A '''ring of alacrity''' is a type of [[ring]] that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]]. It has a default [[Object materials (dNetHack)|material]] of iron, and appears as a '''shiny ring''' when [[Identification|unidentified]].

It grants its wearer [[extrinsic]] [[very fast]] speed, same as the [[speed boots]]. This changes very fast speed from an extrinsic only obtainable from one slot into another moving part in the [[ascension kit]], thus allowing many new combinations.

 Using the ring to repair imperial elven boots for their speed is highly impractical, since this can also be done with the far more common [[wand of speed monster]].

-[[Putting on]] the ring grants the [[hero]] [[extrinsic]] [[very fast]] [[speed]], the same as a [[worn]] pair of [[speed boots]], and decrements their [[nutrition]] by 1 on every even-numbered turn similar to the [[ring of regeneration]] and [[ring of conflict]].
