This blue lined armor is so powerful that it will make Gil defend himself against the evil demon Druaga. It is also capable of absorbing one spell per floor without the shield and/or sword drawn. However, it will deplete Gil's energy, and cannot defeat enemies that take more than one hits (including ) as attempting to attack them after the spell was absorbed by it will kill Gil instantly even with his sword drawn. If you haven't collected the Balance, this will become the Evil Armor which will decrease your defense, meaning the treasure should be avoided. You can also lose it if you are zapped to a lower floor.
AC
Destroy 4 walls (walls destroyed by , , and do not count).
