Lingering Dragoncrest Ring | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

For those still confused, This ring, Like in DS1 and DS2, MUST stay on the entire time to gain the full effects, it constantly checks if the ring is on for the increased time, taking it off will remove the bonus time and vice versa for putting it on mid way... Along with this, This effects ONLY self buffs and nothing offensive (so only, self Aura, Body and Weapon buffs... Not spells like Poison/pest mist, Weapon Arts (oddly), status effects (both recieved and given)) It is most useful for Power Within, Sacred Oath, Deep Protection and any Weapon Buff for those looking at prolonged fights or fights with less buff opportunities...

You can get this by doing the steps for the lumbering version of this ring as Orbeck will give you the ring when you give the sage scroll and by the 4 spells, then giving him the golden scroll you get the silent emote and slumbering ring when you talk to him.

Submit

Little known fact: If you befriend the giant in undead settlement tower, he will kill the crab that drops the ring for you. Just use hidden body and walk within a short distance of it.

Submit

lmao

Submit

poison mist is affected by this ring, even similar spells ?

Submit

Something to remember, while this ring does extend the effect length of heal-over-time miracles, it does not increase the total healed, just how long it takes to heal that amount. Makes it good for buffs, but not for these regen-type heals :-(

Submit

wtf i killed the crab but the ring didnt drop, i got a small titanite shard for it
scam

To anyone wondering, I just did some testing with the +2 version of this ring and the Darkmoon Blade Miracle

If you have the ring equipped when you cast it but then take it off right away you will NOT get the extended duration.
If you don't have the ring equipped when you cast it but then put it on you WILL get the extended duration.

Do I have to keep it equipped after I cast the spell or not

Submit

does it work with floating chaos?

Submit

First playthrough, wanted to do a str/fth, buff oriented build. Traded last blows with the crab and saw the ring fading away along with my hopes and dreams.... **** me right?

Submit

Someone should compile a list of all the spells this ring effects. It should be obvious this effects just about every buffing spell and not any weapon arts or items, but the comments here show otherwise...

Submit

Does it increase the length of magic great sword ferron, flash sword, and the flame thrower pyromancy?

Submit

does the bonus still prevail after you swap off? i.e. i'm buffing a weapon while wearing the ring and then swapping to hornet right after buff, will I still get the effect?

Submit

Does this work with Power Within?

Submit

Does this affect resins?

The +2 versions location is the last kick in the balls for the Ring trophy after doing ng+2 NK and the covenants...

Comments shows that peoples IQ suddenly goes down when they are coming to this rings page for some reason

Some interesting comments. Is it confirmed that this ring extends the length of miracle weapon buffs?

Submit

The only time I wear this ring is when I cast magic shield on my great shield (stability of 80 on a shield with this spell uses no stamina that I have found while blocking regardless of the attack, which is great cuz you don't need to spend the extra FP casting the magic great shield version) for boss battles or difficult NPC invasions and it allows you to turtle up in true DS1 fashion. The survivability this affords you is amazing. Only real issue is of course weapons and attacks that deal elemental damage or status effects but that can easily be countered. I only use parry shields in PvP of course, but I am thinking that casting this on my iron round shield might be worth a go. Although I have never seen anyone use this in PvP before. This is my Boss Killing ring.

Submit

Would this effect how long divine pillars of light lasts? Im thinking maybe if it does then you could bait players to attack while the miracle is active making it likely they will get his which i can then follow up with a wrath the gods for really high damage.

Submit

The lingering dragoncrest ring effects spell duration of spells, not weapon skill buff duration. As far as i know, the ring actually does effect how long YOUR aoe buffs last on others. Obviously it doesn't effect how long others' buffs last, the ring is on YOUR finger.

Submit

In order to extend the spell effect, the ring must be equipped when the spell effect would normally time out. If you equip this ring after casting the spell, it will still extend it. If you unequip it after casting the spell, but before the effect runs out it will do nothing. If you unequip it after the spell's duration has been extended, the effect will remain for the full extension. Basically the game performs a check when the spells duration would normally time out, and if the ring is equipped at that moment it's duration is extended. Not really useful info unless you're running short on ring slots. Personally I like to use priestess ring to cast blessed weapon with 10 faith, then swap to this to extend the duration.

Submit

So after making a new character and forgetting about this ring until the profaned Capitol I went back and killed the crab and it didnt drop the ring. Any clue why not?

Submit

So no one has figured out why this seems to add an extra lingering pool of lava with Great Chaos Fire Orb? You can sometimes get two ticks out of it, if I remember correctly.

Submit

The reason it works with stone flesh is that it is the same as iron flesh, but with a visual effect

Submit

Is there any way that this doesn't drop? Questline, story, something I did wrong?

Lingering Dragon Crest Ring page:
"Extends only length of the effects, that are placed on you. For example, if you are wearing this ring, and someone casts Sacred Oath nearby, he will have it only for 60 seconds, while character with this ring will have the same buff for a maximum of 84 seconds with the +2 version. The same principle works with Vow of Silence."

Vow of Silence page:
"Does not appear to be affected by the Lingering Dragon Crest Ring."

I am confused

Submit

Does this work on weapon enchantments?

