Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen[edit]
The goddess ring was added in the 2001 PSX remake. It increases Wisdom by 33, and restores MP while walking. It can be equipped by Hero, Alena, Kiryl, Maya and Meena. It is of particular interest for the Hero, as unlike Kiryl, Maya and Meena he can't equip the Happy Hat, and unlike Alena, he can benefit from the increased Wisdom and MP recovery.
It can be found in Baron's Folly.
