The ring of poison resistance grants poison resistance when worn.
Desirability
Poison is a threat from the very beginning of the game, and one Lair branch is guaranteed to be poison-themed. This makes poison resistance extremely useful in certain parts of the game, and rings of poison resistance are a conveniently swappable way to get it.
