📋 About This Mod
Adding Shines to the commonwealth!
I thought it was weird that Bethesda dedicated an entire armor slot to rings, but only put 2 in the game.
So I decided to expand on it and gives rings a purpose.
Base rings add SPECIAL stats. +hp and +ap rings for each tier. Cost at venders will vary A LOT.
(Values in images were from testing and are not accurate)
Worn tier +1 stat, any level, 100 value. 10 variations.
Pristine tier +2 stats, level 15-20, 200 value. 30 variations.
Atomic tier +3 stats, level 30-40, 300 value. 86 variations.
Worn tier +1 stat, level 10+, 70 value. 10 variations.
Pristine tier +2 stats, level 25+, 140 value. 30 variations.
WARNING!!!
Applying new Survival setting of my mod to an old save will remove all atomic rings so be careful!
The Survival setting can be used on any difficulty level if you feel normal is to OP.
Rings are sold at Fallon's Basement in Diamond City, and many other traders across the Commonwealth.
Rings also drop in tons of places, cabinets, suitcases, etc..
No NPCs drops currently.
All rings have custom materials to craft at the vanilla armor workbench.
Random legendary rings spawn at clothing traders, trunks, and safes!
Rings support 33 total Legendary effects, 14 custom ring only effects!
New ring crafting mechanics and gem components in 1. 0. 8!
Scrap non-legendary pristine rings for materials used in making legendary pristine rings!
Crafted rings pull from a smaller, better list of legendary effects.
Recipes in the "Utility" tab of the chem workbench.
Stats are bound to the ring not the gem, so replacing the gem in a common ring will not change the stats.
I would love to add custom textures and models to my rings, but I'm not an artist.
Please send me a message if your interested in working with me on the art side of modding.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 970 endorsements and over 17k downloads.
- Adds a whole new gear slot with tiered rings, giving loot and crafting more depth.
- Custom legendary effects and material mods mean your rings can actually matter in combat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — might have compatibility issues with current game patches and DLC.
- Only adds rings, so if you're looking for a bigger overhaul this might feel too narrow.
For Fallout 4 players who want more loot variety and crafting depth without a full overhaul. If you enjoy collecting and customizing gear, this is a nice addition. Skip if you prefer gameplay changes beyond equipment.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an older mod, check if you have all DLCs installed, as some mods require them.
- Use a mod manager like Nexus Mods or Vortex to avoid manual file placement issues.
- Look for patches if you use other loot or crafting overhauls to prevent conflicts.
