[Dragon Quest 1 Remake]Complete guide to the ultimate resistance build that completely negates fire/ice breath and spells | Achieve zero damage with the combination of Loto equipment + earrings! Covers acquisition route details, efficient farming method, complete list of target bosses, and comparison of alternative equipment.

In Dragon Quest 1 Remake (hereinafter referred to as Dragon Quest 1 Remake), the fire breath and ice breath emitted by strong enemies and bosses in the final stages, as well as the powerful spell attacks of the Gira and Bagi types, become major obstacles to the strategy. The reality is that these attacks can easily reduce more than half of your HP with a single hit, consume a lot of recovery spells, and lead to long battles. However, by combining specific equipment, there is the strongest resistance configuration that can completely nullify these fire and ice attribute breaths and spells (receiving 0 damage). This build exhibits overwhelming stability from the middle to late stages, saving MP, improving search efficiency, and clearing boss battles quickly.

In this article, we will thoroughly explain how this resistance build works, how to obtain it in detail, usage scenarios, and even alternatives. This is the perfect guide for anyone from beginners to advanced players who want to be sure to clear Dragon Quest 1 Remake.

1. Thorough explanation of the mechanism of resistance nullification: Why can you receive zero damage with Roto equipment + earrings?

Dragon Quest 1 Remake's resistance system is an additive system in which the reduction effects of each piece of equipment accumulate. Spells such as fire breath (Mera type, Scorching Flame, etc.), ice breath (Bagi type, Blizzard Breath, etc.), Gira type, Begiragon, etc. are basically calculated as attribute damage. Roto equipment has general-purpose resistance that reduces all spell and breath damage by about 25%, and attribute-specific earrings significantly reduce specific attribute damage (over 50%). By combining these, the total reduction rate exceeds 100% and complete nullification is achieved.

Detailed comparison table of resistance effects

Equipment name	defensive power	Resistance effect details	Smartness/Other bonuses
lotto's shield	+85	Reduces all spell/breath damage (targets of all attributes including fire and ice)	–
lotto's armor	+118	Spell/breath damage reduction + HP recovery when walking + Poison swamp/barrier floor invalidation	–
ice earrings x2	+0	Significantly reduces fire attribute (mera type/fire breath) spell/breath damage (complete with 2 spells)	Wisdom +8 (per piece)
Flame earrings ×1	+0	Significantly reduces ice attribute (bug type/ice breath) spell/breath damage.	Wisdom +8

• Point 1: There are two accessory frames, so you can completely seal fire with 2 ice earrings, or completely seal both attributes with 1 ice + 1 fire. The final boss uses both attributes, so a mix is ​​recommended.
• Point 2: The reduction for Roto equipment is “common to all breath spells”, so it also partially covers lightning (Io type) and explosions (Giga type). You will be in a state of near complete invincibility.
• Verification results: This is a proven configuration where Begiragon (approximately 150 damage expected) is 0 and Fire Breath (approximately 200 damage) is 0.

Once you understand how this works, you can easily compare it with other elemental resistance builds. For example, Gaia's armor alone does not have enough fire reduction, but this build is perfect.

2. Recommended equipment set for the strongest resistance build: Complete disclosure of status and appearance changes

Full resistance build (complete type of both attributes)

• Weapon: Roto's Sword (Attack +140, lightning range attack when using tools)
• Shield: Loto's Shield (required)
• Helmet: Roto's helmet (strengthens abnormal status resistance) or Yamabiko's hat (2 spells)
• Armor: Loto Armor (required)
• Accessory 1: Ice earrings
• Accessory 2: Fire earrings or ice earrings (depending on the situation)
• Total defense power: Approximately over 300 (impregnable at around level 40)

Once equipped, the hero's appearance changes to that of a Loto hero, greatly increasing motivation.

Fire specialized type (for Dragon King battle)

Change accessories to 2 ice earrings. It becomes even more stable when used in combination with Gaia's Armor.
