This rings brings its wearer more in contact with the powers of fire. He or she gains resistance to heat and can use fire magic more effectively, but becomes vulnerable to the effects of cold.

A ring of fire is a ring that enhances the power of fire magic spells while reducing the power of spells that involve ice magic. Additionally, it provides one level of fire resistance and one negative level of cold resistance.

Tips & Tricks

  • A ring of fire can serve as a poor man's ring of protection from fire in a pinch, particularly if you should encounter a Volcano mini branch.
  • Unless you frequently use Fire magic, it is not wise to wear a ring of fire for an extended period unless you have a means of counteracting the level of cold vulnerability. Sources of cold damage are generally less common than fire damage, but a stray Bolt of cold with cold vulnerability can pack a deadly punch.
