Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation/Item collection: Part 3

Chateau de Sass




Like with Turnscote, Weaver's Peak, and Mt. Snowhere, you do not need to go here immediately; but you will need to at some point. Besides that, you will also find your 70th Mini Medal here; which means you can now get the Medal King Helm (75% resistance to death and status spells)! As for the "Best-Dressed Contest", it is a fashion contest with prizes for all eight levels of competition. They are as follows:

Most of them are not very useful, but you MUST clear the Level 3 contest in order to obtain a mandatory plot item. And the Sage's Stone is every bit as useful as it sounds; in fact, it is almost mandatory for beating the final boss without high levels or the Hero job class.

However, going past Level 4 is not feasible yet. This is because there are hidden point bonuses that come with certain combinations of equipment; and unfortunately, the later levels rely heavily on bonuses that can only come from end-game weapons and armor. For now, the only high-end point bonuses you can get are:

'''50+ from Bunny Suit + Silver Platter + Bunny Ears + Fishnet Stockings 40+ from Miracle Sword + Sacred Armour 35+ from Lunar Fan + Dancer's Costume'''

Fortunately, you can also equip the Turnscote Pendant for an incredibly high +40 boost in Style; combine that with the +133 total boost from the Miracle Sword + Sacred Armour, and that should be more than enough for Carver or Rex to sweep Levels 1-3. And if you kept all of the Bunny equipment, you can sweep Level 4 with Milly as well.

If you haven't been following the guide, and do not have the Miracle Sword or Sacred Armour, you can still win. The Platinum Shield, Platinum Mail, Helm of Sebath, and Turnscote Pendant are all high Style items that are impossible to lose and easy to acquire, so just refer to the Item collection: Part 2, Helm of Sebath (VS. Man-at-Arms), and Sword of Ramias pages to find all those.

Well of Somnia (Real World)




This is simply an optional excursion for the 71th Mini Medal and a powerful shield. They are both helpful, and the enemies are simple enough; but the trip is not strictly necessary. Assuming you do take it, your party should look something like this by the time you're done:

Extra Seed of Magic (Cole's Grave)




As the name of the section implies, this is the site of Cole's death. There is no hope of closure for him and his family now; but you can still use the Seed of Magic in forging a future for his daughter. Use it on Rex if you are following the guide's suggestions.

Whatever you decide, this is the end of the Item Collection segments; it's now finally time to tackle the Seabed Shrine. Note that you may wish to use Amos instead of Rex if Rex hasn't earned Zap yet.
