Ring Around the Cozy

TGIF, everyone! We’re approaching a new weekend of glorious gaming, and we thought this was the perfect blog post opportunity to share one of our favorite new, affordable DnD game accessories with thee. So, places everyone, places!

The 3DRPG team adores helpful DnD accessories…like, we seriously can’t get enough of ’em. Today, we’re going to show off some feel-good DnD miniatures condition rings so everyone at the table can quickly tell who has what buff or ailment, which ultimately makes combat run more smoothly and efficiently.

Before we share these wonderful DnD accessories, let’s clear the air. Yes, we could 100% 3D-print similiar condition rings for ourselves. However, there is only so much time in the day, guys and gals. We have to pick our spots. We are already subscribed to countless Patreons and have our 3D printers running constantly. We also have to paint everything that comes out of said 3D printers. Hence, we would rather make a couple of Amazon clicks and have this product show up at our door while continuing to attack our “Pile of Opportunity.” 😉

Enter Lynx and their absolutely fabulous DnD Miniatures Condition Markers set. This terrific TTRPG accessory includes 96 Rings in various vibrant colors to Track 24 different status and spell effects. They randomly showed up in our Instagram RPG feed, and we simply couldn’t resist the click.

Each RPG miniature condition ring comes in this sturdy, portable case. There are four rings per effect, and each one comes in its own distinctive color. DM Ben assigns minor game assistance duties to each person at the table. For example, one player tracks initiative, another acts as the banker, another helps look up rules clarifications, another puts numerical markers on duplicate monsters, yet another tracks each round, and then we have someone who places the corresponding condition effects on each miniature, friend or foe.

One of the big reasons we love these Lynx Miniatures Condition Markers so darn much is that we simply forget which character or monster has what effect(s) on them. Losing track of those conditions can make a dramatic difference during combat. Not only that, forgetting these effects just knocks the overall fun meter down a hefty notch. Effects are crazy fun, but not when everyone forgets who has what.

And here’s our favorite product trait – they’re made of silicone-ish material, which makes them super squeezable and irresistibly squishy. Seriously, we could just palm these all day like a miniature stress ball. They feel so darn good in your hand (especially verse rigid filament).

Here are a few notable product characteristics. The rings are readable from any angle, which is great when players are situated around all sides of your game table. The effect letter is white and contrasted against a solid ring color, so no squinting necessary. The lettering is also printed on both sides of the ring. You even get two “wildcard rings” which are named physical & magical effect, so those rings can cover any other sort of home-brewed or different game edition effect. Seriously, you can tell these DnD condition markers were made by gamers, for gamers. #love

We’ll leave you with one other tip. With an inside dimension of 1 inch, these condition markers fit exactly over the base of standard 25mm miniatures. We appreciate their meticulous design specs, but we actually prefer to put the rings on our RPG minis as if someone had just thrown them a life ring from a rescue boat. Hooking them on your miniature makes it much easier to quickly move them from one d20 square to another.

You can purchase a box on Amazon for the reasonable price of $37.95, with free shipping available to Prime members. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Until next time!
