Open gear checklistThe core progression
- Seers ring
- Brimstone ring
- Magus ring
The ring slot is cheap to fill and easy to ignore, but the best rings give a flat stat boost that applies to every hit. This ladder spans the quest-unlocked Fremennik rings — a free, permanent baseline — up to the BiS Ultor, Magus and Venator rings for each combat style.
When to move up a tier
Grab the relevant Fremennik ring as soon as you've done the quest; it costs nothing and never becomes useless. The expensive rings are a late-game min-max: worth it once the rest of your setup is strong and you want the last few percent of damage or accuracy for a specific style.
Seers ring
~847.4kThe magic Dagannoth Kings ring — the first real magic ring, imbued later for more.
Obtained from: Dagannoth Kings (Prime)
Brimstone ring
The best magic ring in most content, with a magic-defence-ignoring proc — a top magic ring.
Obtained from: Hydra's eye/fang/heart combined (Alchemical Hydra)
Magus ring
Best-in-slot magic ring with magic accuracy and damage — the endgame magic ring above Brimstone.
Obtained from: Magus vestige (Desert Treasure II)
Archers ring
~2.6mThe ranged Dagannoth Kings ring — the first real ranged ring, imbued later for more.
Obtained from: Dagannoth Kings (Supreme)
Venator ring
Best-in-slot ranged ring with ranged accuracy and strength — the endgame ranged ring above Archers (i).
Obtained from: Venator vestige (Desert Treasure II)
Berserker ring
~3.9mThe classic strength ring from the Dagannoth Kings — the first real melee ring, imbued later for more.
Obtained from: Dagannoth Kings (Rex)
Ultor ring
Best-in-slot melee ring with a strength bonus — the endgame melee ring above Berserker (i).
Obtained from: Ultor vestige (Desert Treasure II)
Other ring options
Ring of the gods
~939.3kA prayer-bonus ring (imbued for a Smite effect) — a niche defensive/prayer ring, mostly for PvP and long trips.
Obtained from: Wilderness bosses (Vet'ion)
Lightbearer
~4.1mDoubles special-attack energy regeneration — transformative for spec-weapon-heavy fights and DPS rotations.
Obtained from: Tombs of Amascut
Ring of suffering
~20.3mThe best defensive ring, adding all-round defence plus a recoil effect — a strong survival ring.
Made via: Crafting + Magic enchant (zenyte ring)
Bellator ring
~19.4mA melee ring favouring accuracy — situational versus the Ultor's raw strength on high-defence targets.
Obtained from: Bellator vestige (Desert Treasure II)
Strict upgrades stack vertically; sidegrades are shown as branches — one is not simply better than another, they solve different problems. Independent families are kept separate rather than forced into a single ladder. Values are illustrative; composite items are valued from their components.

How to read this rings progression
ScapePath maps this category as an upgrade graph, not a single price ladder. A strict upgrade replaces the item below it — it does everything the earlier piece did and more, so owning it makes the earlier one redundant. A sidegrade sits beside its peers because it solves a different problem, and independent familiesare kept apart because they aren't on the same line at all.
This page holds 7 separate families. Buy the next rung on the line you're actually on rather than the most expensive item on the page — the goal is the upgrade that changes your kills.
