Does the R9 ring, when upgraded at the forges, add a set bonus?

    "Item is a part of a complect "Blood Drinker""

    But I think that`s not for our version, since the Blood Drinker is China`s r9 3rd recast weapon + ring set or smth,

    If I understand correctly, Blood Drinker is not available in the US.

    The ring forms a complect with items we don't have. In the cited example, the 3rd cast boots are Hegemony boots, not Omen: Hegemony which we have. Note the 3 unprintable characters before the Hegemony that we don't have. That's not us.

    So no, the ring forms no complect (set bonus) with anything in the US.

    It DOES however give you a ring which can be magnificently refined to give both physical and elemental defense.

    Thanks. This is why I asked. I wasn't wanting to go by the websites information. From the looks of it, it looks like it adds a set bonus of -0.05 int.

    This is the one I was looking at.

    This is the barbs set, which to me shows the added ring set bonus. i just wasn't sure if it was true, or if someone that has full s3 + the upgraded ring got a bonus or not. but then again, it also says Blood Drinker, which is not on our server.

    I'm just curious cuz I've been full s3 for a while and have been hesitant to upgrade the ring. I already upgraded my tome, and was working on my Sky Cover, or should I go with the R9 ring first? That's why I wanted to find out about if there was a set bonus, cuz then I would go with the R9 ring first and save the Sky Cover for later.
