Iron Arrows (Japanese: 鉄の矢) are a piece of equipment in Nintendo DS Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. It has a base damage of 12 and are fired by Crossbowboys and Baby Tanks which may drop them when defeated. The only way to obtain iron arrows outside of shops in the below dungeons is to obtain them from Crossbowboys and Baby Tanks or consume their meat and fire arrows to fill up a room or more.

Tips For Use

  • Iron arrows have a higher base damage than a Silver Arrow and when combined with a Pitcher's Armband creates a more powerful arrow that will travel through every monster in its path, making it a great way to quickly clear out a Monster House.
    • Should you choose to do this, be careful not to hit a distant and possibly unseen Shopkeeper. If an arrow fired by you hits a shopkeeper, he will turn hostile and hunt you down.
  • Iron arrows can be fired down hallways to damage or kill unseen monsters as well as to alert you of a possible threat ahead.
  • You can fire an Iron arrow to hit an off screen monster or a fleeing monster like an Egg Thing of Thiefwalrus. Or attempt to damage a dangerous monster before it gets close, like a Flutter Fowl which might damage or destroy more valuable items.
  • Iron arrows can be fired in a room and will not land on floor tiles containing Traps, allowing dangerous floor tiles to be identified.
  • Iron arrows are a somewhat cheap and common option to insert into a Jar of Change to potentially get a rarer and more valuable item, though Wooden Arrow would be the wiser option here.