Submit

Do someone knows if u can wear the 3 versions of the ring and still apllies the total sum of the effect. I mean: If u wear the 3 version of the ring 40+35+30) 105% It should make a x2 on a sword buff right?

Tested Lingering Dragoncrest Ring +1 with Eleonora. This is with respect to Feast Bell Weapon Art which is a bit like a Miracle Buff similar to the Prayer of Favor on Shira's Filianore Sacred Chime. The Results are Unfortunate.
The results were 25 seconds with it on, and 25 seconds of the lacerating and health stealing effect with the ring off. It does not buff your self nor other people of the effect duration. This is similar in Negative Result to the Filianore Chime, which is also unaffected by the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring. These weapon buffs would have been greater if they could be Enhanced with Cleric and Wizard Rings in Duration and Health Restored, but this is also true of the Miracle Spells themselves.

Under Notes, it reads, "Extends only length of the effects, that are placed on you. For example, if you are wearing this ring, and someone casts Sacred Oath nearby, he will have it only for 60 seconds, while character with this ring will have the same buff for a maximum of 84 seconds with the +2 version. The same principle works with Vow of Silence." ... But does this mean that if I were to fight Aldrich and cast Vow of Silence while wearing the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring, then Aldrich would only suffer the miracle's effects for the standard 15 seconds and I roughly 20 seconds? In other words, does the loop hole that applies to other players also apply to bosses and enemy AI?

Submit

I've been testing the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring +2 with heal regen miracles, and they heal the same amount per second unlike what this page would imply. With it equipped, bountiful light still heals 7 HP per second even tho it says it will slow down health regen to compensate for the longer time. Even blessed weapon with 60 faith still heals 4 hp a second with the ring equipped but the buff lasts much longer.

Submit

The +2 version of this ring is in the Grand Archives, you'll have to kill Dragonslayer Armour (and the other 3 lords) to get it.

Submit

To anybody who is asking, I am in NG(+4) and just got all three rings; +0, +1, and +2 version; all in the same NG(+4). I did get them in order from least to greatest, but it is possible to just get all of them in NG++ or higher in just one go.

Submit

Is there a +3 version in the new DLC? They added the useless Wolf Ring +3, so why not a useful Lingering Dragoncrest Ring +3?

Submit

I've been trying to get this ring from that damn crab and it dont drop, I'm on ng+ and I thought you could still collect everything. Is there something I'm missing?

Submit

Is there a list of what pyromancies this works for? Toxic mist? Iron flesh? Floating chaos?

Submit

lame it doesn't work on power within

Submit

I have found out that you do not need to have the ring equipped when actually casting a spell!A spell's duration is increased/dilated from the point when your equip the ring and on wards (so if you equip it late you won't get much benefit).You can therefore use a ring like the deep ring or the priestess ring to meet requirements, for example, and quickly swap to the lingering ring during the cast animation for virtually the same effect as having the lingering ring from the start.I don"t have an account for the wiki but if someone able is willing to add this to the notes i think i could be useful to players

Does this ring extend the effect of the pestilential Mercury spell?

Submit

cmon friends. Please learn differences between Archive and Castle.The castle ends at the Grand archive bonfire. Even if it is on top of the castle, be as accuary as possible.

Submit

Does anyone know if this works with the dragon roar buff from the dragon torso stone?

Submit

Does this increase the length of consumable buffs as well? E.g Carthus Rouge and Green Blossoms

Submit

Please replace "length of spell effect" with "duration: in order to be both more concise and clear; length of spell effect, before having read the description, made me assume it boosted the length of the actual spell itself. Say, Soul Greatsword would be 40% longer.

Submit

Basically, there a +3 version of the ring

Submit

Does anyone know if removing the ring after a buff is applied negates the duration bonus? One would think so, but confirmation would be nice.

Submit

Does this work with rapport? probably dumb to ask but I'd like to know.

Submit

Does this work with weapon arts such as the lightning coating for the Dragonslayer Swordspear?

For example, Havel GS buffDoes it make the buff last longer?

I tested it out with Replenishment. WIthout ring it was 60 seconds. With ring it was 78 seconds. Works as planned. Sure +2 will be amazing.

Submit

I tested this ring with great magic weapon. Without ring: 1.5minWith ring: 2.0minRecommended for buff builds, that last 30sec is where it's going to run out and you're going to get greedy and try to rebuff and risk failure. Best to have it last

Submit

Does equipping this ring make Soul Greatsword reach farther?

Submit

60s + 30% = 78 seconds, not 92....

Does it increase time for "Rappor"?

This ring does effect miracles. Or, at least the hp regen miracles.

It does seem like the normal ring doesn't drop in NG+

Submit

Effects for the ring and +1 were consistent for Carthus Flame Arc, Power Within, and Carthus Beacon.

Submit

It seems like only sorcery buffs are effected and Pestilent Mercury is not and neither is the staff weapon skill, tested the times myself

Submit

The duration boost was about 25%.Tested on Hidden Body, which by default I believe was 20 seconds. Afterwards it was 25. Spook was boosted by 25% as well.

Submit

Can confirm that at least Blessed Weapon is not affected by this.

Submit

+1 isnt in road of sacrifices, its in crucifixion woods near one of the crabs
