  • Purchase from Straid of Olaphis for 5000 souls (only available when Soul Memory is above 30000)
No "A ring affixed with an open vessel. The vessel insatiably absorbs souls in place of its wearer, who is left unaware even of their collection.
All things are rooted in souls, but what drives our thirst for them? Abstinence from this elixir may be the truest homage to an enduring self"
  • From Patch 1.10"When players equip the new Agape Ring, souls collected from kills during online play will be absorbed by the ring rather than the player. This allows players to control their online matchmaking experience by limiting their total souls collected."
  • Currently, ALL souls obtained, online AND offline, including NPC enemies during player vs. environment, are absorbed by the ring.
  • You cannot use soul items as consumables while wearing the Agape Ring.

  •  The resistance provided by the Cursebite Ring could prove useful against Nashandra, who summons a number of wisps that constantly plague the player with curse if they get too close. Players should be mindful where the wisps are when strafing or dodging. The ring should be very helpful but in the worst case scenario, pair it alongside the Ring of Binding to limit HP reduction.

The kingdoms of Alken and Venn long ago flourished on these very grounds. They were both founded by the same man, but were reduced to rivalry and spite."
  • Increases ALL physical damage. This includes fists and bows.
  • As this ring does not provide a percentage increase in damage, it is most effective with weapons that can attack rapidly, in order to proc the increased damage as often as possible.
  • The physical damage bonus provided by this ring is reduced proportionally to the physical damage reduction of the imbuement used for each individual weapon (typically 20%-30%). See the Imbuement section of the Upgrades page for more details.

No "The clerics of the great city of Volgen are Perennially entrenched in scandalous power struggles, but among them remain a few strong-willed, upstanding noblemen."
  • Since the ring effectively grants each of the 5 points of faith for 5,600 apiece, this ring is not cost effective until approximately lvl. 60, when the cost of each level-up begins to exceed 5,600. Once this occurs, purchasing this ring will be cheaper than paying the requisite number of souls for 5 levels.

  • The goddess Caitha could be another name for the goddess Fina.

    • 100 * 1.125 = 112.5. -> Weapon now deals 12.5% Counter Damage.
No "The beloved ring of a dragon-slaying knight.

No "Divine ring that watches over one's soul. Created by Ivory Rhones, sage of Lindelt.
Its great protective power will protect you from any loss upon death or petrification, but after its power is spent, the ring will break"
  • This ring is available as a drop from a black phantom in NG+ (does not work with Ascetic: tried it at both the Grave of Saints' and Majula's). At the lowest floor of the pit in Majula, the part with the 'Exploding Hollows', a black phantom will drop this ring along with a +5 Dingy Set.
  • This ring will break either when you die or when the Petfrification bar fills up. If it breaks after you are petrified once, it will NOT protect you from death afterwards and you WILL lose your souls and humanity when you die.
  • If you die without this ring equipped, you can equip it, and essentially die a second time and your original bloodstain will NOT disappear. This is most likely because you are not dropping a new bloodstain when you die with this ring on. This also applies to the Ring of Life Protection. This is a great way to retrieve souls if you do not want to wear this ring 100% of the time, and instead simply equip it when it's needed.

    Breaks when activated but can be repaired for 3000 Souls.
    *Note: If you are cursed while wearing this ring, you will turn hollow but the ring will not break.
    You will need to spend one Human Effigy (or other ways of regaining humanity) to return to human form.
No "Divine ring that watches over one's life.
Created by the students of Ivory Rhones,
sage of Lindelt

It's great protective power will protect you
from any loss upon death, but after
its power is spent, the ring will break."
  • You will retain souls and humanity upon death. You may, however, still be cursed and thus lose your humanity even if you don't die (for example during the Nashandra boss fight).
  • You may also treat this as a method of taking off Black Dragon Set as it requires dying (but not necessary to be hollowing) to take off the armor.
  • This ring CAN be repaired at a blacksmith for 14000 souls in SotFS version. This makes it a very useful way of remaining human without burning through your Human Effigies. Essentially, this ring allows you to purchase unlimited human effigies for 14000 souls in SotFS version, with an added bonus of not having to retrieve your souls.
  • If you die without this ring equipped, you can equip it, and essentially die a second time and your original bloodstain will NOT disappear except if you died when you're invading as Red Phantom. This is most likely because you are not dropping a new bloodstain when you die with this ring on. This also applies to the Ring of Soul Protection. This is a great way to retrieve souls if you do not want to wear this ring 100% of the time, and instead simply equip it when it's needed.

