Some rings actually work in pairs, like the True Love’s Caress ring and the True Love’s Embrace Ring. Both rings can be obtained from skeletons in specific areas in the Shadow-Cursed Lands.

True Love's Caress Ring Location In Baldur's Gate 3

Baldur's Gate 3 players who are on the hunt for True Love's Caress should turn their attention to the cemetery that is situated between the House of Healing and Masons' Guild in the Shadow-Cursed Lands. For full clarity, these locations are to the north of the Reithwin Town Waypoint, and the ring can be found on a skeleton at coordinates X:-149 Y:42.

If a player is instead looking for True Love's Embrace, they should enter the House of Healing (to the west of the aforementioned cemetery) and navigate to coordinates X:-210 Y:-1. CRPG fans that travel to this position will find themselves in a bed-filled room, and the skeleton that is atop the mattress on the ground holds the ring.

True Love's Caress & True Love's Embrace Effect In Baldur's Gate 3

true love rings effect in baldurs gate 3

Players who read the tooltips for these two rings will be led to believe that the wearer of True Love's Caress will be able to cast Warding Bond on the wearer of True Love's Embrace once per Long Rest in Baldur's Gate 3. For the uninitiated, that Level 2 Abjuration spell allows a caster to give an ally resistance to all damage as well as +1 to AC and Saving Throws. There is a drawback to using Warding Bond, though, as all damage taken by the ally is also applied to the caster.

That said, the effect that is provided by the True Love's Caress and True Love's Embrace rings actually appears to be a modified version of Warding Bond called "Gentle Warding Bond." Unlike the standard spell, this variant does not grant bonus damage resistance, AC, and Saving Throws to the target, and it only causes the damage that the ally takes to be copied onto the caster. This makes these rings not particularly useful, though players who enjoy the lore and world-building in video games may find them interesting nonetheless.
