Welcome to a deep dive on the most loved rings of Dark Souls! All of their lore, meta, and fashion will be discussed here.

These rings were worn by Havel, Giant Dad, Flipping Havel, Lautrec, The Chosen Undead, possibly Fina, Shiva's Bodyguard, and many others as the ages went by. From the plot against the gods in ash lake to being worn nearby the firstborn son / the nameless king, Havel's followers survive and wear his ring to show faith. Here too is the story of the mysterious Flip ring, from an Eastern land. And the Fap ring, from the fickle goddess Fina..

This is why Dark Souls only had two ring slots. If you had united the whole Triforce with flipping super Havel, we would have ended Lordran and restored the land of Hyrule instead.

Honorable mention to the Grass Crest Shield, the best ring in the game while not even being a ring!

[Robot-Overlord]

Havel boi was locked into a tower where they had to destroy a bridge to contain him. A man who could slay dragons, walk battlefields with literal gods, and wear several boulders worth of equipment.

Held fast by a wooden door.

This video made me smile, because, as an artistic metal caster, or however it is in english, I made four rings from Dark souls for my bachelor degree. They were the Silvercat Ring, Fire Clutch Ring, Ring of Steel Protection and, of course, Havel's Ring. So, yea... Rather then dish out 400-something bucks for one, I spent about a year making my own. 😀

Regarding why the FAP ring breaks when removed, but not when taken from the dead -- I think is more because Fina condemns the act of treason/cheating in itself, the former lover abandoning her in favor of another. When taken from a dead follower there's no treason, thus there's no sin: the ring comes intact to us Giant Dads and Moms, let's pwn some noobs

My favorite ring will always be the Calamity ring. I have a real one that I wear all the time. And if life feels like its getting too tough, I take it off, and life seems twice as easy.

Shoutout to the unsung hero, easily one of the most useful rings in the game: The *Rusted Iron Ring*

[Dracoboss]

The chloranthy ring is where it’s really at. Ironically, it’s considered the noob ring while being basically impossible to find without prior knowledge.

[pierrelindgren]

Three Red Tearstone Rings for the Min-Maxers under time's pressure.
Seven Flynn's Ring for the Challenger Runners in their channels on Twitch.
Nine Cloranthy Rings for Newcomers prepared to die.
One for Lord Gwyn sitting on his ashen throne.
In the lands of Lordran where embers lie.

[thephysicsgamer]

Hearing your usual dramatic delivery with "double-tuck flippity flip" absolutely floored me

[devoidofvoltz]

Something I really liked about dark souls 1 was that random npc's would be wearing rings as well.

Crestfallen merchant wearing havels was a really interesting choice.

[core-nix]

Lautrec, Gough, Eygon, St Klimt
are references to;
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Vincent Van Gogh, Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt (impressionist painters)

[moxxy]

Idk if anybody else has noticed this, but Lautrec is called the "embraced" by his Goddess Fina and in Elden Ring Fia embraces the player

[bitzovhadez]

Do all the rings please! Always felt they carry the most amount of unexplored lore!

[Above_Average_Joe]

While my favorite 2 rings are the FaP and Havel's, my runner up is the wolf ring. In a game where poise was by all rights overpowered, being able to have crazy poise while having light armor to fast roll or flip is insane.

[teddyhh]

Finally a good rings of power episode 😍

[DjFluttersMTF]

Havel's. 99% of builds profited from the ring, it was the most universally useable and had zero downsides. Flips needed low equip, and FaP locked you into using it

[slightlytwistedagain]

Fina is Velka, which makes the FAP ring the most legendary ring in the series. Fina is also the queen of the gods, as you see statues of her embracing baby Faraam, Gwynevere and Gwyndolin. Fina has the same initial as Faraam and Filianore, and both of them have black hair, just like the black haired Velka. Lautrec also wields a shotel, which is a crescent blade, like the shape of the Dark Moon, as does Priscilla which her crescent shaped scythe. There's only one other location where you can get a scythe in DS1 and that's the Catacombs, which is also where the Way of White followers mainly go, with Velka being the Way of White's patron. Hmm.... a duplicitous fickle god that has fateful beauty. Sounds like all the men in her life meet their end through her. She really is the power behind the curtain, and possibly the first fire keeper who saw the end of the age of fire, like an oracle would see an omen.
