    If you help slay awater elementalwhile attuned to the ring, you gain access to the following additional properties:

    I feel this needs clarification from the powers that be. What is the time line on this ? Is it just after the wearer helps slay a WE or at any time (i.e up to years later) after the WE is slain ? This is quite important I think. Does anyone feel that the DM's discretion is the rule here ?

    You get the ring, you attune to it, you slay the water elemental, you get the extra abilities and spells.

    You would get the extra abilities and spells straight after slaying the elemental, like as if their soul gets entrapped into it.

    The ring of water elemental command really should give you resistance to cold damage, seeing how all of the others give a resistance and even immunity in the case of the fire ring.

    I like to rebalance the water, fire and earth rings, just cause the air one feels so much stronger cause flying and hovering.

    Water: Added cold resistance and water walking

    Fire: Swapped fire immunity for fire resistance, but also grants +5ft. Speed and the wearer can choose to emit bright light 30ft. and dim light another 30ft. at will

    Earth: Added resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing and slashing, but I still think Earth is the weakest one

    Obviously flight is very strong but in tight dungeon crawls I’m really thinking it’s all about the earth ring… you can straight up Martian Man Hunter your way through walls, floors, even ceilings with the right movement abilities… essentially your enemies are constantly trapped by walls of stone that are the dungeon itself that you can just walk through and strike or cast from any direction… And if there are no dungeon walls or anything, the ring comes with wall of stone… to create a mini labyrinth that you don’t have to abide by as you walk through it’s walls, strike the enemy… then simply walk back through… incredible..

    If you have slayed each elemental type do you get to have the benefits concurrently?

    Each ring is isolated to its own element rules as written.

    However I play in a home brew campaign where I have a version of this ring that has access to each elementone at a time and can switch the elements aftera long rest.

    Currently I have water and earth elementals slain successfully while having been attuned to the ring on the proper setting for that element as my character has slain each one… that’s the way our DM ruled it for this one… couldn’t make it too easy.
