Posted Jan 1, 2019This ring should be uncommon because the ring of warmth is and it gives resistance to cold damage and another thing.

Posted Mar 30, 2019Also the Periapt of Proof Against Poison grants immunity to poison damage and condition, doesn't need attunement, and is a rare item. Much stronger than option 7 of this item.

Posted Apr 25, 2019Just because two things are rare doesn’t make them equally rare. The Periapt of Proof Against Poison (which I’m going to call PPAP) is probably rarer, but not quite very rare. But yes. It is much better.

Posted Nov 11, 2020Ten resistance options, people tend to have ten fingers, someone with one of every resistance ring could, in theory, wear all of them.
Only could attune to 3 at a time, but, tiu can wear unattuned rings as, say, cosmetics to show off.
Or maybe to confuse which 3 resistances you have.

Posted May 3, 2021Ring of Resistance maybe should have varying rarities like other items like Ioun stones. Poison resistance is far weaker than say acid, fire, or cold resistance (not even as good as a ring of warmth which is uncommon), especially considering the Periapt of Proof against Poison is also rare, gives total immunity to poison, and doesn't ever require attunement. I might even go so far as to say all rings of resistance would be uncommon.

Posted Dec 31, 2022The Brooch of Shielding is also a straight upgrade to the Ring of Force Resistance while only being uncommon rarity.

Posted Nov 2, 2024So am I the only only slightly confused by the 2024 Ring of Resistance attunement change? I'm guessing its a mistake given removing attunement would be huge for these rings. Also, while the general item entry has no attunement, every specific ring entry (Ring of Fire Resistance, Poison Resistance, etc) does list attunement as a requirement. Maybe they wanted to allow for other lesser rings of resistance that might not require attunement in the future?

Posted Nov 6, 2024Seems to be a bug in the DMG since if you hover over the each individual ring of resistance type, it does say it requires attunement

Posted Aug 4, 2025This is one of the only ways in the game to get resistance to force damage; it's classified correctly for sure
