During a game, unless they’re feeling particularly naughty, like when the rare item rewards if the idol of Silvanus is stolen from the Druid Grove. While wearing the ring, the wizard can enjoy a +1 boost to both armor class and saving throws. It is best to wait until the druids have stopped the rite of thorns before they steal the idol, or all the druids will turn hostile and slaughter the tieflings. Investigating Kagha and then stealthily stealing it will allow for the most peaceful resolution.

The spell slot can be of any level, which is amazing, and the spell slot remains even after the amulet is removed. This means the spellcrux amulet can be used and swapped for another amulet.
