Berserker ring (2)

The berserker ring is the strength bonus variant of the Fremennik rings and is dropped by Dagannoth Rex in the Waterbirth Island Dungeon. The Fremennik rings are some of the very few rings to give stat bonuses. Group Ironmen require at least 1 Dagannoth Rex kill before they are able to wear this item.

It can be imbued into a berserker ring (i), doubling its bonuses, by using 650,000 Nightmare Zone reward points, 260 Soul Wars Zeal Tokens, or a scroll of imbuing purchased for 200 PvP Arena reward points.

The berserker ring is one of a handful of rings that provide a strength bonus. Thus, it is commonly used in melee setups because strength bonus raises the player's maximum hit, which is generally more beneficial than accuracy for DPS against targets with low defence.

The ring is most useful when facing monsters with low Defence levels, as the extra hits can increase overall kill times. If crush accuracy is needed, the Tyrannical ring should be used; slash accuracy should use a warrior's or bellator ring.

Players can use a chisel on the berserker ring to create a berserker icon after learning how to combine ring icons from Peer the Seer. This process requires 80 Crafting (boostable), and is part of the process for creating the ultor ring.
