AnonymousFor those who want the +0 ring early, talk to Saulden first. If you die 100 times prior to meeting him, he doesn’t give you the ring until you die 100 more times.
Step 1: die 100 times
Step 2:get the ring
Step 3:early profit

I for some reason read "looking glass knight" as "looking glass giant". That would be terrifying

Essential if you still want to have a bit of protection with some fashion souls builds.

don't be fooled by the "low" numbers this ring boosts your physical defense the stat that scales with the armor you wear. wearing this you will notice a significant decrease in damage taken great for builds that have medium armor (heide, elite, faraam, ) and ofc heavy (havel, steel, Gyrm etc) so the more defenses you get from armor the more this ring will give you. im surprised the wiki doesn't make a point of mentioning this.

I mean you could use it in conjunction with one of the clutch rings to mitigate the decreased protections.

Sobif the difference from Havel's gear to mastadon (roughly double its defense) equates to a 10 or 11 damage difference, does this ring mean jack sh*t?
As someone that prefers light/medium armor, this ring has saved me so many times. It can allow you to get away with a sliver of health in situations where you would otherwise die.
