 The Samurai quest levels seem to contain some every time I've been there, but this may be a co-incidence. Despite this I can't honestly recommend specialising in this weapon under any circumstances even with the handy damage.--[[User:PeterGFin|PeterGFin]] 10:03, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
-:AFAICT, it is a coincidence. The [[Samurai.des]] quest file doesn't define any shuriken, only random weapons. Also, neither [[ninja]] nor [[roshi]] get shuriken when generated. --[[User:Paxed|paxed]] 11:30, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

		+	I've taken an interest in shuriken while playing Samurai for [[never hit with a wielded weapon\|Nhwaww conduct]] since wielding a [[yumi]] is asking for trouble. Shuriken are a real problem to maintain due to rarity+breakage. Even once I'd ramped up luck, enchanted the things to +4, erodeproofed and blessed them my unprecedented stack of 26 disappeared eventually.
