Aug 27 Beta Poll (0.9.1) - Rings

Basalt Band for my Marauder, the 80 accuracy rating give me a lot more DPS than 1-5 fire damage or 1-5 lighting damage.

Life Leech is a good option as well.

Basalt Bands. Need that accuracy yo'

Exactly.

I fully realize that your choice of ring will change with class and/or level. The point of the poll is to get a broad feel for ring usage and I think it's doing that quite well. The other point of the poll is to spark some a discussion on a topic that hasn't received much feedback.

voted for lifeleech

for the moment they are good, but i have seen 2%ll as an additional mod on one of those accuracy rings.
But their maxcharlvl seems to be lvl12.
Incase i´m able to craft a ias with +2%ll, i will switch for sure.

The spell damage ring I have is called a Fury stone. Havent seen a Power stone yet...

Is 20% spell damage the max for the ring?

The res rings are pretty pointless. I know the most interesting thing about jewelery is the level of the item as it dictates what mods you get, but if you're crafting, no one is gonna care too much about 8% fire res.

For the fire/cold damage rings. They're cool in normal, but beyond that they're fairly pointless right? I know they allow you to crit with elemental damage but (and please correct me if I'm wrong) doesn't the effect of the crit differ based on how much damage of that element you're doing? For instance, if I crit with fire damage and a ring that does 1-2 fire damage is my only source, doesn't that mean the burning damage they endure won't be very much?

I'm not saying all implicit mods on jewelry need to stay relevant throughout all difficulties. But if they don't, they're needs to be more rings in game, which I'm sure there will be.

I may have made a mistake. Can you confirm and I'll fix it.

Leech rings due to scaling. Basalt is great early game though, but later on 70 accuracy isn't doing a whole lot for you.

I might have to give the edge to Life Leech over mana because I'm not sure if 2% LL can spawn on a Gemmed Band, but I do know 1% ML can spawn on a LL ring ( <3 my dual leech rare ring).

Yes it's a fury stone - I gave you the wrong name initially but corrected myself shortly after

Arent you missing some, like:

% to rarity/quantity
Increased attack speed
Faster cast rate

At the moment with my ranger ias and % to rarity is the prefered ones :)

I don't think there's an IAS ring (or amulet), is there? (and the increased cast rate and item rarity and quantity are amulets not rings)
There should be, but as a level 53, I've never seen one (or heard about it until now)

Personally I think that the order the rings and necklaces appear are bad. Some mods also need to be improved. +critical rating for spells should be +critical rating for all damage in my opinion — what's with so many mods (not just the innate ones) helping spells but not attacks? it seems really unfair.
