The Dragon Herb (Japanese: ドラゴン草) is a herb introduced in the Super Famicom release of Mystery Dungeon 2: Shiren the Wanderer. Eating it will cause Shiren to breathe fire in the direction he is facing. This fire will travel infinitely in a straight line until it hits a entity or a wall, and cannot miss it's target.

The fire will deal 68 - 75 damage regardless of defense to the Monster it hits. Throwing the herb will deal 55 - 58 damage to the target it hits, though may miss.

Tips For Use

• The damage from a Dragon Herb can instantly defeat many monsters, and if eaten, its flames will not miss.
• Equipping a Pitcher's Armband and throwing a Dragon Herb through a straight line of monsters will have a chance to deal ~50 damage to each one.
• When thrown with a Pitcher's Armband Equipped, a Dragon Herb will deal damage to an Inferno Family. If thrown without this Armband, the herb will burn up, and if hit by the flames, the monster would level up.

Things to Avoid

• If an Inferno Family Monster is hit with fire from a eating a Dragon Herb, it will increase in level by 1.
