Rings | deathandtaxes

Rings is a topic where everyone has an opinion. Well too bad they are all wrong. Before mod 8 I chose to go with the Elven Assault Rings because of two simple reasons. They are easy to get as they only cost 300 marks from the seal vendor and they accomplish their task. They provide one offense slot per ring and you can put Azure or Radiant gems in them to give you more crit or more power. Easy and simple. Now that mod 8 exists you want the Ring of rising power and the ring of brutality.

There exists the Personalized Adamant Ring of Piercing and Personalized Ring of Revitalization but you have to have level 25 jewel crafting to even make these. Are they worth it? For the Ring of piercing I'd say yes, but only because it offers you two gem slots which can potentially raise your ilevel, and offer you a bit more of whatever enchantment you choose to slot it with.

I get a lot of question concerning the new underdark rings. Are they worth it? In general for our DPS build I say YES!! There are 3 rings in particular that show some potential. The Ring of Brutality+5, the Ring of Rising Power+5, and the Ring of Rising Precision+5

The Ring of Brutality is interesting because every 30 seconds in battle you gain 4000 power. They are also ilevel 145. If you can get a level 4 or 5 of one of these its definitely worth it. But thats the problem. Actually getting these badboys will require hours of grinding and even then they may not drop. I personally have done about 150 edemo runs and gotten gold and I've never seen a legendary ring drop.

The rings of Rising Power and Rising Precision are also great! It gives you two offensive gem slots which will raise ilevel. It is the equivalent of 1350 power or crit gained and combined with a brutality ring we are talking about a 5k or more gain in power. Absolutely worth having...if you can get one.