Hadn't tried yet with equipping the same spell more than once if the charges are directly lost. (The game assumes that any unused spell casts used prior to unequiping SRB are from the slots from SRB, limited by how many casts the spell itself has. ie. Using great resonant soul, one equipped in own slots, and one equipped in the ring's slots, when casted 8/16 times and unequipping, 0 casts resulted. When casted 1/16 times then unequipping the ring, 7 casts remained. Finally when 7/16 casts were used, and the ring unequipped, 1 cast was left.)

Greed is traditionally viewed as a vice, but only a fool lets that ruin a good opportunity."
  •  Effect stacks with other soul increasing items such as the Jester's Gloves. The effect stacks multiplicatively e.g. if you use the +1 ring and receive +20% and wear the Jester's Gloves and receive their +10% then the total effect will be 32% or 1.20*(1.10*Base Souls). 
    Furthermore you can stack multiple soul increasing items. If a player were to wear the ring +2 (+30%) and Tseldora set (+22.5%), then the souls they would receive would be 52.5%, 
    The effects of the ring also apply if you are playing as a phantom.

Simply remove the Ring of Binding and replace it with another ring since the game spawns you in human form when you're a white phantom. Regardless of whether or not you succeed, you should be in human form when you return to your world.(This happened to me recently, I'll have to check whether or not it wasn't just an isolated incident and whether or not it is indeed this item that is causing it)

  • With the ring equipped, your eyes glow red. This is purely cosmetic.
  • Does NOT increase chance of being invaded.
  • In Coop it can be used with a 100% shield to block all the enemies attacks while the other player attacks without worry. The attacker should be careful not to get hit from crossfire though. Shield should watch the enemy for a chance to let down their block to properly keep up stamina.
  • Highly effective for many boss fights (see table below)

Utility in Boss Fights:

