Legacy league; Breach ring price check

hey guys,

needed some help pricing this in the current legacy league:


was trying to price check it on poe.trade, but couldn't find a good equivalent. seems like rings this good are pretty rare.

i did see a few non breach rings with similar stats run for about 1x, so i figure this has gotta be worth at least that much--if not 2x.

what's the word, guys?

It is a mediocre resist ring with some life.

Not very good, unless your res are uncapped outside of breaches?
Here's the problem: with breach rings you generally want stats that are useful when doubled. That is life, damage bonuses, etc. With resistances, you usually want to be capped even before the doubling, thus the doubling does nothing to them. (Except for when you have one of those fancy new items that scale with uncapped resistances).

Therefore besides the decent life roll, the ring doesn't really benefit from being a breach ring. I wouldn't price it much higher than similar rings on a more useful base type. There are MUCH better resist rings available for a few chaos (especially on a resist or two-stone base).
Id price check it against a normal rare ring with the same stats and then give it a small bump for being a breach and being lightning.

Its essentially life, all res, lightning res.

the str and leech are like little extras.


Its a stat cover ring, its got life and resist, it just caps you and you get the mandatory life roll. It doubles in a breach, so what do you get? overcaps your resist even further, and you get double the life, only the life there is doing something for you.

A rly good breach ring you want a strong dps ring, because doubling the dps stats doing something for you. Chaos resist is good, because u probably are not capped and chayula breach $$$ so getting like 25% chaos res that will become 50% in the breach is worth while. You are res capped on lightning, and then it doubles and youre still res capped on lightning, its meaningless.


The fact that it is lightning means that someone using the esh amulet where light res = crit chance might value that, it might sell off the back of that because they care about overcap lightning for dps, but thats quite niche and I dont think that pushes a heavy price on it, that angle might add a few chaos on the price, but not like 30+ chaos on top of the price of a rare ring with same stats.
I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)
