Trivia

• The Leather Hat, the Fuzzy Hat, and the Pilot Goggles are the only male hats from Epic Battle Fantasy 3 that have yet to return in subsequent games.
• All of the male armor appearing in EBF3 returned for Epic Battle Fantasy 4; so far, this is the only time all of the equipment in a specific category has reappeared in a subsequent game.