The effectiveness of the Redeye Ring in taking heat away from a host/phantoms in a boss fight. The information below is based on the intended goal of making fights predictable by having Bosses consistently focus on one player. Any fight in which the Redeye makes bosses CONSISTENTLY focus on that player will be labeled as an "effective" or "very effective" use of the ring. There are some boss fights where the Redeye Ring MAY draw their attention or has some effect. In these instances, other factors as applicable will be listed. However, despite having some effect, unless it consistently draws the attention of the boss the ring will typically NOT be recommended as it does not fulfill the intended goal as stated above. 
Boss Effectiveness
The Last Giant Needs more testing. Does not appear to be very effective from preliminary results.
The Pursuer Seems to be completely ineffective. The Pursuer, like the name suggests, does appear to primarily focus on the host. While there may be some effect of the ring when combined with proximity or damage dealt factors, there's seemingly no objective reason to not use the ring slot for something else.
The Executioner's Chariot Skeletons are affected as ordinary mobs but must either see or be struck by wearer. The horse seems somewhat affected by the ring, but due to space constraints may target other players. Not really too helpful here
Looking Glass Knight Looking Glass Knight is arguably the single best boss to use this on. Apart from the first attack to the host (as a Redeye phantom wouldn't be in the arena yet) the Knight will fixate 100% of his attention on the Redeye. Caution is advised however, as the lightning attacks in particular can be easy to place your host in harm's way. Trying to flank around him to avoid the lightning slash for instance will make him turn toward you. If the host was behind him, the host will now be in the path of the blade. Bring a good lightning resist shield to soak the damage and maintain space to avoid this. Summoned Squires also seem to fixate on the Redeye, but due to them dying quickly, further research may be beneficial.
Skeleton Lord Lord skeletons seem mostly unaffected while all other skeletons react normally. Must be either very close to them or hit them to draw their attention but can be VERY effective here. Be careful though as four Bonewheel Skeletons all rolling at you at one time is a possibility. Alluring skulls will have a similar effect (though short lived) and direct the fight away from all parties if desired.
Flexile Sentry In NG this is a recommended boss to use the ring on. The Sentry does fixate significantly on the Redeye. However, in NG+, so do the Sentry's friends. This can lead to situations where the Redeye is engaged with one mob and the Sentry leaps across the arena to land a devastating attack to be followed by a triple team. Unless you have faith that the host or other phantom will be aware that you are wearing the ring AND will act to take out the little guys immediately, this is a very dangerous boss to use the ring on. In NG+ cycle or beyond, the ring is likely to increase the difficulty. Recommended for challenging your skills.
Lost Sinner Totally focuses on the wearer. Except if a NPC/Player is strictly between the Sinner and the wearer (tested in NG and NG with Ascetic). Due to the Sinner leaping around a lot, there can be a temporary fixation change from this as well. The pyromancers in NG+ also seem to be generally fixated on the Redeye. While they are not guaranteed to do so, it should be cautioned that you are likely to take a fireball from across the arena if you aren't careful. Once the pyromancers come out to play, the challenge to survive increases.
Belfry Gargoyles Extremely Effective, The Gargoyles will all focus on the ring bearer letting others attack when needed.
Ruin Sentinels Sentinels are attracted to the ring but may demonstrate it randomly. For instance, they may choose to engage another player briefly and return to the ring wearer on a whim. May use their jump attack(s) to close the distance quickly. Other times they may show dogged perseverance in attempting to get to the wearer, even ignoring someone else that is causing high damage. While fighting Yahim on the ledge, Ricce and Alessia won't behave differently (which is good).
Royal Rat Vanguard Can't summon or be summoned here. Rats are all aware of your presence anyway.
Royal Rat Authority Can't summon or be summoned here. Untested to see if smaller rats may aggro easier.
Scorpioness Najka Limited effectiveness. Seems to focus on hosts first but if a Redeye wearer hangs close enough she may temporarily focus on them. Better uses for the ring slot exist.
Duke's Dear Freja Can be very effective. Maintaining distance from her can result in her looping the laser attack. Closer range can lead to repeat stomp and vomit attacks. As the little spiders will also likely engage the Redeye, this can be a challenging fight.
Mytha, The Baneful Queen Mytha is easy to convince that the Redeye ring wearer is the true enemy and will often focus solely on that player. The Redeye may even be able to direct the fight to the degree of getting her to turn and expose her back to the other player(s). Very effective use of a ring here.
The Rotten Will almost always fixate on the Redeye. On occasion he will target another player but the odds that this will be effective are in your favor.
Old Dragonslayer Very effective in this fight. Confirmed that, on occasion, he will ignore the host even for his opening dash attack despite a Redeye phantom entering the mist later. Heavy damage from another player (especially right at the start of the fight and from melee) can lead to him choosing another target, but he will regain the Redeye focus easily. Same effect with host fixation (if he chooses the host first, you may have to encourage him to choose someone else). However, once fixated, he seems to remain locked on better than most enemies and will often ignore everyone else.
Covetous Demon Needs to be tested. However, a more potent effect than the Redeye can be achieved by shooting the urns above him hanging from the ceiling (iron arrows work well). This drops a hollow who the Covetous Demon will completely fixate on to the exclusion of all else. There are several hollows that can be dropped in.
Smelter Demon Limited effectiveness due to location. All other things being equal (damage, distance from him) the Smelter Demon will probably choose to engage the Redeye wearer. However, as the room is small it's hard to have players distance themselves far enough away to have him lose track of them. You could find a better ring than this to help.
