- Main Stat Upgrade: Complete dungeons or clear Infinite Tower floors.
- Substat Upgrade: Use Success Scrolls obtained from various activities.
- Rerolling Rings: Reset base power, upgrades, and substats at the Upgrade & Reforge station.

Understanding Ring Upgrades in Fabled Legacy
Rings in Fabled Legacy are crucial items that significantly boost a player's health, damage output, or provide other beneficial bonuses. Each ring specializes in physical, spell, or health attributes, and their base power can be further enhanced through a dedicated upgrade system. Mastering this system is key to maximizing your character's potential.
There are two primary aspects to ring upgrades: increasing the ring's main power and enhancing its substats. Both methods contribute to making your rings more formidable on the battlefield.
Always aim for Legendary or Secret rarity rings, as they offer more substats and higher base power, making them the strongest options for late-game progression.
Ring Upgrade Overview
Rings have fixed upgrades, meaning their potential power increase is predetermined. The upgrade process itself involves completing specific in-game activities or consuming special items.
| Upgrade Type | Method | Effect | Cost/Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main Power | Dungeon Completion, Infinite Tower | Increases the ring's overall power | Completing dungeons, clearing Infinite Tower floors |
| Substats | Success Scrolls | Increases a random substat's value | Consuming Success Scrolls (1 scroll per substat upgrade) |
Upgrading Your Ring's Main Power
The main power of your equipped ring primarily increases through active gameplay. This method requires you to engage in various challenging activities across Fabled Legacy's world. The more you play, the stronger your rings become.
Be aware that a bug currently rounds down ring power after each dungeon, potentially leading to a lower maximum power than mathematically expected. Rings under 100 power might not gain power from dungeon completions.
Methods for Main Power Upgrades
Complete Main Dungeons
Successfully clearing any of the main dungeons, from Raided Village to Neon District, will contribute to upgrading your currently equipped ring. Ensure the ring you want to power up is equipped before entering.
Conquer Elemental Raids
Participating in and completing Elemental Raids also grants upgrades to your equipped ring. These raids offer challenging encounters but come with valuable rewards, including ring progression.
Finish Boss Rush
The Boss Rush mode is another reliable way to increase your ring's main power. Each successful run helps push your ring's stats higher.
Ascend the Infinite Tower
For every 5 floors cleared in the Infinite Tower, your equipped ring will receive an upgrade. This provides a consistent progression path for those who enjoy endurance challenges.
Enhancing Ring Substats with Success Scrolls
Beyond the main power, rings possess valuable substats that provide passive buffs. These substats are crucial for fine-tuning your build and can be upgraded using Success Scrolls. Each time a substat is upgraded, its value increases by a random amount within a specific range.
| Rarity | Number of Substats |
|---|---|
| Common | 2 |
| Uncommon | 2 |
| Rare | 2 |
| Epic | 2 |
| Legendary | 3 |
| Secret | 3 |
Success Scrolls are the current primary method for substat upgrades. Historically, Ring Upgrade Tokens were used, but they were removed on March 16, 2025, and converted into perk runes.
How to Obtain and Use Success Scrolls
Acquire Success Scrolls
Success Scrolls can be found in various ways:
- Dungeon Drops: Rare chance from dungeons on Chaos difficulty. The tier of the scroll corresponds to the dungeon.
- Elemental Raids: A 2% chance to drop scrolls of the corresponding tier.
- Temporal Chamber: Global Boss offers a 100% chance for Tiers 1-11 scrolls and 50% for Tier 12.
- Infinite Tower: Tiers 4-12 scrolls have a 5% chance per 5 floors cleared.
- Quests & Battlepass: Claiming quests and progressing through the Infinite Battlepass.
- Mana Stone Store: Available for purchase.
- Travelling Merchant: 5% chance for a scroll based on your current dungeon/level (one-time purchase).
- Level Milestones: Receive 3 scrolls based on Elemental Raids' tiers.
Visit the Upgrade & Reforge Station
Head to the Upgrade & Reforge station located in the game's lobby. This is where all ring modifications take place.
Select Your Ring and Substat
Interact with the station and select the ring you wish to upgrade from your inventory. You will then be prompted to choose a specific substat on that ring to enhance. Only scrolls of the same tier as the ring can be used.
Confirm Upgrade
Each substat upgrade costs one Success Scroll. Confirm your selection to consume the scroll and increase the chosen substat's value by a random amount.
Advanced Ring Management: Rerolling and Transferring
Sometimes, a ring's initial substats or base power might not align with your build goals. Fabled Legacy offers mechanics like rerolling and substat transferring to help you optimize your rings further. These processes require Gems and careful consideration.
Rerolling is particularly useful if a ring's "potential" power is lower than desired or if you're chasing specific substats for a perfect build.
Rerolling Rings
Rerolling a ring will reset and randomize its base power, the number of upgrades, and its substats. This effectively gives you a fresh start with the ring.
| Rarity | Reroll Cost (Gems) |
|---|---|
| Common | 10 |
| Uncommon | 50 |
| Rare | 100 |
| Epic | 250 |
| Legendary | 500 |
| Secret | 1000 |
Process for Rerolling:
- Unequip the Ring: Ensure the ring you want to reroll is not equipped.
- Go to Rerolls & Transfers Station: Find this station in the lobby.
- Select Ring: Choose the ring from your inventory.
- Pay Gems: The cost varies by rarity.
- Confirm Reroll: Once confirmed, all stats will be randomized and cannot be undone. Rerolling can only be done once per item.
Substat Transferring
This unique mechanic allows you to move a desired substat from one ring to another. It's a powerful tool for creating highly optimized rings.
Requirements for Substat Transferring:
- Two Rings: You need two rings.
- Matching Criteria: Both rings must be of the same class, tier, and rarity.
- Unupgraded Substats: The substats on both rings must be unupgraded.
- Cost: Substat transferring costs the same amount of Gems as rerolling for that rarity.
Process for Substat Transferring:
- Visit Rerolls & Transfers Station: Locate this station in the lobby.
- Select Rings: Choose the two eligible rings from your inventory.
- Choose Substat to Transfer: Select the specific substat you wish to move.
- Confirm Transfer: Both rings will be consumed, and a new ring will be created with the transferred substat.
Optimizing Your Ring Strategy for Maximum Impact
To truly excel in Fabled Legacy, a strategic approach to ring acquisition and upgrading is essential. Don't just upgrade any ring; focus your efforts on those that will provide the most significant boost to your character's build.
The most powerful rings in the game are those of Legendary rarity, dropped from corresponding raid tiers, and Secret rarity, which can be crafted using 3 Legendary rings (or 2 Legendary + 1 Secret from a previous tier) and Calamity difficulty materials.
Key Optimization Tips
Focus on High Rarity Rings
Prioritize upgrading Legendary and Secret rarity rings. They start with more substats (3 compared to 2 for lower rarities) and have higher base power potential, making your investment more impactful.
Align Substats with Your Class
Ensure your ring's substats complement your chosen class. For example, Warriors benefit from Melee DMG and Phys DMG, Mages from Bolt DMG and Spell DMG, and Guardians from Outgoing Healing and Bonus HP.
Strategic Rerolling
Don't hesitate to reroll rings if their initial substats or base power are unfavorable. While it costs Gems, a perfectly rolled ring can drastically improve your performance.
Utilize Substat Transferring
If you find a ring with a perfect substat but on a suboptimal base, consider using substat transferring to move that desirable stat to a better base ring. This is an end-game optimization technique.
