The Prism Shield (Japanese: プリズムの盾) is a Shield introduced in the Nintendo DS port of  Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. It bears the (Damage) Rune which nullifies Staff Attack-type Monster magic into 10 fixed damage. This includes:

• Skull Mage Family
• Fog Hermit Family

This rare shield is only found in the Ravine of the Dead, where only one Item spawns on each floor, except in Monster Houses making it difficult to obtain.

Things to Avoid

• When not travelling through high level dungeons, this seal can cause more harm than good. A starting player from Canyon Hamlet only has ~15 HP but is taking 10 fixed damage from all magic attacks, essentially creating Dragon-type Monsters that cause fixed damage from across the map. This is proportionally equivalent to a player with 100 HP taking 50 fixed damage from an Ark Dragon's fire.

Tips For Use

• Combine a shield with a Prism Shield in a Melding Jar to add the seal to the shield.
• This seal can be useful for high level Skull Mage Family Monsters, as their magic abilities become more dangerous, particularly the Riceball and Asleep statuses and level decrease by 3 effect.
