Shiren 1 DS:Armbands
Armbands (Japanese: 腕輪) are items introduced in Shiren the Wanderer DS which provide a range of direct and indirect effects to Shiren when equipped.
They are the rarest type of item in the game, as all armbands have lower spawn rates than other item types. As they only provide subtle effects, armbands may not be as necessary as Weapons or Shields are for a successful run. Only one Armband can be equipped at a time, so knowing which to utilize for different situations can greatly improve your chances of survival.
In Version Differences, multiple armbands can not be melded together and will never break from usage. Being Cursed disables all armband effects. This makes testing unknown Armbands relatively safe, with the only risk being unable to remove the armband in favor of equipping one with a better effect.
Most of the rescue reward armbands that were introduced in the DS remake of Shiren the Wanderer (SFC) simulate the melding functionality that armbands gain in future titles, combining the effects of two other armbands into one item. All rescue reward armbands contain at least one positive ability.
