Upgrading your stats in Rune Slayer can be quite challenging, even for experienced players. That is why getting the Ring of Vitality is crucial for survival in the wild, as it significantly boosts your maximum health and stamina, allowing you to endure tougher enemy encounters and progress more.
Getting the Ring of Vitality in Rune Slayer is easy and hard at the same time. All you have to do is complete a quest for an NPC in the starting town. The hard part comes from the quest, called Monster Fish, which is to defeat a specific monster. Below, we will go over all the steps and how to proceed in this quest:
The fish can be found swimming in the water and is visible from the ground above the lake. This fight can be pretty challenging for low-level players, so I recommend leveling up a little bit first. The Monster Fish (Baracuda) has a lot of health and has attacks that deal continuous damage to the player. To defeat it, use the swing-and-dodge strategy and bring a potion or two.
When talking to Alvin after defeating the Monster Fish, he will thank you for helping a village and give you your reward:
Now that you have the ring, you can finally enjoy the bonus stats and progress the game easier. You can equip it to your character by going to the Character menu and dragging the Ring of Vitality into any of the four ring slots. The Ring of Vitality gives you increased Maximum Health, Health Regeneration, and Stamina.
