A ring of ice is a ring that enhances the power of ice magic spells. Additionally, it provides one level of cold resistance (rC+) and one negative level of fire resistance (rF-).
Tips & Tricks
- A ring of ice can serve as a poor man's ring of protection from cold in a pinch, particularly if you should encounter an Ice Cave mini branch.
- You don't want to be vulnerable to any element for too long, since you (the player) can always forget about it. Even if you use Ice Magic, you'll want a source of fire resistance to counteract the vulnerability.
