A couple weeks ago, Jagex updated RoL to include:

 

The ring of life has had its behaviour slightly modified. It will now remove any poison that you may have been affected with as well as its usual effects.

 

How exactly does it work? Hasn't cured me of any poison >_<.

Say you're out PKing and find yourself in a 1 on 1. The opponent uses the typical DDS + main weapon, and gets you poisoned. You happen to have a life ring, and get saved by it's teleport.

 

Now that it's updated, when it teleports you (and therefore turns into dust or whatever the chat box says) it will rid you of your poison, therefore actually saving your life instead of post poning your death in that kind of scenario.

 

 

 

Very helpful, I almost died after a TT mage got me to low hp and poisoned me after getting teleported by my ROL, and then realising the poison was still hitting (that was quite a while ago, had 3M of gear on me :P ).

 

 

 

(The poison will only be cured when the ROL automaticly activates, which is where it had you confused I think :wink: )

Saved me many times now when my "internet" is acting up (I train ranged at ape atoll) So I get away with 1-5 hits without that 1-4 poison damage :D .

Oooh thanks.

 

 

 

I thought it would cure you of poison regardless of HP. :XD:
