Final FantasyEdit
- "Ring that guards against instant death."
- —Description
The Protect Ring is an armlet that protects against Instant KO, has +8 Absorb, and -1% Evade. Two are found in the Flying Fortress, and another in the past version of the Chaos Shrine. Additional others may be bought for 16,000 gil at Gaia.
Final Fantasy IIEdit
- "A ring affording protection against instant death."
- —Description
The Protect Ring increases Defense by 18. It protects against Instant Death attacks. Protect Ring is one of the items the Lamia Queen drops, and one can also be found in the Raqia.
Final Fantasy IIIEdit
The Protect Ring is an armlet that resists Fire, Thunder, Ice, Wind and Light and boosts all stats by two and can be equipped by all the jobs. It can be found in the Temple of Time and Ancients' Maze, and is a rare drop from King Behemoth.
Final Fantasy IVEdit
- "Ring resistant against fire, ice, and lightning."
- —Description
The Protect Ring grants resistance to all elements to the wearer. One is found in the Lunar Subterrane, while additional others may be won from Ahriman and Magic Dragon. It provides +10 Defense, +12 Evasion, +5 Magic Defense, and +10 Magic Evasion.
In the game's original SNES version, when characters equip elemental resistant equipment, they inherently become weak to the opposite element. A character with the Protect Ring is thus weak to Fire and Ice-elemental physical attacks (however, no enemy uses physical elemental attacks so this isn't usually an issue). This is changed in the Advance version where characters are no longer weak against the opposite element.
Final Fantasy IV: The After YearsEdit
The Protect Ring provides 10 Defense, 12 Magic Defense, 5 Evasion, 10 Magic Evasion, and +15 Stamina, as well as resistance to Fire, Ice, and Lightning. It can only be obtained by either finding it in the Subterrane or by winning it from Fiend Dragon.

One can be won from Odin, while others can be found at Istory Falls, Pyramid of Moore, and the Island Shrine, and others stolen from Soul Cannon at the Phoenix Tower.
Final Fantasy VIEdit
