A '''ring of resist corrosion''' grants its wearer [[corrosion]] resistance, providing a 50% chance of negating each level of the corrosion [[status effect]] you would normally receive. It reduces the amount of [[acid]] damage you suffer by 50%, further reducing the odds of any given attack corroding you. Also, the ring gives immunity to [[Cloud#Acidic_fog|clouds of acidic fog]].

When facing acid damage, corrosion resistance is very helpful, reducing your damage intake and preventing corrosion from affecting your [[accuracy]], [[damage]], and [[AC]]. Acid damage is a serious threat all throughout [[the Slime Pits]], and can also be an issue when dealing with enemies like [[caustic shrike]]s, [[entropy weaver]]s, [[ancient lich]]es, and [[oklob plant]]s.
Acid is a rare element, but some form of rCorr is nice to have (at least as a swapout). It's particularly good throughout [[the Slime Pits]], which are filled with [[acid blob]]s.

Name Ring of resist corrosion
Icon
A ring that provides partial protection from all sources of acid and corrosion.

A ring of resist corrosion grants its wearer corrosion resistance. This reduces acid damage by 50%, gives a 50% chance to resist the corrosion status effect, and gives immunity to clouds of acidic fog. Multiple sources of resist corrosion do not stack.

Desirability

Acid is a rare element, but some form of rCorr is nice to have (at least as a swapout). It's particularly good throughout the Slime Pits, which are filled with acid blobs. Having rCorr is also useful against a number of enemies, such as oklob plants, entropy weavers, goliath frogs, and caustic shrikes.

Resist corrosion does protect against the *Corr artefact property. Wearing this ring just to protect against *Corr is questionable, though.

History

  • Prior to 0.18, there was an amulet of resist corrosion instead of a ring.
  • Prior to the corrosion overhaul of 0.15, corrosion resistance offered a 90% chance of negating corrosion effects against vulnerable weapons and armour. This stacked with other sources of resistance.
