But, to burst your bubble, buying it won’t be that simple since there are some steps that need to be done.
Adventurer’s Guild
Before the Burglar’s Ring in Stardew Valley becomes available from Marlon, you first have to be able to access the Adventurer’s Guild. It is a building situated at the east of The Mines, occupied by Marlon and his friend Gil. In Adventurer’s Guild, you can buy weapons, boots, and other rings. You can also exchange boots, rings, and monster loots with Marlon for gold.
But, first things first. To be allowed to enter the guild, you first have to go on the Initiation quest which requires you to defeat 10 slimes in The Mines. Upon completing this, you would then earn permission to access the Adventurer’s Guild.
Once you earned your place in Adventurer’s Guild, you are on your way to getting your Burglar’s Ring.
Monster Eradication Goals
Being in a guild, aside from having another place to buy from and sell equipment to, also provides you an opportunity for you to test and enhance your combat skills, all the while, earning satisfactory rewards.
Upon joining the guild, there are mini-quests that might pique your interest, especially with the reward in return. These sub-quests are called the Monster Eradication Goals wherein, true to its name, implies subduing monsters.
On the right side of the counter manned by Marlon, is a list of the monsters with the respective required number of them that you should kill. Along with those are the prizes you can get after completing the mission.
Continuing down that list, you will find the reward Burglar’s Ring which you can obtain after defeating 500 Dust Sprites inside the Mines. They are commonly found between floors 41st and 79th of the Mines. Once you succeeded in downing five hundred Dust Sprites, Gil would then reward you with the Burglar’s Ring, making it available for purchase for an equivalent of 20,000 gold.
Uses of Burglar’s Ring
The Burglar’s Ring in Stardew Valley might not have a lot of uses in the game but, it is definitely an item worth all the trouble.
More Loots from Monsters
If you opt to explore dungeons and caves, hoping to find rare items, the Burglar’s Ring might be an ideal item to equip. This is because, with the Burglar’s Ring, the average number of items dropped by every enemy you had slain will be twice as much. For each item on a monster’s drop list, the game will perform two random rolls rather than only one.
This gives you a chance to double the items you collected while venturing the territory, making it a worthwhile expedition. It also paves the way for the opportunity of–though, less likely–acquiring more rare items than you might have imagined.
With the good amount of loot you can gather with the ring, there is the likelihood of you completing some of the bundles. In fact, this could make it easier for you to get some items required for Special Orders. Also, those that you might not need could, for sure, be sold for a good price while the remaining might be a good present for certain villagers.
Other Uses of Burglar’s Ring
Burglar’s Ring displays a green color which is a good shade for clothing. That being said, the green pigment of the Burglar’s Ring could be used as a green dye for the dye pots.
Other than that, if you think that you won’t need the ring or you really are short on gold, you can sell the ring for 750 gold.
Ring Combinations for Burglar’s Ring
To give players a chance to increase the benefits gained from the rings, Stardew Valley enables merging two rings and therefore possessing both the support they provide. However, you must keep in mind that you can’t forge three or more rings and you are not allowed to combine an already forged ring with another one.
In light of this, here are some ring combinations you can make with Burglar’s Ring in Stardew Valley.
Burglar’s Ring and Lucky Ring
As you might have already known, wearing the Lucky Ring brings along good luck, as if the odds are favoring you more than it often does. Imagine how pleasant it would be to have double the amount of loot drops from monsters and randomly get what you badly needed.
If you are looking for very rare items such as Prismatic Shards, this combination might be the best option you can pick.
Burglar’s Ring and Hot Java Ring
A Hot Java Ring increases the chance of getting Coffee by 25% or a Triple Shot Espresso by 10% from monster drops. Upon combining this ring with the Burglar’s Ring in Stardew Valley, it is very much likely that the possibility of dropping those items would spike.
Being able to gather those speed-inducing items while in dangerous and monster-infested places would be really advantageous for you since it will keep you from collapsing due to sleep deprivation by being outside the farm for a long time. It could also help you escape easier from being cornered by a swarm of enemies.
