It won't. The ring adds chaos damage as percentage of physical damage, it doesn't convert physical to chaos.

When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch?
If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch.
Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart...

You can deal the same amount of Damage, with less Physical/Elemental in there, thus reducing Reflect damage.
I use a mings on a bloodrage crit dagger melee ranger. It gives me about 3k reflect safe dps and a load of chaos res to sustain bloodrage. I use the atziri flask too so I leech a bit off that chaos damage too. I like it, its not a big hit on life by itself but compared to a ring with life it can be a lot.


spec and gear if its of any interest

Spoiler









I have a 6L coil waiting when I get to standard so faster attacks would be the extra link and some shuffling of other gems and gear, Ill be dropping starkonjas for this



as an example of the life issue, if I swap my mings for this ring I gain 450 life



but usually I like the deeps.

its a bit over 20k dps double strike splash in the 5L, bit over 24k if I use the dagger below, but I think with a 20/20 faster attacks the binos should be fine and the life regen from it is nice. Need another 4 levels to finish off getting the life and crit nodes.



I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)
