The Ring of the High Kings is a guaranteed artifact. It appears as a platinum ring when unidentified.

Desirability[]

Wearing the ring is the easiest way to pass the eternal guardian, who obstructs a staircase in the lower Caverns of Chaos. This alone makes it worthwhile for many players to obtain it.

It grants a few resistances and a small boost to the PC's armor rating, which may make it worth wearing in general, although most PCs are likely to find something better.

Guaranteed/Common sources[]

Found in the locked room on the lowest level of the Tomb of the High Kings.
