Tiered Rings Rebalance

#21

waddup its ya boi
ok ok lets lay out facts
UBHP is only good UB ring, unless u are @PRCSakura
everything else gets 100% outclassed, bar maybe UBSpeed
UBVit-> Revenant Ring, Sac 1 vit for 50 hp and 3 att, i will take that trade
UBWis-> Geb’s Ring wipes the floor with this
UBDef->Kinda useless as its less survivability than UBHP (im sorry prc)
UBAtt/UBDex-> Both solid dps rings, both beaten by crown, although a lot rarer, and crown gives hp too
UBMP-> I would only ever use on assassin, and sourcestone better.

Like @hatedfury states, they are not endgame rings
yet they drop from endgame dungeons
might as well make em stronger, and they shouldnt be jack shit just b/c they are tiered/tradable. Wis rings would only ever be used on sorc/priest (Maybe), so if ubwis gave 20 wis i might use, but more likely still go for omni/bloodshed ring etc
I think 16-18 is better tho, b/c 20 is a bit high
but yeah 10 is kinda low

#22

outclassed by ring of pure wishes I think

Even gemstone is better

#23

forgot pure wishes, ur absolutely right, and yeah ik gemstone better but sourcestone is hot mk

#24

hi my name is PRCSakura, and no its not because of naruto.

But seriously I really adhere to sakura’s mentality about unbound rings. Each have a distinct purpose, and you can easily have 2 or 3 as swapouts because of their tradability.

#25

Not to mention they are often sold as FP, making them quite cheap (as little as 1 Def equivalent).

#26

I disagree about 16-18. Those numbers do feel kinda lacking still. Think of UB rings as being a condensed version of any UT ring to just 1 stat.
You take every stat and add it together to get the amount (or divide by 10 if HP/MP and then add it).
20 would not only be 200 divided by 10, thus being in line with the new HP/MP ring but it would also offer a much more useful boost, as I said previously.
Also, knowing that UT rings usually stay around 20-25 (already above UB), that would just make UB rings even worse in comparison (reducing from 20 to 16-18).
Effectiveness would also be reduced, making them less appealing overall.
Even with this buff to the rings I’m positive a good portion of people still wouldn’t use them as much as one would expect. They would be a lot more used than now that’s for sure but not as much as a UBHP or UTs.
I personally would use UBWIS/ATT/DEX/VIT/DEF/SPD in more occasions (with +20) but probably not as a main ring, unless I was just chilling in the realm killing some gods or doing non-endgame dungeons. In endgame they would probably just serve as a swapout for certain occasions so I don’t see a reason to make them weaker than that.

325 FP for 1 Def, not bad. Its like an inc, but cheaper.

#28

This is why I used all of my pots to buy bunch of them instead of UBHP/Decas.

#29

wha- why? we dont usually buy ubhp/decas for FP.

#30

No not that. I could have used those pots to buy UBHP/Deca. Meaning, people would advice me: “Why you spent pots on those trash rings? Go buy UBHP/Deca instead.”

#31

One could never enough non-HP UB rings!

I do have to question the ubwis. Why have those when Geb Ring is only slightly more expensive and much better?

#33

Woah really? Well-

WHAT IS THAT?! WHY?

The only explanation i see is you need to feed low level pets.

#34

No I don’t. I bought them so they don’t get fed. I use them.

#35

PRCSakura, Protector of unbound rings

but why that much ub rings tho? do you die that much?

#36

Well whenever I see ppl selling them for cheap price, I know others will buy it as FP. So I take that advantage.

#37

why though?

are you buying them solely because you don’t want them to be fed?

#38

Yep.

#39

ok then

you do you, i guess

I just consider UB rings as “poor man’s” rings. It’s already been covered multiple times, but scarcity plays a role in what rings I choose. I still have yet to get many of the end-game rings from places like Shatters, LH, or Void (I did find the banner in O3 once), so I’m usually either wearing stuff I find in the lower tiered dungeons (like the tomb), st rings with their respective sets, or I buy/find a UB ring!

You won’t catch me with a UB Def, Wis, and probably not Att, but I’ll happily carry around a UB Dex, Spd, HP, and MP, and possibly even a Vit, if I find one naturally. It’s just a matter of circumstance. I do the same with my other equipment as well.
