Ring of Kinship Customization?

[stealthchris117]

I was hoping to get some help in selecting what I should level up on my ring of kinship customization. I have never level any of them up.

 

I primarily use magic as I have a celestial catalytic staff.

I also gather from most nodes tier 8+ that is.

I also almost always do dungoneering solo.

 

I was thinking about possibly doing the Skilling Gatherer because of my gathering nature. But wasn't sure if I should do one of the Magic ones. I figured with a level 99 weapon increased accuracy wouldn't make much of a different, but please let me know if I am mistaken.

 

Thanks!

Actually magic accuracy is quite useful (at least from what I can see) because the triangle is quite strictly enforced so that higher level mobs you may have accuracy issues even with celestial catalytic. And the magic accuracy bonus on the ring is massive compared to the other two styles.

 

However I am no dg expert, so I could be wrong on this one.

[stealthchris117]

That is a good point. I wasn't thinking about high level ranged based enemies being extremely resistant to my magic attacks. Perhaps I will go with Magic Accuracy.

 

Does anyone else out there have any insight? I would like to ensure I'm spending my tokens wisely as Dungeoneering is one of my least favorite skills and is actually my lowest level skill so I don't have a lot of extra tokens normally.

 

Thanks!

If possible, you should always carry at least 2 styles of combat.

 

Ranged would be best and then it would be w/e other style you prefer, in your case mage.

I have a good bow and arrows bond as well actually as I used to use range. So I can do Range and Magic :-)

Is Range superior to Magic?

 

And finally if I use both range and magic now I'm really not sure which to level up on the ring.

[Miss Lioness]

In dungeoneering Ranged is superior to magic (considering same tier), with SSB > Hex

 

Altho I prefer Hex for added abilities and quicker downfall of mages.

 

Give priority to ranged. Accuracy > Damage

That is good to know, thank you. I will start using both range and magic then. I think primarily magic until I get a top tier bow I think my current bow is level 90 not 99.

And I will level my ring up on range as soon as I start using it as my primary.

 

I have a few other questions about dungeoneering, but I'm getting a bit off my original topic now:

 

1. Should I get a silk hood? I've never found one in all my dungeoneering thus far. Also if the answer is yes, is there a way to "farm" one?

2. What armor should I bind? If my primary is range I'm guessing the range body and the hood if/when I get one?

 

Currently I have a lot of random stuff bound and I use a primal helm and a lvl 90 mage top. (no other mage gear, but I do have a lvl 90 range top as well which I can switch to)

 

Thanks!

I myself have found it particularly useful on the middle themes. Not so much on Occults/Warped. A body part might be more useful if you are limited to 3 binds.

 

You would want to have the 2 combats with you at all time, besides that see above :)!

The best way to farm something in dungeoneering is to unlock either hard mode yourself, or tag along someone who unlocked hard mode and is doing said floors.

 

Note: Hard Mode entails that all rooms are GD and you cannot teleport out of the Boss Room.

Thanks Miss Lioness!

 

I will go with Magic and Range and use a body piece as my 3rd bind until I can get a silk hood and then switch between the two as I learn when each is best.

For my ring I'll start putting points into range accuracy as I can, now I just need to get an SSB or Hexhunter |^_^|

 

I much appreciate the help, since I've never been a huge fan of dungeoneering I have just been stumbling my way through.

[Miss Lioness]

Not a problem at all :)! Good luck on your dungeoneering journeys!

As a note, Range becomes the absolute best when you can complete some of the dungeoneering tasks and get a secondary role for the ring. Range is the only class with the possibility to add both accuracy and damage this way. And as things haven't changed afaik, Mage damage should still be sadly capped at Lvl 90.

 

Also, with helms now affecting accuracy, it might not be a good idea to use mismatching styles of one.

 

As for ssh, I used one earlier in dg but switched to a blood necklace as soon as I got one. Most of my dg was done that way and after I got 120 and added the hood back, I forgot just how nice it can be. Puzzle rooms get easier as you don't always have to time the menu selection between attacks and in general it makes a lot of rooms a bit of a joke.
