Description
A hero putting on a ring of gain wisdom alters their wisdom by its enchantment while it is worn, and a ring that modifies the hero's wisdom (i.e., it is not +0) is auto-identified when put on or removed.[5][6] Charging the ring increases its enchantment if using a non-cursed source, and decreases it if using a cursed source. Monsters will not wear this ring.
A hero eating the ring has a 1⁄3 chance of successfully absorbing its magic and gaining a temporary bonus to wisdom based on the ring's enchantment[7][8]—this auto-identifies the ring if this bonus changes the hero's wisdom, and lasts until the hero changes forms or returns to normal.

- The water flow seems <duller/quicker> now.
- You dropped a ring of gain wisdom down a sink: "duller" is used for rings with an enchantment below +0, and "quicker" is used otherwise. These messages are shared with the ring of gain intelligence.
