Ring of wealth - friend or foe?

Featured Replies

definitly a foe, dont ever use this thing. Buy an attack or strength ring or get it from the daggannoth kings and use it instead. Waaaaay better.

personally, i dont use a ring of wealth no longer. i got rid of my row about 2 weeks ago saying it was bad luck. since then, well, no d drops

 

 

 

but i do believe that not having a row increases the amount of rares u get from tt's. ever since i got rid of my row, i have gotten rares in 5 of the last 6 clue scrolls i have done :)

 

 

 

If I am not mistaking in some point Jagex said ring of wealth doesn't e effect clue. not getting a clue and not a clue reward.

 

True, it doesn't affect the drop rate of clues, treasure trails, or the barrows chest. It only affects "drop" rates (and I'm wondering whether or not it affects the champion scrolls :?: ).

 

 

 

Well, I find that the ring of wealth simply increases the chance of items dropping and possibly what drops.

 

I think in your case a "nothing drop" would be one of the worst drops, so the ROW should in fact try to bypass those nothing drops. The underlined part though... I'm not quite what to say about that, it's kind of generally just what the ROW is supposed to do :oops:

I did a trip at steel dragons without ring of wealth, and I noticed the difference in drops. That was my worse trip to steels ever...

 

Really? I've burned about 15k Chaos runes there and havn't even goten one drop with my ROW. Also, I've goten 4k kills at the FG's with a ROW and no luck. I've officially abandoned that cursed object, may it burn forever within the deepest pits of Mordor.

 

 

 

LOL! :lol:

so your going to stop using a ring of wealth because you got lucky without it, rather than believe jagex when they say it slightly increases the rare drop rate.... :?

Yep, Normally in a trip I get a lot of rune bars, a few axes, the rare large, and lots of other rune items.

 

 

 

Without ROW I was getting crap, I believe I only had one rune item (Axe), a clue and that's about it :\

The problem with these type of enquiries is that the drops are so rare anyway that it would take a massive study to work out the exact benefit of a ROW. I personally always wear mine because I don't think JaGex would release something which would damage your chances of getting a good drop so I don't really have anything to lose (except my ROW if I manage to get myself killed :D ).

I have had 2 dmed drops without ring. I find it is better to go without it because tho you might get a half key more each trip you are also getting like 400 runes arrows without ring.

If no one has said this yet, jagex mods CONFIRMED THAT THE ROW DOES NOT ! INCREASE RARE DROPS just rune drops etc.. no dragon drops :evil:

Ring of Weath does not work at all. I got dragon left half with ring of life from black demons 2 days ago on a slayer task. My brother has got d left half and 2 spears so far wtih ring of life.

i think its foe. I'm trading mine for another glory for when i get 44 rc and abyss. But maybe its just me. I think my best drop ever was half key

really i am not a beleaver in the ring of weath i have had a few and none of them ever get me anything good so i quit using them

I dont have a sig anymore =[

But I did manage to get every skill in the highscores

I wrote to customer service after reading the info from the KB on ring of wealth, I thought it worked like the 2 roulette wheel someone mentioned earlier, anywayz they replied:

 

 

 

Wearing the Ring of Wealth will increase your chances of getting a better drop from a monster. Note that the Ring of Wealth only effects rewards from monster drops, so things like treasure trail rewards and Barrows rewards that aren't monster drops won't be affected.

 

 

 

----------------------------------------------------------

 

 

 

Their reply doesn't help me at all -.-

 

I am still confused on how exactly the ring works... but anyways, I prefer the berserker ring nowadays

Just because you got lucky without RoW doesn't mean it doesn't work.

 

As in, your chance to get a good drop will increase, but it won't guarantee good drops. So ofcourse it works, why would they make a hoax ring, it would make little to no sense.

i never use my wealth

 

because if im wearing only junk but if i don't wera i already

 

got 2 d legs 1 left half 1 d med and 1 D2H

 

So i don 't use my wealth i hate it because i spend like 15k chaos on steels (with wealth) and no drop :(

sigbanksupportqd1.gif

Well the ring of stone has no known use, besides morphing you into rocks, which is a neat trick but is done much cheaper with a ring of Egg.
