The Armor Ward (Japanese: 重装の盾) is a shield introduced in the Super Famicom release of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer DS. It bears the File:Shiren 1 DS Shield Seal Heavy.png (Heavy) Seal which doubles Fullness depletion. Normal: 1 fullness every 10 turns Heavy seal: 1 fullness every 5 turns.

Tips for use

• Combine an Armor Ward with a Hide Shield in a Melding Jar to remove the File:Shiren 1 DS Shield Seal Heavy.png seal. Combine the Armor Ward with a second Hide Shield to add the File:Shiren 1 DS Shield Seal Hunger.png seal to the Armor Ward so that fullness will decrease every 20 turns.
• As the second toughest shield after the rare Windshield/Stormward an Armor Ward is the best option for a disposable yet resistant shield, as they are quite common.
