Yup Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 A J Mod has told people that the ring of wealth doesn't actually help in my old clan.. Ever since that I stopped using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tintin113 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 The only real arguement about the Ring of Wealth is based on these criteria: 1.) What other ring you wear. 2.) What you're fighting. Basically, if you fight something that only drops one rare object and that isn't even very good, wearing a zerker will allow you to kill more of them and get a lot more average drops which will most likely add up to more than getting the rare object. However if you wore no ring rather than the ring of wealth, you would end up - in the long term - worse drops. However if you're fighting DKs, a RoW is proven to help, because the rare drops are worth so much more than the other drops, and each monster drops more than one type of decent rare drop - a ring each, an axe each, and a special item (for Prime and Supreme.) The RoW DOES increase your chance of getting a rare drop, but rare doesn't always mean expensive, so this may or may not be beneficial to you. RoW also does absolutely nothing to help you get better non-rare drops, and again, it only increases the probability, so in the end, it's down to luck anyway. Just because the RoW isn't as helpful - at all times - as perhaps, a zerker ring, it doesn't mean it's not doing it's job, it just means that another ring might do the job better.

XzJiiZzYX Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 it works in warriors guild, i got 5 rune defenders in under 1 min :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker2022 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 well....all I know is that when I wear one, I got tons of little things that add up vs. not wearing one. aka herbs armor, runes etc... When I don't wear one, I get more rare drops, whips dlegs, etc... I've gotten over 30 whip drops without one. So, I think the ring works on the little stuff (not rare to me, but rare to noobs). Not convinced about rares though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunli Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I thought I post a update on the ROW (ring of wealth).
