>Anything else you find relevent<

I am mostly directing this towards "builds that melee" be it a straight-up melee, battle-cleric/bard, w/e.

Details and variations depending on build accepted.

I'd rate the healing amp above +2 exceptional con due to the epic Bracers of claw providing the same.

[Uska]

Out of those the healing and the con me I use holy and shocking burst but I am a monk

Not the one in the sig. I have
Ots of monks love the class

Rating:
Healing Amp
+2 str
+2 con

I get much more benefit out of the healing amp than I would out of an extra +2 str, and (as pointed out above) the +2 con is available elsewhere. This is of course subjective; the character in question is warforged, so every bit of healing amp helps immensely.

Thinking about it some more and I world have to agree 100% (or is that 120%?) WF or not.

Making healers job easier greater than the +1 to hit/1-2 damage

[Kourier]

20% healing,
+2 con,
+2 strength.

DoS paladin tank with no claw set.

[Teharahma]

+2 STR
+20% Amp
+2 CON

Con goes on EClaw
And 20% amp goes on DT, chances are, I'm likely to get a ring I want sooner then a Red Scale armor.

Thanks for the input folks and feel free to keep it coming.

I have *never* put the healing amp on a TOD ring. But I started thinking about it today, and the more and more I think about, the more I think it would be a much better idea for at least two of the toons under consideration.

@Uska - yeah... not talking about a monk for sure, the benefits of that huge of a DPS jump are non-negotiable.

+2 Str vs +2 Con has always been my argument for battle bards / clerics who need devotion on their other ToD ring for healing. I have gone both ways on it in the past <giggity>.

The more and more I think about it, though, (assuming I don't have healing amp on DT) the healing amp just seems better and better if I make the defensive choice.

Now, I still think making the defensive choice vs. the added DPS is a rough one that almost has to be determined on a per toon basis. In this, my bards is where the decision is falling the hardest. But at least I have some more to think about ^^

[LeLoric]

+2 int
+2 cha

Who needs melee anyways.

Alive @ -2 STR is greater DPS than dead @ +2 STR.

99% of my grouping is done with a WF wizard, so healing amp isn't so useful. My fleshy melees however will be taking healing Amp first.
