and it does not break when the effect occurs. It can be useful as there are limited means to restoring HP and MP during battles, especially for characters who are able to build Tension easily like Alena. The quick recipe for the Prayer ring can be received from King Flaminio in exchange for 2 Mini medals on the Stonecloud, while the classic and luxury recipes can be dropped rarely by Golems.

Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twin Kings and the Prophecy's End[edit]

The Prayer ring slowly regenerates the wearer's MP over time. Once it has been fully upgraded, it will also grant a +11 bonus to the wearer's max MP. The ring can be obtained by exchanging 20 Mini medals once or dropped by Cloud surfers.

Dragon Quest Treasures[edit]

The Prayer ring is Treasure No. 233 in the Armour category. Its base value is 500,000 gold.
