The Critical Armband (Japanese: 会心の腕輪) is an armband introduced in the [[Shiren 1/Version Differences|Super Famicom]] release of Shiren 1. Wearing a Critical Armband gives [[Shiren 1/Gameplay Elements/Shiren (player character)|Shiren]] a chance to land critical strikes when he attacks, but increases the rate at which he gets hungry. This armband can greatly assist you if you find yourself to be engaging a lot of [[Shiren 1/Monsters|monsters]] in combat, especially if you lack other resources. It would be wise to try and manage this armbands use by constantly removing it when you are not fighting and then re-equipping it when you are about to fight to conserve your hunger. This is more practical to do safely in rooms rather than hallways. If you are currently using a shield with the [[Shiren 1/Gameplay Elements/Melding and Seals|(H) seal]] melded on, then the critical armband is a great choice to leave equipped at all times as the seal will cancel out the hunger increasing property of the armband, leaving Shiren with normal hunger reduction. However, utilizing this armband with a shield that has the (HVY) seal melded on, then the hunger effect will be doubled, and you will be losing 4x hunger per turn.

Template:Infobox Armbands (Shiren 1) The Critical Armband (Japanese: 会心の腕輪) is an Armband introduced in the Super Famicom release of Shiren 1.

With a Critical Armband equipped, Shiren's attacks have a Template:Data Needed~34% chance of being Critical Hits, which will deal approximately double the amount of normal damage, but the rate of current Fullness decrease will be doubled.

Without any other fullness impacting items, the Critical Armband will increase Shiren's current fullness will decrease by 1 point every 5 turns, instead of the normal 10.

The critical hit rate of the Critical Armband can be combined with that of a Minotaur Axe, when used together, critical hits have shown to occur 60% of the time. This is consistent with samples collected from both items individually, and used together, which were ~34% chance for a Critical Armband and ~26% chance for a Minotaur's Axe.

It is unknown what effect the Critical Armband has with the critical hit rate of a Kigny Axe. Further testing is needed into the interaction of these items so this page can be updated with correct information.

The effect of an Critical Armband is included in several "rescue reward" armbands: the Ace's Armband, and the Berserk Armband.

Tips for use

  • Equip this armband only during combat to make use of potential critical hits, while minimizing the impact of increased fullness decrease.
  • A Shield with a File:Shiren 1 DS Shield Seal Hunger.png (hide) Seal from a Hide Shield will cancel out the increased fullness decrease, and Shiren will lose 1 point every 10 turns, as if unaffected.
