The Sting Shuriken (針手裏剣 Hari shuriken, lit. Needle Shuriken) is a Shuriken that is introduced in Fire Emblem Fates. It is imbued with the special property of inflicting effective damage against armoured units, but is weak against non-armoured foes. The Sting Shuriken is also capable of reducing the Skill, Defense and Resistance of enemy units post-battle, alongside raising its wielder's Speed by 2.
