Wearing a ring of conflict creates a scene of conflict around you, and so is one of the most useful but dangerous rings in the game.

Putting on this ring has several effects. Peaceful monsters will become aggressive towards you. This makes wearing the ring dangerous near strong pets, shopkeepers, or other peacefuls. However, it will also make nearby monsters attack each other instead of you, which is incredibly helpful, especially in high-density areas like the Astral Plane and Moloch's Sanctum.

Identifying a ring of conflict is easy. Just put on the (ideally noncursed) ring and see if any peacefuls attack you, or if monsters attack eachother. A not uncommon YASD is to BUC test a ring as noncursed in a temple and immediately wear it; if it's conflict, chances are good the priest will obliterate you.

Unfortunately, wearing a ring of conflict burns nutrition very quickly: every even-numbered turn your nutrition is decremented.

Dropping a ring of conflict into a sink produces the message, "You hear loud noises coming from the drain."
