• The First, Second and Third Dragon Ring are treated as the Regular, +1 and +2 versions of the same ring, in that only one of them can be worn at once.
• It is possible to obtain two Second Dragon Ring of these rings by first killing The Duke's Dear Freja, speaking to Manscorpion Tark to obtain his reward, and then killing him afterwards.
