The '''heavy armour''' is a recurring suit of armour in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series that first made its appearance in [[Dragon Quest VI]]. It is an enormously large set of unpolished, beaten metal plates that protects the wearer against fire and ice damage due to the thickness of the material used. As a consequence, the armour lives up to its name and can only be equipped by the largest and strongest characters—another result is that the suit is astoundingly uncool looking and will drop the style and charm of anyone who wears it by a considerable degree.
