Which are the best rings in Lords of the Fallen?

1) Ring of Nourishment

After you’ve climbed the stone bridge in Lower Carlath in the upper reaches, you need to look for a gap between the houses. This offers a little alley you can explore, where you’ll want to go right. A corpse found next to a burning home has this useful item.

The Ring of Nourishment isn’t a replacement for your upgraded Sanguinarix, but it will help you stay alive a bit longer. This piece of equipment will give you back some health every time you kill an enemy.

While it’s not useful in boss battles, if you are smart about how you approach enemy encounters, you can safely heal without consuming as many item charges.

2) Ring of Bones

Sunless Skein is home to this particular Lords of the Fallen item. After you arrive at the flooded area near Vestige of Catrin, pull the lever on the left. This opens the floodgates and lets you head down a ladder. You’ll find a corpse that holds this item.

A simple item, Ring of Bones, increases the weight load you have in Lords of the Fallen. While this doesn’t have a ton of uses, it's great to keep your armor load in the Light or Medium category without accidentally going over.

This allows you to wear a bit more defensive gear while preserving swift movement in combat.

3) Mineowner’s Ring

In the Abandoned Redcopse, you can find this accessory beyond the Vestige of Marco de Axe. Go up the stairs, and you’ll see a hanging corpse. Shoot it down or throw an item at it to release the body, and scoop up this useful item.

For players concerned about their Stamina in games like Lords of the Fallen, the Mineowner’s Ring is going to be a must-have. Not only does it increase your Stamina, but it also increases the regeneration rate of that stat. Suddenly, you can go a bit longer in combat without stress.

4) Defiance Ring

Equipping this offers defensive bonuses versus all status ailments (Image via CI Games)

The Defiance Ring is a bit more complex to find. It’s in Pilgrim’s Perch Descent. Once you’ve given the Prison Cell Key to Gerlinde, go beyond the ladder you used. When you see the Orian Preacher Set of equipment, head left to find a door. Use your Umbral Lamp to go through and open the chest.

There’s almost no build or situation where this Lords of the Fallen accessory is a bad idea. It gives you resistance to all status effects in the game; Wither, Burning, it covers all the necessities. This doesn’t give you immunity to any, but it could easily save your life in a perilous situation.

5) Ring of Preeminence

Thankfully, with this, you can cast Radiance spells, regardless of what catalyst you use (Image via CI Games)

Ring of Preeminence is probably my favorite of all of this game's accessories. If I’m going to equip any, it’s this one. It’s found in Fitzroy’s Gorge, beyond the Trapper. Head to the right towards the Emergence Effigy. Go beyond the effigy and loot the item off of an impaled corpse.

Spells in Lords of the Fallen require a particular catalyst. However, if you have this item, you can now cast Radiant Sorceries without having to have a Radiant Catalyst equipped. If you want to have an Umbral Catalyst equipped, for example, it won’t stop you at all.
