Cursed Equipment, as its name implies, are weapons or armor pieces that are cursed and will inflict misfortune on those who equip them. Some items that are cursed will remain permanently equipped until the player must visits a Church and gets it removed. What curse befalls the player varies from equipment to equipment. Cursed Equipment are obvious to spot, be it their name, appearance, or their ominous item description. Sometimes Cursed Equipment are one of, if the most powerful items in the game, making them high-risk, high-reward.
Later installments, starting with Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King, introduced the Saint's ashes, an item that rids the curse off the item, turning them into more powerful and useful equipment.
