Farmer Wren was so close to perfection she could feel it. Sure, she had a few dishes to cook and some items to craft (seriously, keep 2 pieces of marble on hand- you’ll thank me). But the golden clock was shining to the west and ostriches were chirping to the south- her farm was almost complete. All she needed was the Island Obelisk. And for that, Wren had to find one more dragon’s tooth. Her stingray pond failed to produce one, so she gathered supplies and caught the boat to Ginger Island. Wren was so anxious to go exploring, she left her burglar/slime ring at home, leaving the napalm ring on her hand.

It was tough in the volcano. The tiger slimes were particularly angry and the magma sparks so plentiful the air glowed. Finally, on floor 6, she saw it. The 10th and final dragons tooth. Soon, she would be one step closer to perfection. All that stood between her and her prize was a quivering tiger slime. Wren raised her sword high and slashed down, killing her enemy. Which, thanks to the napalm ring, caused It to explode, destroying nearby rocks and the coveted dragons tooth. She almost threw the napalm ring away there and then.

Do not underestimate the napalm ring.
That's too dramatic but you have the perfect narrative skills

I am an avid user and supporter of ring swapping though do it less now because of 1.5 and being in a late game farm.
Keep in mind this is the perspective of a player who loves the SC and excels at combat and slingshot as well as having near infinite money for bombs and eplosive ammo (which is so broken, even in 1.5).
The rings I use on pc in the mines and for causal wear are iridium band with luck and savage with luck. Some people opt for double iridium but I never do so unless in mid game without a better ring to combine. I agree with Cptldsilver on his point about the savage being really bad if you don't know how to use it but if you are an experienced player in a later-game farm it is a great ring to combine with.
The luck rings are also just way too good to pass up on, wearing them both and having optimal buffs (magic rock candy, gold star ginger ale) can net you a +9 luck buff which is mad and even with only a +6 buff (rings + gold lucky lunch), I found 10 prismatic shards and got to floor 183 without staricases.
I always carry two combined rings around anyway for nostalgia and for niche purposes, they are a napalm/slime charmer and hot java/burgler, they both go pretty heavily underused but used to be my main rings and are my go to for early-mid game.
I used to play a lot more mobile and have a good hilltop farm which I cavern dive quite often too, I have four rings and they are the burlger ring/napalm/iridium band/slime charmer. The first two I use for mining and the others just casual playing.
That's pretty much all I have to say without going out on a tangent about the rest of SC.
Good luck.

Farmer
Iridium + Napalm

Burlar + Lucky

I tried to break the mold, by wearing 2x Iridium + 2x Lucky, but the drops were hideous and mining noticeably slower... Especially when you are wearing Napalm and a Perfect Magic Quiver, a true mayhem ensues; the like of which not even bombs can match, time-wise.

Like rings that you use the most

In my case I get the iridium band combined with the glowstone ring or whatever it was called
In the other finger I put slime ring and the burglar ring
I almost forgot their names, so
, sorry if I said one wrong
Anyway what about you guys?
mine is iridium combined with slime charmer, and the other one is the attack(?) ring. maybe I will combine the attack rung with something else.
