| A ring that grants its wearer flight. |
By wearing a ring of flight, you gain the ability to fly for as long as you wear it. Note that flying characters still trigger traps as normal.
Strategy
Flight is useful in areas where water is common, such as the Swamp or Shoals. Having flight on hand can help you avoid or fight monsters wherever water and lava are present. While many monsters in the aforementioned Lair branches swim faster than the average player, flight still prevents many of the penalties while fighting in water, including its effect on invisibility.
History
- Prior to 0.27, flight was a temporary ability. You could evoke the ring for 3 MP, with a failure rate that scaled down with Evocations. You could not extend the duration of the effect by evoking the ring while already flying.
- The ring of flight was introduced in 0.12, replacing the ring of levitation.