Old Iron King There are some limitations to this due to arena size. Many attacks have a chance to damage all players regardless of who the King is focused on. However, he will nearly universally target the Redeye with his melee attacks. While the sweeping arm is still a problem for everyone, the follow up vertical smash (or the standalone two handed vertical smash) will be aimed at the Redeye. What this means is that ONLY the Redeye will need to dodge this or is at risk for a follow up attack, allowing players that got hit a chance to heal or get some space. Effective use of a ring slot if you're good at dodging him and don't need it for something else ("don't use this ring if you don't know the boss" is good advice no matter what).
Guardian Dragon Does not appear to be particularly effective. Seems to lose focus on the Redeye often. This is possibly due to the nature of him jumping up and flying, maybe in excess of certain proximity triggers. Further testing required.
Demon of Song Quite effective in this fight. The Demon of Song (DoS) will generally target the Redeye wearer first. If the Redeye wearer is the closest combatant initially (runs in first) it's even more likely. Once focused on the Redeye, the Demon of Song has a good chance of targeting that player for the rest of the fight, regardless of damage output or proximity. Ex: Redeye runs in yet caster causes heavy damage before Redeye reaches the boss, DoS still targets Redeye. Alternatively, Felicia (who is very aggressive and maintains close proximity) but DoS still targets Redeye. Redeye wearer can move to the side of the boss which will often prompt the DoS to turn and change direction to the desired one. This is useful for keeping the fight away from the walls where heavier attacks can make short work of players.
Velstadt, The Royal Aegis Can be effective. Velstadt has a good chance of focusing on the Redeye, especially if the Redeye causes damage to him quickly. Staying at mid-range can result in him using his sweeping attack frequently. Backpedaling and stamina are important to draw attacks and then defend them successfully. Particularly after he buffs himself.
Vendrick Cannot be summoned or summon others but needs testing to see if it alters his tracking or perception of you.
Darklurker Cannot be summoned or summon others. The Darklurker knows where you are the whole fight.
Dragonrider Very effective. Will almost always focus on the Redeye Wearer to the exclusion of all else.
Twin Dragonriders Incredibly effective in this fight. The Redeye wearer needs to be careful however, as BOTH Dragonriders will focus on the Redeye to the exclusion of all else, as soon as the fight starts. Due to the bosses' starting locations, it is rare for the host to even draw aggro before the Redeye becomes the target. This means that the Halberd Rider will try to physically push his way to the Redeye while the Archer will target all shots at the Redeye as well. Example of effectiveness: Redeye does not attack and uses only shield, host and other phantom attack archer first (confirmed in several near identical attempts), BOTH Riders will still doggedly pursue the Redeye and ignore the other two players.
Magus and the Congregation Very little utility in this fight due to the large number of enemies. While some enemies will target the Redeye under normal conditions (proximity, damage, etc.) it's faster typically to just kill the enemy whose attention you'd want to draw. This is particularly true as the three main enemies will often divide their attention unless attacked by the Redeye. If you're looking to control the fight with the color red, Chaos Storm is a better option.
Giant Lord Can't summon or be summoned here.
Ancient Dragon Seems to have no effect. The Ancient Dragon will still target other players, and most notably, the flying breath attack will still seemingly be directed at random. Since pretty much no rings are going to help you here (short of Gower's I hear) you might as well still wear the Redeye since it looks awesome.
Throne Watcher/Throne Defender Does not seem to be effective at all here. Defender/Watcher seem to enjoy divide and conquer approaches with them often selecting different targets when two or more players are present. In addition, it is common for them to switch targets.
Nashandra May be hit or miss. Sometimes with her focusing the entire fight, and other times not. Maintaining distance from her when she's focused on you can lead to her using the beam attacks extensively. The ring is worth it, if it isn't replacing something more effective.
Elana, The Squalid Queen Elana is hard to predict the effectiveness of the ring with. Sometimes she will fixate significantly on the Redeye and other times there does not appear to be a difference. Most often she will fixate when the player is at a distance, choosing to use her ranged spells on the redeye. Skeletons in this fight don't have any particular affinity for the ring and do not generally seem to be affected. Velstadt has a higher chance to fixate on the redeye than Elana but is also not guaranteed. It's a bit of a gamble but when the ring works, it can lead to an easier time separating enemies.
Sinh, The Slumbering Dragon Sinh is mostly unaffected by the ring. With ranged attacks he does seem to have a slight preference for attacking the Redeye wearer. If there's no ring that will lead to a guaranteed better chance of victory this can be semi-useful. A player used to dodging the jets of fire and fireball might give a host a couple extra chances to attack or heal if needed.
Afflicted Graverobber, Ancient Soldier Varg, Cerah the Explorer The ring usually makes a difference in this fight. There appears to be a heavy emphasis on proximity for attracting the attention of the enemies. Also, enemies will often swap targets throughout the fight. However, the ring works because they will frequently switch targets to engage the redeye. A savvy host or phantom will then see an exposed back instead of an enemy going for their jugular and capitalize on it. It can be difficult to predict when a target switch will occur but the closer you are to an enemy the more likely it is to occur. From a probability standpoint, at some time during a longer fight you may have all three fixated on you. This can lead to an early exit without your teammates acting on it.
Fume Knight Seem to have no effect, the Fume Knight will react as if none of the players has the ring and will most likely attack the last player that hit him.
Sir Alonne Seems to have some effect upon his aggression, though he is liable to engage other players at random. This target switch seems to prioritize the last player who damages him, which can lead to an early death for supporting casters and archers alike.
Smelter Demon (Iron Passage) The Smelter Demon in the DLC appears to act the same as the other version. There doesn't seem to be a significant enough effect to warrant use of the ring.

