A ring that provides protection from cold.

A ring of protection from cold protects its wearer from cold-based attacks, providing one level of cold resistance (rC+).

Strategy

• Cold resistance is often useful and occasionally critical, although a character will usually have enough time to swap a ring when confronted with a cold-using monster. Whether you regularly swap this ring or keep it on all the time depends greatly on your character's other equipment and your own playing style.
• In general, cold resistance is a lower priority than fire resistance in the late game due to the threat of orbs of fire, though various cold themed enemies are scattered throughout the Dungeon's branches.
