Hornet Ring

In Game Description

One of the special rings granted to the four
knights of Gwyn. The Hornet Ring belonged
to the Lord's Blade Ciaran.

By boosting critical attacks, its wearer can
annihilate foes, as Ciaran's dagger laid
waste to Lord Gwyn's enemies

Use

Boosts damage of critical attacks by 30% (after defense calculations)

Availability

Found on a corpse behind the grave of Sir Artorias, in the center of Great Gray Wolf Sif's arena

Notes

• Only approaching the giant greatsword in front of the gravestone triggers the boss fight; it is possible to walk a wide circle around the gravestone, grab the ring, and exit the area without fighting Sif.

• The ring changes the backstab and riposte animations to that of Demon's Souls' against enemies that use the same base model as the player, like online PvP opponents, Clan Of Forest Protectors, Havel the Rock, and most humanoid NPCs, with the exception of Marvellous Chester, who uses a different base model than the player.
