Most equipment can be bought, but some can only be found or dropped by enemies. Some equipment can cast spells (at no MP cost) by using it as an item in battle. This item use is limited: usually only classes that can equip an item can use it from the item menu (with some exceptions like the Staff of Thunder and Shield of Strength). Cursed items have a negative impact on your party and cannot be removed except by visiting a healer in town or using the Curse Off spell.
- Item locations in blue refer to a chest.
- Item locations in red refer to a monster dropping it.
NES
- Class abbreviations
- Hr = Hero
- Sr = Soldier/Warrior
- Mr = Merchant/Dealer
- Gf = Goof-off/Jester
- Pg = Pilgrim/Cleric
- Sa = Sage
- Wz = Wizard/Mage
- Fi = Fighter
All equipment parts can be sold for 75% of their original price (rounded down). Therefore, if an item cannot be purchased, its selling price divided by 0,75 is listed, instead.
Armor
Armor offers stronger protection than shields or helmets, but at a higher price. No armor can be used as an item, but some pieces offer protection against certain types of attacks automatically (if they're worn, anyway).

Shields
Shields provide a fair amount of protection at a reasonable cost, especially for Clerics and Sages, who cannot use the strongest armor.

Helms
Like Shields, Helms provide effective defense at a relatively low cost. There is a special Helm only for the Hero, called Ortega's Helm.
