Needles (はり, Hari) are a recurring item in the Suikoden series. They are used to cure the Balloon status effect.

Information

These special needles can burst cursed balloons attached by enemies. Three balloons will cause someone to drift away. The only way to break such balloons is to use recovery magic with a rune or by using one of these needles. They are usually sold in bundles of four.
