The Platinum mail is a recurring suit of armour in the Dragon Quest series. It is a beautiful suit of silver and gold armour that offers its wearer protection from magic damage, and is often the direct upgrade to the Magic armor.
Appearances
Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation
This armor may be won in either the Port Haven or Turnscote casinos, and can be found in Howcastle behind a door that requires the Magic key. It provides +66 defense, +51 style, and negates 15 points of magical damage from all non-Zap spells. It can be worn by the Hero, Terry, Carver, Lizzie, Amos, and Goowain.
- The Dragon shield is also available in the aforementioned casinos, and can be equipped along with the platinum mail by most characters. This makes the battle with Murdaw significantly easier and is a popular strategy for low-level playthroughs.
Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past
The platinum mail has a defence bonus of +63, a style bonus of +51, and reduces damage from all non-Zap spells by 20. It can be equipped by the Hero and Aishe and is acquired if a male character wins the Best Dressed Contest for the Excellence Grading Organisation in El Ciclo. It can be sold for 4,750 gold.
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
The platinum mail has a defence bonus of +72 and magical protection has returned to 15 points. Only the Hero and Angelo can wear it. It can be made in the Alchemy Pot or dropped by Hell's gatekeepers in the PS2 version. It can be sold for 4,900 gold.
Recipe: Zombie mail + Saint's ashes
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies
The platinum mail in this game is the final upgrade of the silver mail and continues to offer amazing protection against magic damage.
