'''Insulatle''' is a recurring spell in the {{DQSeries}}.
 
It decreases the damage dealt by [[breath attack]]s by a substantial amount in all appearances, with the exact percentage varying between titles. It is the -party-wide counterpart to [[Insulate]], covering all allies with a curtain of light. Contrary to what the name implies, Insulatle reduces the damage of all breath attacks and not just fire and ice.
