The '''magic shield''' is a recurring shield in the {{DQSeries}}. It is designed to guard against harmful magic and elemental damage, hence the whimsical design.

==Localization history==
In Japanese, there are actually two separate but similar items which the localized English item of "magic Shield" describes:

*The first is マジックシールド ''majikku shīrudo'' (i.e. magic Shield), which first appeared in [[Dragon Quest V]] and has so far only appeared in that game and its remakes.

*The second is まほうのたて ''mahō no tate'' (Japanese for "magic Shield"), which first appeared in [[Dragon Quest VI]] before showing up in all main series installments that followed (as well as the remakes of [[Dragon Quest III]]), as well as some spin-offs.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
Appearing only in the remakes, the magic shield can be equipped by all vocations save for the [[Martial Artist]]. It boosts {{Defence}} by +25, and cuts '''all''' magical damage by 25%. It can be purchased from [[Baharata]], [[Mur]], and [[Persistence]] for 2,000 gold and sold for 1,500 gold. It is also the most protective shield that a [[Mage]] can equip.