For an assassin. whose own life is always at stake, the greatest liability is one's exposed back."
This Ring decays extremely fast. The rate of decay depends on the weapon type it is struck with, the attack type (light/strong/two-handed/one-handed), and spell type. Most melee attacks will fall between 1-5 hits, however, most spells will take 10+ hits to break the ring.The ring's high durability resistance to spells makes it an ideal replacement to using a Havel's or Rebel's shield to counter casters as it weighs less and is just as easy to block spells with since the user just needs to turn their body around. This makes running away from casters completely safe by taking lag out of the equation if rolling.
Instead of using repair powder during a match to repair the ring, farm several rings by using the bonfire ascetic and switch out rings as they get low in durability or break.
This ring gives you the visual effect of a ghost clinging on your back.
Ring will last more hits if using a Bracing Knuckle Ring.
Very useful against certain enemies such as The Ancient Dragon as it will completely negate his fire which is usually fatal. (Doesn't negate damage as of Patch 1.06, but still reduces it)

  • This can be done in new game +
  • It is possible to open the Shrine of Winter (ng+ only) by bringing over 99+ Souls of a Great Hero or 99 Giant Lord Soul (or any amount that would add up to 2 million souls) to new game plus allowing you to skip lighting the primal bonfires. You must obtain a fragrant branch of yore first though in order to get Rosabeth out of the way. (The fastest way to get a Fragnant Branch of Yore is to fall down from the hole in Majula and get the branch at the entrance of the Black Gulch. Make sure not to light any bonfires otherwise you can't use Homeward Bone to get out) From here the game gets linear and the rest of the path is self explanatory. You should get the ring after the credits.
  • Lighting bonfires creates checkpoints, and this might tempt you to light every bonfire that you come across to make dying less of a hassle. Do remember, however, that you cannot warp between fires and lighting more of them will mean that you will have to do significantly more backtracking and will have to spawn at the last bonfire you lit. Planning ahead or staggering your lighting pattern can help greatly with saving time between locations, be careful and stock up on homeward bones.
  • If you are doing this in NG+, make sure to bring at least 2 sets of armor, 5 fully upgraded weapons (for melee builds), 99+ herbs (for magic builds), 99+ lifegems (estus only refills after death), 99+ Divine Blessing (by farming Giant Lord) Dark Hail x2 and Great Resonant Soul x2 and repair powders.( Equipment durability only resets upon resting at a bonfire or upon death) or simply carry a depleted Santier's Spear since it has infinite durability. switch your Vigor into 50, Intelligence and Faith into 60 or 99, Vitality into 50 with the help of Soul Vessel if you're a sorcerer or pure caster.
  • Make sure not to light the first bonfire in Drangleic Castle untill the final boss is accessible unless you are confident that you can beat Nashandra without dying. (Dying to the final boss will respawn you to the last bonfire you lighted, probably the one before the Giant Lord boss fight back in Forest of the Fallen Giants)
  • Yes, you can light and use the primal bonfires (after The Lost SinnerOld Iron KingThe Duke's Dear Freja and The Rotten) to come back to Majula, they don't count as the others bonfires.
  • I accidentally rested at the first bonfire in the iron keep and immediately ejected the disk and STILL got the ring. However, the game must be quit/ejected before the flame icon appears on the hud in the corner.
  • You can switch weapons with this ring and they will still be invisible, unlike the Hidden Weapon sorcery... making you nearly impossible to predict in PvP.
  • Works well with Illusory Ring of a Conqueror.
  • defeating a boss as a summoned player will refill estus flasks and spell uses. this doesn't count as resting at a bonfire. It is possible to get the ring even if you use enemies and invasions to sit at the bonfire and get the "Can't use bonfire" message, providing a easier way to get around if you don't want to sit at the bonfire and lose progress in your quest for the ring

    Does not appear to trigger when taking damage while blocking with a non-100% shield.

