===Zenithian Armour===
The armour is likely the first piece to be acquired by players. It is found in the cave north of the [[Medal King's Palace]]. In the original [[NES]] version it reduces breath attacks and spell damage by {{fraction|1|3}}, while in the remakes it raises resistance to [[Whack|instant death]] while reducing spell damage (save for [[zap]]) by {{fraction|1|3}}. In all versions it has a defence value of +70.

[[Image:DQIV_Zenithian_Helm.png|right|thumb|The [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]] wearing the Zenithian Helm.|200px]]
The helm is found in [[Canalot]], in its king's possession. He holds a competition stipulating that anyone who can make him laugh will win the Helm. The party travels to [[Laissez Fayre]] to recruit comedian [[Tom Foolery]] to the cause, expecting him to unleash one of his funniest jokes on the king; instead, he delivers an impassioned speech about evil on the rise and then necessity of the Chosen to defeat it. The king is convinced and gives up the Helm. It increases the Hero's defence by 30 in all versions, and provides a high resistance to [[fuddle]], [[snooze]], and paralysis in the remakes. In the original, is grants no such protection.

===Zenithian Shield===
===Zenithian Shield===
On a tip from a poet in Canalot, the party heads to [[Burland]], only to find that the king gave it away to the queen of [[Femiscyra]] (a beautiful woman) many years ago. They travel to a small kingdom east of Burland, however, and after being accused of robbery, they are tasked with finding the real criminal if they want to clear their names. They successfully track down the real robber, clear their names, and are rewarded with the shield for their hard work. The shield increases the Hero's defence by 55 and casts bounce when used as an item in battle. In the remakes, it reduces the power of breath attacks by 30 points.

The sword was already located by [[Pankraz]] sometime before the start of the game. He left it in a cache in the [[Whealbrook Adit]], which his [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|son]] later recovered. The sword's power has not changed, and it will cast [[Disruptive Wave]] when used as an item.

===Sword of Ramias===
===Sword of Ramias===
The sword is found in Everfrost, but it has long since rusted. To restore it to its former glory, the party must enlist the help of Welda in Turnscote. When rusted the sword adds +63 to the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)|Hero's]] attack stat and +12 to his style, and +130 and +32 after Welda restores it. The sword can be further improved by visiting the Fashion Forge beneath the waves, which can raise the strength and style to +135 and +52 after the first reforging, and +145 and +70 after the final improvement. After being restored, the sword will deal bonus [[Zap]] damage after each attack, totaling to 50% of the damage deal before magic resistance is applied.
