Blood-Iron
From RoR Wiki
Blood Iron
Blood-Iron is a special crafting material found exclusively in the Bastion Stair Dungeon.
Blood-Iron is found only in the Bastion Stair, and can be exchanged along with Blood-Gems for a Blood-Iron ring.
Uses
Blood-Iron can be traded to a vendor in the Dungeon's entrance room for Blood-Iron Rings.
- These rings require 4x Blood-Iron and 2x Blood-Gems to acquire, and the gemstone slotted into the ring determines the types of stats and bonus the ring contains.
- The gemstone bonuses here follow the same pattern as both the Annulus Rings from Twilight's Tide and the Lost Vale Rings.
- Blood-Iron rings contain no magic resistance, but instead offer additional armor.
Bonuses
In addition to the normal bonuses, Blood-Iron rings also contain a double-edged bonus that both aids and harms the player who wears them.
When worn, regular Blood-Iron rings increase a player's outgoing damage by 1%, but also increase the player's chance to be critically hit by an enemy by 2%.
- This damage buff will stack with a Bloodlord weapon or a Set Bonus damage increase, like some DPS Vanquisher sets, but multiple Blood-Iron rings will not stack the damage bonus.
Variants
Players can adjust the Blood-Iron ring into a Bled version by exchanging the original ring and a Liquid Serenity item to the vendor.
- Bled versions forego the damage increase and instead grant a 1% incoming damage reduction, however, they still maintain the 2% increased chance to be critically hit by enemies.
- Liquid Serenity can be earned by completing a quest chain within the Bastion Stair.