A precious ring which grants the protection of Quella, god of dreams. Makes its wearer appear as a white phantom, misleading invaders.
He who sets the trap must be wary. For traps are known to spring upon their owners."
  • Invaders tend to prioritize the host, and use of this ring as the host will allow you to blend in with your summoned phantom(s), countering that tendency, however, invader can still view the name of the host upon invading his world, and the name of both the host and phantom are displayed, this can be used as a counter measure.
  • Can be used to disguise as a phantom while invading.
  • Can be used to pretend to be an invader when hosting for the Rat King Covenant, allowing for you to trick invaders into trusting you before betraying them.
  • Does not change the colour of the Red Soapstone Sign

  • Allows you to talk with Manscorpion Tark, husband of Scorpioness Najka
  • Allows you to hear a strange growl in the Queens throne room (Not Confirmed, I went in there NG + no growl).
  • Allows to hear growl of most enemies, commonly thought to be them saying " I'm Hungry. " or "Come over here" while near enemies. Works through walls and closed doors as well.

Useful for locating hidden enemies, and perhaps for a few other things, as well."
 
  • Can not be used in PvP. Controlled testing has proven this rumor to be false; you cannot use voice chat outside of regular co-op. can NOT drop for another player when summoned. it disappears.

  • Opens the King's Gate doors located in Drangleic Castle (near first bonfire), Forest of Fallen Giants (at the bottom of the ladder near the second bonfire), and Shaded Woods (Up the middle path near the Ruined Forked Road bonfire)
  • Also adds slight damage boost of +5 to Pyromancy Flame & Black Witch's Staff, adds damage to fire based weapons. Any weapon or catalyst that deals fire damage is given the +5 bonus. In most cases within NG+, you will only see a +1 AR difference if whatever you're using to attack has more than one damage output. (ie fire and lightning).
  • Increases damage of pyromancies by 0.5-1%
  • Best to be paired with +5 Penal Handcuffs.
  • In SOTFS HD when you equip the ring it seems the statues in drangleic castle aren't hostile.
No "A soul is much like a curse. And those with strong souls must bear within themselves an even stronger curse.
Vendrick, King of Drangleic, used a powerful soul to keep the curse at bay. In the end, he sought the flame that began it all.
Wear the ring to open the King's Gate."
  • King Vendrick will be walking around near the ring. He will not be hostile towards the player. Attacking with massive amounts of damage will cause him to turn hostile and engage a boss fight which will put up a fog wall at the entrance. If the player dies a new fog wall will be infront of the room which houses King Vendrick.
  • Talking to the old firekeeper in Things Betwixt with the ring on will net 6 Human Effigies (The ring is not needed for this). If soul level 1 then she will not give the effigies and will only say to "go along now."
  • Talking to Grave Warden Agdayne after getting the ring will net Agdayne's armor and the Darkdrift katana.

No "Ring of the Way of Blue covenant.

Increases HP slightly.

The Way of Blue is not a developed religion. It is a humble prayer that spread naturally amongst those seeking help.
When apostles of Blue are invaded by dark spirits, they can receive assistance from masters of other worlds."
  • After patch 1.0.4 you do not need to wear the Blue Seal to summon Blue Sentinels.
  • While weaker by 2% than the starter gift Life Ring, this ring is easily obtainable from the very beginning of the game, allowing either for both the Life Ring and this ring (for 8% extra health) or exchanging the Life Ring for another starter gift and supplementing it with this ring.

    To join the covenant (and thus obtain the ring) you will have to speak to Blue Sentinel Targray while having a Token of Fidelity(which is obtained by assisting another player defeating an Area Boss as a Phantom or found on a corpse in Huntsman's Copse near the 2nd bonfire).

who have been invaded by dark spirits.

