There are a lot of things that players can do, craft, and gather in Stardew Valley throughout its expansive and immersive world.
The game is more than just farming and gathering resources. It also features a fun combat mechanic with various equipment you can use. One of these is rings that provide various benefits and buffs while wearing them.
With so many available rings in the game, knowing which ones to get and use can sometimes be confusing. This guide helps players learn about the best rings in Stardew Valley and how to get them for themselves.
Napalm Ring
This particular ring is very useful when players want to cause an explosion in order to get down to the next level inside the mines. Every monster that you slay while wearing this ring will explode, which will destroy nearby objects and damage nearby enemies.
The benefit of using this ring is to get through the mines and the Skull Cave much faster than you normally can. The best thing is that the explosion does not damage you at all, according to Game Rant.
You can get the Napalm Ring in Stardew Valley by completing the Kill 250 Serpents or Royal Serpents bounty and claiming it at the Adventurer's Guild. You can get additional copies of the ring by paying 30,000g to Marlon.
Thorns Ring
If you are looking to deal passive damage when fighting, then the Thorns Ring is a good option for a ring. It makes enemies that deal damage to you receive the same damage to themselves.
This mechanic is particularly useful if you do not have any strong weapons to deal damage against some powerful foes. The only drawback to this is that you need to take damage to reflect some of it back.
This particular ring can be acquired by crafting through the recipe that you can get when you reach Combat Level 7. The materials that are needed are 50 pieces of bone fragments, 50 pieces of stones, and one piece of Gold Bar.
Magnet Ring
When it comes to exploration, gathering drops that you get from enemies can be quite a hassle. This is what the Magnet Ring helps to alleviate as you will automatically gather them by running over them, Destructoid said.
You can also wear two of these rings in order to boost its effect and double the radius at which items will start to float towards you. The Magnet Ring can be found as a drop from enemies on floors 40 to 79 of the mines.
Lucky Ring
The Lucky Ring is useful for increasing players' luck by +1 as it has an effect on everything that you do. This means that having this accessory on a lot of times is beneficial to give you that extra boost in finding something valuable.
There are two main ways to get this particular ring. The first is as a special item drop in the Skull Cavern and the second is as a rare drop when Panning.
Wedding Ring
While the Wedding Ring is not useful in combat or resource gathering, it is arguably one of the most important rings in Stardew Valley. This is because this item allows players to get married in multiplayer sessions to whomever they want.
This particular ring can be crafted using a Prismatic Shard along with five pieces of Iridium Bars. Getting these materials will most likely mean that you are already in the mid-to late-game of Stardew Valley, according to Hardcore Gamer.
