Shiren 1 DS:Sealing Staff
The Sealing Staff (Japanese: 封印の杖) is a staff in Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. When swung, it will fire a bolt that will "seal away" any and all of its target's special abilities. The attack and defensive strength of a "sealed" creature remain unchanged. Sealed enemies have the "sealed" icon over their heads. This staff also seals away any unusual behaviors of its target. For example:
- A sealed Dragon Family will no longer breathe fire, and can no longer fly over water or chasms. It is still immune to Traps though.
- A sealed Spike Bomb Family Monster will not threaten to explode at low health.
A Sealing Staff is a game-changing item. As Monster levels increase, the severity of abilities increases exponentially, but with the ability to seal at your disposal, the only aspect you need to concentrate on is keeping the staff safe, Traps, and having strong enough equipment to handle monsters that don't have abilities, but have high melee attack power.
