Shiren 1 DS:Herb of Life

The Herb of Life (Japanese: 命の草) is a herb introduced in the Super Famicom release of Shiren 1. Consuming it grants Shiren +3 maximum HP. Please note that Shiren's current HP will not be increased from eating an Herb of Life. It can also be thrown at a Monster or NPC but it will have no effect on them with one exception. ghost-type Monsters will take 50 damage when hit with a thrown Herb of Life, giving it some weapon usage, though the additional hit points are often vastly more desirable to the player.

Tips for use

• Due to there being no real HP cap in this game, it is never a bad idea to simply eat this herb immediately upon finding one.
• You can opt to throw this herb at any ghost-type Monster to deal 50 damage to them.
