Signet Ring?

[M.T. Fish]

Does it give a buff or am I risking a valuable sell item by carrying it around?

The description implies that it might give some form of buff but if I go to the trader in Little Marrow it adds to the "sell all" total.

I don't know anything about the ring as I've only played the game for a few minutes, but you may want to hold on to it for a while. Take a look at this topic.

I saw that topic earlier. This is from a different quest that you can also possibly fail; the quest for the ring is failed by getting hit while transporting a passenger and someone has brought it up in another thread.

That's a very good question. I saw that description as well but since the ring does go automatically in the trinket category for selling at the trader shop I think it's nothing more than a random description.

I could be wrong ofc but it would be weird for the ring to have any special effect when you can easily sell it automatically for 90 gold by clicking sell all at the trader.

When you think about it, it would be really counter productive then to have a ring that has an effect that you need to have on you and have a feature to quick sell all valuables and you can't use it ever then if you don't want to accidentally sell the ring. Doesn't make any sense to me.

this game needs kind of soemwhat of a wiki for certain stuff but maybe they will release a patch that clarify items and things later. So far ive just seen one thing belonging to a quest that didnt get autosold, the thing you turn into the grieving father

There's another quest item, the brass buckle, that can be sold to the trader instead of giving it to the Grieving Father. I don't know what happens if you give it to the father (I'm guessing it's another skill book).

It's a big part of why the ring is confusing me a little.

I'm also wondering if the ring is supposed to have some lore relevance since I've found one other castaway who had some... interesting things to say (I won't spoil who).

Wikis are usually fan made so it'll probably take a year or so for one to pop up depending on how popular the game gets or how devoted a small minority fans becomes.

If I remember correctly, in the demo while you could sell the Brass Buckle deliberately, it wasn't sold with the mass sell button.

Ive been keeping the Signet Ring in my cabin for the past few hours of play.
I cannot tell whether it does anything.
Based only on the wording, it is plausible that it's a buff. But I have not encountered another item that seems to be a buff, and don't know of a reasonable way to test it.

Considering the strength of the skillbook perks if it does give a buff it's likely only 10%. I kept mine just in case I ran into a quest or something that wants it but I keep it in storage so that I don't loose it.

The only things I can think of it doing is maybe stacking with the sustainable fishing perks or increasing the chance of a trophy fish but I also can't think of a reliable way to test it.

I kept the ring on my boat in case it was useful, then lost it in a crash. I feel like if it actually had an effect, it wouldn’t disappear if a hole appeared under it, instead it would break like your equipment. This and the fact there aren’t any other items similar to it leads me to believe it’s merely a sellable item with interesting flavor text. But this is just an educated guess.

They need a new marker for quest items, instead of the trinket symbol.
Didn't see it mentioned already, but make sure you don't sell Dog Tags either. They are used for something that is not required, but very valuable.

[Labargoth]

After having kept it in my boat for a while I really don't think it has an effect.
As someone mentioned before it will be sold if you do the mass sell option at the trader. Other quest items are not sold when you do this.

// Finished the game now and it has not been used for any quest or anything else. Can't say it has given me any kind of luck either.

[Dridore]

would be cool if it reduced chances of losing an item when taking damage.
dunno what it actually does if anything

Dog tags? Where are you getting dog tags in dredge?

They are a part of quest in the Mangrove islands.
