Card Rulings:Raregold Armor
OCG Rulings
- The effect "As long as you control the monster equipped with this card, your opponent cannot attack other monsters other than the equipped monster" does not make a Chain Link.[1]
- "Raregold Armor" can be equipped to a monster in the opponent's Monster Zone, but because the player does not control the equipped monster, the effect of "Raregold Armor" is not applied.[1]
- If there are 2 monsters in your Monster Zones equipped with your "Raregold Armor", the opponent's monsters cannot attack. (Monsters that can attack directly due to being equipped with "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal" etc. can attack directly.)[1]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[2] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

- "Raregold Armor" & "Metalsilver Armor" only apply their effects when the same player controls the Equip Spell Card and the monster it is equipped to; you can equip these cards to a monster controlled by your opponent but the effect is not active.
- If you have 2 monsters equipped with "Raregold Armor", then your opponent cannot attack.
- If you have a Warrior-Type monster equipped with "Raregold Armor", and "Marauding Captain", your opponent cannot attack.
- You have an Amazoness equipped with "Raregold Armor", and "Amazoness Tiger", your opponent cannot attack.
- "Ring of Magnetism" 'trumps' "Raregold Armor", "Amazoness Tiger", and "Marauding Captain". So if you have a monster equipped with "Ring of Magnetism", and a monster equipped with "Raregold Armor", the monster equipped with "Ring of Magnetism" is the target of attacks.
- If you control "Patrician of Darkness" and have a monster equipped with "Raregold Armor", you can only re-direct attacks to the monster equipped with "Raregold Armor" as it is the only legal target.
