The '''recovery ring''' is an accessory that first appeared in 1996 {{Super Famicom}} remake of {{Dragon Quest III}}. It is a miraculous little bauble that heals the wearer was they walk about, easing the strain of the party's healer.
 
==Localization history==
The Japanese name いのちのゆびわ (ring of life) was first localized in English as the recovery ring in 2005 for the international release of {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. It was retained for the 2008 localization of {{Dragon Quest IV}} but was replaced with the [[life ring]] term in the 2010 localization of {{Dragon Quest IX}}, and then reinstated in 2014 with the Android/iOS localization of {{Dragon Quest III}}. Beginning with the 2016 localization of {{Dragon Quest VII}} the recovery name has been retired outside of reuse in iterations of ''Dragon Quest III''.

The recovery ring is an accessory that was added in the 1996 {{Super Famicom}} remake. It has a {{Resilience}} boost of +25, restores the wearer's {{HP}} while walking, and can be equipped by all vocations. It's found in a {{chest}} at the [[Inn]] of [[Rimuldar]].
*In the {{Super Famicom}} and {{Game Boy Color}} versions, another life ring can be received as a reward at the fourth [[Treasures n' Trapdoors]] track in [[Kol]]. Another life ring can be found at the fifth [[Treasures n' Trapdoors]] track in [[Jipang]] while examining a floor tile. However, like all accessories that boost the wearer's resilience, the extra {{Resilience}} is not calculated to the wearer's max {{HP}} when leveling up.
