The Armband of Loss (Japanese: たれ流しの腕輪) is an Armband introduced in the Super Famicom release of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer DS.

Wearing this armband will cause Shiren to drop a random unequipped item every 8 - 12 turns. This also includes turns passing while stationary by holding and . Equipped Weapons, Shields, Arrows, or the equipped Armband of Loss cannot be dropped. Electrified or currently equipped items will not drop from the inventory. Item and undisguised N'Duba Family Monsters can also drop from the inventory. Undisguised N'Duba's will attack Shiren. The effect of this armband also persists in towns, but not while Shiren is a monster, or inflicted with the 'Riceball' status.

Tips for use

• An Armband of Loss is extremely easy to identify in The Final Puzzle, the only location where they can spawn.
• As they have no beneficial uses, Armbands of Loss can be sold at a Shop for a decent price of 1,500 Gitan.

Things to Avoid

• Equipping this armband in a room populated by Traps or Popster Tank Family Monsters can put items at risk of being destroyed by explosions.
• Sanctuary Scrolls can be dropped with an Armband of Loss equipped, and cannot be picked back up.
