Magical Rings

Total64 rings across Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons
Ring BoxL-1 at the start (1 ring), L-2 (3 rings), L-3 (5 rings, linked game only)
AppraisalVasu, Lynna City, 20 Rupees per ring; duplicates sell for 30 Rupees
Split45 rings can be found in an Oracle of Ages game, 11 in Oracle of Seasons only, 8 in a linked game only (counted from the table below)

Oracle of Ages can reach 45 of the 64 rings in a single game, and linked play adds the 8 linked-only rings. You can collect the fixed-location rings by visiting each place, and you can get random rings from Gasha Nuts, Maple, and some minigames. Rings from Oracle of Seasons, and the linked-game rings, need the other game or a password.

How rings work

Ring Box and appraisal

Vasu gives you an L-1 Ring Box when you first talk to him in Lynna City. It holds one ring at a time. Unidentified rings show as numbers in your inventory until Vasu appraises them, and you pay 20 Rupees for each one after your first free appraisal. Once a ring is appraised it works when equipped. Only one ring can be worn at a time.

The L-2 Ring Box holds three rings, and you can buy it from the secret shop in Lynna City for 300 Rupees. The Farore’s Secrets chapter shows the route.

Quick reference: all 64 rings

Rings at fixed locations in Oracle of Ages

Spirit’s Grave: Power Ring L-1 and Discovery Ring

Clear Spirit’s Grave and you collect two rings there. The Power Ring L-1 raises your sword damage and the damage you take. The Discovery Ring senses nearby soft soil for Gasha Seeds.

Crescent Island: Power Ring L-2

Find the Power Ring L-2 on Crescent Island, where you go to collect Tingle’s Chart and other items. It raises your sword damage more than the L-1 version, and it raises the damage you take by the same amount.

Moblin’s Keep: Armor Ring L-1

On West Rolling Ridge, you find the Armor Ring L-1 inside the Moblin Fortress. It cuts the damage you take and also reduces your sword damage.

Sea of No Return: Blue Ring

Find the chest under a coffin in the Sea of No Return, at the entrance to the Ancient Tomb. The Blue Ring halves the damage you take. See the Ancient Tomb chapter for the route.

Sea of Storms: Pegasus Ring

Collect the Pegasus Ring in the Sea of Storms. It lengthens the effect of Pegasus Seeds, so it helps when you need to make a quick getaway.

Mermaid’s Cave: Toss Ring (present)

In the present, the Toss Ring is in the area around the Mermaid’s Cave entrance. It throws items farther. The Big Bang game on East Rolling Ridge can also give it as a prize.

Nuun Highlands: Light Ring L-1

Find the Light Ring L-1 in the Nuun Highlands. Your sword can then fire beams when you are at two hearts of damage or more.

Score well at the shooting gallery in Lynna Village (past) to win the Light Ring L-2. It fires beams at three hearts of damage. The Deku Forest chapter covers the gallery.

Goron Dance: Bomber’s Ring

Play the Goron Dance on East Rolling Ridge. The Bomber’s Ring is one of its prizes, and the Brother Emblem comes from the same chain of items. See the East Rolling Ridge chapter.

Lynna City: Green Luck Ring

The Green Luck Ring is in the Mayor’s house in Lynna City. It halves the damage you take from traps.

Zora Village: Blue Luck Ring

In the present, enter the cave in Zora Village to find the Blue Luck Ring. It halves the damage you take from beams.

Ambi’s Palace: Gold Luck Ring

Find the chest enclosed by a ring of orange blocks in the early rooms of Ambi’s Palace, and slip through the gap to open it. The Gold Luck Ring halves the damage you take from falls.

Zora Seas: Red Holy Ring and Whimsical Ring (present)

In the present, the Zora Seas hold two fixed rings: the Red Holy Ring, which protects you from small rocks, and the Whimsical Ring, which lowers your sword damage and can sometimes kill enemies outright.

Jabu-Jabu’s Belly: Like Like Ring

Find the ring in Jabu-Jabu’s Belly. It lets you become a Like Like, which protects you from Like Likes.

East Rolling Ridge (present): Gold Joy Ring

In the present, a cave on the ridge holds the Gold Joy Ring, which doubles the items you find.

Rings you can only get in a linked game

Eight rings need a linked game, in which the Oracle of Seasons password passes between the two games: Power Ring L-3, Armor Ring L-3 (from Hero’s Cave), Heart Ring L-1, Swimmer’s Ring, Snowshoe Ring, Blue Joy Ring, Spin Ring and Victory Ring. The Victory Ring is the reward for finishing a linked game.

Rings you cannot get in Oracle of Ages

These rings only appear in Oracle of Seasons: the Armor Ring L-2, Red Ring, Blast Ring, Rang Ring L-1, Steadfast Ring, Quicksand Ring, Green Joy Ring, Octo Ring, Subrosian Ring, GBA Nature Ring, Sign Ring. Random rings such as the Expert’s Ring can still appear in Ages from Gasha Nuts, and you can read about them in the table above.