The ring is engraved with the crest of the
Way of Blue, symbolizing the dignified oath to
protect each world's master from dark spirits."
  • The pulsing icon is thought to be similar to the other seal, next to your HP and stamina Bar. When flashing, you are in the area where you can be summoned to assist a Blue Apostle.
  • To make the icon pulse you need to be human.
  • The activity of the summoning can vary and you will be summoned to anywhere in the world... The ring appears to try and focus on the current area that you are wearing it, however. (Quite active at around 6,000,000 Soul Memory.)

    • If a weapon has bleed attack prior to imbuement and new imbuement is used (meaning a new damage type is added), then this ring will add 40 (20% reduction) to bleed attack.
  • Shadow Gauntlets provide an identical effect to this ring, and the two effects stack together to provide +100/+120 Bleed.
  • The Crest of Blood has no covenant-related effects and is not required at all for any aspect of the Brotherhood of Blood.
No "Ring of the Brotherhood of Blood Covenant.

This is nothing special. Perhaps, in the end, an oath is but a window into the ambitions of the oath taker.

Worship of the sun, now a lost belief, was once widespread amongst great warriors.

Members of this covenant can leave their golden signs to be more easily summoned to join their brethren in jolly cooperation."
Praise the sun.
  • The 5% effect seems to not only scale with lightning damage and is affected by the tier of miracle used. For example Great lightning spear gains ~100 damage with 187 lightning damage and 53 faith using the dragon's chime fully upgraded but Sunlight Spear gains ~230 damage. (if it was only a flat 5% the expected damage increase would be between 25-60 damage). Overall a great ring even in NG++. (Gonna need more information and sources regarding these tests. I did my own testing and the results were consistently a 5% increase of damage regardless of the tier of miracle used. I can't provide video/screenshot proof myself but I did my own testing and recorded the numbers obtained multiple times from various end-game enemies. Without a source on that scaling/tier damage bonus there's no reason to believe that the damage boost is anything but a flat 5% increase. It might be different for PvP but it doesn't change that I was not getting a damage bonus higher than 5% against enemy mobs. This was tested on the PC version after v1.03 release.)

  • Covenant ring for champions. Increases bare handed attack power.
    • This ring increases the base damage of unarmed fists to 200 and increases the scaling to 75% of your ATK: Strength stat and 25% of your ATK: Dexterity stat. The damage is 280 at 20str/20dex. Caestus +10 are at 194 damage with the same str/dex. At 40str/dex the damage of your bare fists equals 340 and caestus are 272. The overall difference even with higher lvls of str and dex will be about a 60-80 damage difference with the winner being bare fists. The biggest difference is that caestus is buff-able and can inflict counter damage,while this ring weights much less than dual caestuses. It should also be noted that the vanquisher's seal's powerstanced moveset has higher starting and ending lag, making it less useful than it appears on paper.
No "Ring of the Covenant of Champions covenant. Greatly increases attack power of bare hands. The souls of fallen heroes found along the way salute those whose scoff at danger and bravely seek the harder path. Joining the covenant strengthens the enemies within your world."
  • You don't have to be in the Covenant of Champions to use this ring.
  • Slower than the Caestus when using powerstance attacks.
  • Does NOT work with Caestus or claws of any sort, although one can always carry a fist weapon on either hand and buff it combined with this ring.
  • Can enable the Caestus power stance moveset for the left hand using the same method (Hold Y / Triangle). Caestus does not have to be dual wielded to enable this function.
  • Since this ring weights much less than fist weapons, one can reduce carrying weight effectively with the help of this ring, it also costs no durability upon punching.
  • Bone Fist powerstance strong attack does not drain the durability of this ring.
  • Combines well with the Ring of Blades and Engraved Gauntlets.

  • Rules of the Fire AR increase:
  1. Weapons must have Fire elemental damage. The buff is static regardless of reinforcement or player build.
  2. Regular Titanite reinforced weapons will receive +15 Attack Rating
  3. Twinkling Titanite and Petrified Dragon Bone reinforced weapons will receive up to +30 Attack Rating. The bonus amount is directly related to the weapon's Fire Infusion bonus. So weapons who don't receive good Fire Infusion ratings will give you a low bonus with this ring.
  4. Twinkling Titanite and Petrified Dragon Bone reinforced weapons that had a pre-existing Fire element will receive more than +30 Attack Rating. The bonus amount is directly related to the weapon's Fire Infusion bonus. So weapons who receive good Fire Infusion ratings will give you a better bonus with this ring.

