The ring of the elements is a utility ring from Guardians of the Rift, bought from its reward shop for 400 abyssal pearls. It has no requirements and zero combat bonuses — instead it teleports you next to the four elemental Runecrafting altars (air, water, earth, fire) and counts as warm clothing at Wintertodt. The uncharged ring is the only tradeable version.
Equipment bonuses
The ring of the elements is a pure utility item: every combat bonus is 0 — no attack, defence, strength, magic damage or prayer — and there are no level requirements to wear it.
Nothing in the bonus table is the point of this ring; you equip it for the teleports to the elemental altars and the Wintertodt warm-clothing tick, never for stats.

How to get the ring of the elements
The ring of the elements is bought from the Guardians of the Rift reward shop (Temple Supplies) for 400 abyssal pearls — the points you bank from completing rounds of that Runecrafting minigame. It is not a drop and has no level requirement to buy or wear.
Another Guardians of the Rift reward is the abyssal lantern, a shield-slot item you light with six logs to gain Runecrafting benefits while it is worn.
The ring comes uncharged, and the uncharged version is the only tradeable form. Once you charge it, it becomes untradeable. You can browse other gear on the OSRS items hub.
Charging and teleporting with the ring
The ring of the elements does not have a special attack. Its function is teleportation: when charged, rubbing or using the worn options sends you next to one of the four elemental Runecrafting altars — south of the Air Altar, west of the Water Altar, west of the Earth Altar, or north of the Fire Altar — plus a Last Destination shortcut. This makes it a handy travel tool for an OSRS Runecraft trip.
You charge it by using one each of an air, earth, fire and water rune plus one law rune on the ring; each set of five runes is one teleport charge, and the ring holds up to 10,000 charges. Charges are tracked per player, so a second ring shows the same count. You can recover the stored runes any time using the right-click "Uncharge" option while at almost any bank. Regardless of charge, the ring also counts as a piece of warm clothing at Wintertodt.
