This ring should be uncommon because the ring of warmth is and it gives resistance to cold damage and another thing.
Fire resistance.
Also the Periapt of Proof Against Poison grants immunity to poison damage and condition, doesn't need attunement, and is a rare item. Much stronger than option 7 of this item.
Just because two things are rare doesn’t make them equally rare. The Periapt of Proof Against Poison (which I’m going to call PPAP) is probably rarer, but not quite very rare. But yes. It is much better.
Combine the ring of Psychic resistance with a totem warrior barbarian for resistance to everything
already did also adeded in mantel of spell resistance
that is what i was thinking for my character when i came to this page
Ten resistance options, people tend to have ten fingers, someone with one of every resistance ring could, in theory, wear all of them.
Only could attune to 3 at a time, but, tiu can wear unattuned rings as, say, cosmetics to show off.
Or maybe to confuse which 3 resistances you have.
Ring of Resistance maybe should have varying rarities like other items like Ioun stones. Poison resistance is far weaker than say acid, fire, or cold resistance (not even as good as a ring of warmth which is uncommon), especially considering the Periapt of Proof against Poison is also rare, gives total immunity to poison, and doesn't ever require attunement. I might even go so far as to say all rings of resistance would be uncommon.
Fire resistance.
The Brooch of Shielding is also a straight upgrade to the Ring of Force Resistance while only being uncommon rarity.
Agreeing with all the folk saying Ring of Warmth & Brooch of Shielding neeed errata to make them Rare.