  • Grants the user bonus physical attack based on their maximum Equip Load stat (Flat value of the amount of pounds you can carry. NOT the percentage of your burden).
  • The lower the user's Equip Load is, the higher the damage bonus, with a max cap of +50 AR.
  • You will get the cap of the damage bonus of +50 AR as long as your maximum Equip Load is under 60.0 units. (10 Vit +Third Dragon Ring)
  • Does not affect bows or backstabs\ripostes.
  • Has its effect reduced by certain infusions like the Ring of Blades.
  • Can be found in an iron chest in Dragon's Sanctum after falling through the gap in the stairs and then taking a left, dropping down into the room with the Corrosive Egg Crawlers then going up a ladder. (Requires DLC Crown of the Sunken King)
No "Ring of Flynn, the infamous thief.
Utilizes the strength of the wind, such that lower equip load proportionally increases physical attack.
Flynn was known as a tiny fighter who packed a mighty punch.
Even the most skilled warriors in the land failed to capture him."
 
  • Due to the fact that this ring gives a flat damage bonus it works best with fast weapons, so that the player may proc the bonus damage as often as possible for the greatest benefit
  • Similar to the Ring of Blades, however its overall bonus is governed by your max equip load stat, and is most useful with minimal to no investment in Vitality. In addition, certain infusions will reduce the bonus damage you receive from the ring. For now it can be assumed that it is working the same way as the Ring of Blades is, and the reductions are respectively the same.
  • Because rings like the Third Dragon Ring and the Royal Soldier's Ring affect your max equip load stat (Vitality), they can also negatively affect the bonus of the ring. This depends on how many points you've invested in Vitality.
  • There is a cap for the ring's effect, a point where increasing your max equip load (Vitality) will BEGIN to negatively effect the ring's bonus, and a point where the bonus does not increase by lowering your equip load any further. This cap is exactly 60 equip load, it would seem. Any higher and you will see a loss in damage, any lower and you will see no extra bonus in damage.
  • Unfortunately, there is no way for you to have exactly 60 equip load, but the closest you can get is 60.2, which only gives you a loss of only 1 point of physical damage. This can be achieved by having 10 Vitality, and the Third Dragon Ring equipped. This is probably the most effective way to use this ring if you really need the extra equip load. Note that if you intend to use both Flynn's Ring and Third Dragon Ring that the bandit class will push you past the 60 equip load as they start with 11 vitality.
  • Removing armor or decreasing your weight will not add to the bonus of the ring. This is because the ring works off of your max equip load stat, and not your character's current equip burden.
  • It has been confirmed not to affect bows, as well as backstabs and ripostes. Furthermore, the ring will only give you an added damage bonus when you are scoring direct hits on people with a melee weapon. (It is unknown if this affects counter-hits aswell.)

Can deflect spells.
When Sir Yorgh faced Sinh, the slumbering dragon, he drew blood with a flash of his steel, but Sinh responded by spewing forth the poison that had long brewed within him, blanketing the city in a miasmic cloud."
  • This ring also has a chance to deflect the projectiles from the Moonlight Greatsword, Drakewing Ultra Greatsword, and the Ice Rapiers strong attacks.
  • The rings durability will only go down with the automatic spell parries and will NOT go down when using an actually parry. (L2 parry)
  • If the ring parries a spell while you are using a Homeward Bone/Aged Feather you will complete the animation uninterrupted, but you will not teleport to the last bonfire.

  • The ring affects lightning damage on both weapons and miracles with the cost of the defense reduction. This ring's effect does stack with the Sun Seal.
  • The ring's total bonus may be more powerful if the lightning AR itself is higher, some testing will be needed.
  • It seems to add 15 damage to weapons infused with lightning, 30 to weapons with innate lightning damage, and somewhere above 30 for a weapon with innate lightning damage that's infused with lightning.
