    No replies yet? Jeez, I think the archer community is getting worse.

    Well, here's my question:

    Only having 22% critical with no rings, would it be better to have two Perfect Attendance vs. two Heavenly Lords? I started off with two Heavenly Lords, but obtained one Attendance Ring thinking it was better. Right now having the mix seems to work, but I would switch to two Heavenlys if that was better in the end. According to this guide, it would be, but I don't really know if the hp bonus and defense level amount to much.

    Pretty nice... here's some feedback:

    1) Does not factor in the contribution of accuracy to dps (though mobs have very low evasion).
    2) Does not look at effect on mellee dps (5.0 dps is alot of what archers look at for pve these days)
    3) Your stats on the Seal of Eternal Solitude are not maxed while the stats for all the other rings are maxed.
    4) The rings differ alot in refining potention (CoA ring refines for mres, Lunar ring has best pdef, rank ring cannot be refined at all).

    I don't know the Accuracy / Evasion formula. If there is one, I suppose I can make a de facto target or something. That looks to beyond for what this is.
    2) Does not look at effect on mellee dps (5.0 dps is alot of what archers look at for pve these days)

    My initial reaction to this suggestion was, simply, "No." .

    However, since you asked nicely, I will get around to doing this.
    3) Your stats on the Seal of Eternal Solitude are not maxed while the stats for all the other rings are maxed.

    Dang, I thought I fixed that. I'll get around to it.
    4) The rings differ alot in refining potention (CoA ring refines for mres, Lunar ring has best pdef, rank ring cannot be refined at all).

    I should add this in.


    My thanx for the suggestions, Lady Asterelle.

    Just adding two more possible contenders to the comparison.


    Sky Cover
    Gained from completing PQ3 Shadowtide at 95+
    First place in your class with yield 6 shattered crystals.
    6 shattered crystals = 1 crystal.
    25 crystals = 25% chance of successful craft
    50 crystals = 50% chance of successful craft
    100 crystals = 75% chance of successful craft
    200 crystals = 100% chance of successful craft


    Ring of Trauma
    Quite possibly the strongest ring, offensively and defensively. If you got an extra $250 left sitting around after getting R8 (during this sale) could always go R9 and get that thing and equip it in tandum with the R8 ring.

    If it works the same as the other rank rings, u probably have to turn in the rank 8 ring to get rank9. I.e. no tandum.
    If you've been bad, Lord I bet you have
    And you've not been hit by flying lead
    You'd better close your eyes and bow your head
    And wait for the ricochet.

    I believe I saw at least one person saying that you do not need to turn in the R8 ring to get R9.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.

    Yeah... I wonder how I failed it that bad.

    And now for something on-topic: why level 105 builds? I know it doesn't change much but wouldn't level 101 builds be better idea?

    Because at some point, someone is going to ask me to put a level 105 Ring on that list. I'd rather not have to redo all the builds over again.

    Those stats are wrong. From the in-game encyclopedia:

    25 crystals = 4% chance of successful craft
    50 crystals = 9% chance of successful craft
    100 crystals = 19% chance of successful craft
    200 crystals = 39% chance of successful craft

    I think you need to specify whether or not you PvP, before meaningful advice can be given to you.

    Also, even if the archer community is getting worse, it pales in comparison to the community within General Discussion.

    - Fixed Seal of Solitude. Damage values were actually correct for max stat ring, but link and Bonus value were incorrect.

    - Added two rings.

    Where can I find an accurate Refine Bonus chart, that shows the correct bonus depending on grade? 30 seconds of searching on the wiki and forums yielded nothing, and I don't trust pwdatabase.com .

    If you could please separate them by grade rather than by type, I'd appreciate it. Certain notes worth mentioning like the fact that rank rings don't refine (Don't know about rank 9 though, shouldn't be any different?). Attendance is g9, TT is g11 so are Heavenly Lord rings, CoA and Band are g12 and PQ are g15. So they'll refine for greater numbers as their grade increase (defense wise), while CoA ring will refine for magic defense. Just thought it was worth organizing like that

    I know it's (very) not related but what's your preference when it comes to rings? Crit, mag/phys defenses, phys attack, accuracy, stats? Or better said, what set of rings would you use under what circumstances (5.0, TW, PK). If you think it'd derail the thread too much, I'd love reading what you guys have to say on it and share my own experience :)

    Is the refinement from PWI Calculator taken from database too? I wouldn't know. But yeah that'd be extremely helpful to my last quetion.

    I am in a PvE server, not a PK fan, so just TW and PvE. I'm demon and can also hit 5.0 base.
    http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=6656a17dd46ad235 it's my current build unsharded and unrefined.

    Question is really, would there be a better combination for me (besides rank 9 and PQ3 ring. I could never afford/farm those) that would boost my survival in TW/PvE? I have been considering even getting pan gu tome and going back to sage with FC fists (and still hit 5.0 then), but love demon quickshot and stun arrow way too much by now :( Another option is getting a cube neck and use the OHT phys belt, stay demon but do get the FC fists. But then question would still remain, what rings would help my survival the most, while keeping a decent crit and accuracy addons on?

    I tried finding an old thread of defense numbers vs real damage reduction to see when it was better to shard with citrines over garnets/sapphires to help my case, but I can't seem to find it.
