Tower of Despair Ring Crafting confirmed effects?

**Shade** · 09-19-2009, 01:02 PM

So what has been actually confirmed yet (not guessed based on GS weapon recipes)

What I've seen so far:
Damage (Material - Dominon)) : Like tier2 GS wep so far, but only works for monks, except pos = holy burst, not PG burst, and neg probably unholy burst.
Seen a shocking burst ring

Healing Amp/Elem Absorp (Material -Oposition)
Healing amp, 20%
Absorption: 15%?

Abilities: (material/ethereal - escalation, assumed like tier3 GS wep)
Only seen +2 str so far, think it was negative - material.

Spell Damage? (Etheral - Dominion)
None confirmed so far? Guessed at Greater VI..
Hoping these are better then guessed at.

AC (Ethereal - Oposition)
+2 Insight Bonus Confirmed

thx.. that kind of sucks tho. Already have 2 other slots with the +20% heal amp and it doesn't stack meh. I'd actually prefer +10% as thats only available in 1 other slot. (ignoring weapons)

Hopefully the caster ones aren't totally lame, tho I'd guess they are.

On my planner I just copied the tier 2 weapon effects (because it was the simplest copy/paste I could do from my Shroud crafting planner), and modified as follows:
- Stat bonuses become +2. I haven't seen them confirmed for all stats, but I've see a few different ones (can't tell for sure which, at least Str and Dex I believe), and I think it's safe to assume they all work (though of course I may be wrong, hehe)
- Healing amp is 20%, Insight AC is +2 (seen screenshots for those)
- I've marked all other effects as unconfirmed because I haven't seen screenshots. I read that good burst was replaced by holy burst, so I also changed evil burst into unholy burst, but that's a wild guess. I'm not aware of anyone sharing results for energy absorption and spell boosts.

That shocking burst ring you saw, do you know what the stacking rules are by any chance? (with shock / shocking burst on handwraps).

Another tool is the very interresting spreadsheet by Inkblack and here's the link: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?k...Yg&output=html

positive material dominion produces holy burst instead of good burst.

I am, shortly, going to test a cold absorption effect and will post ss of both after I have done so.

The insight ritual (is that ethereal opposition?) produces +2 insight ac, theres a screenshot by thriand of it somewhere.

As far as I know, only ethereal dominion and material opposition still have to be tested (devotion/combustion effects, and absorption effects)

Don't have a monk to test my self but dev post said this (Eladrin iirc):
Standard stacking rules.. Same as like with arrows as in, flame bow + flame arrows = no stack.

So shocking burst handwraps + shocking burst ring = no stack
Holy burst handwraps + shocking burst ring = works ok
Holy handwraps + Holy burst ring = I think works?

Maybe someone can dig up the post by Eladrin, was fairly recent.

+2 charisma, positive shard.

Finger necklace and Dragontouched can both give +10% amp but for most people it would have been more useful.

Finger necklace is a "fleshmaker" effect, and stacks with everything else in game at this time.

While Eladrin said it would work (holy + holy burst, but not holy burst + holy burst), those who tested (on beta) said that holy handwraps and the holy burst ring effect did not stack. Not sure if has been fixed.

20% healing amp sucks as it wont stack with the hound bracers. Combined with the fact that +6 STR seems to be on about half the rings those bracers are absolutely useless now and makes these rings only a minor upgrade at best.

Bracers would only become useless if there was no other better ring effects to go for..

+2 str and con rings + wearing the leviks bracers is obviously preferable and my plan atm. Also the +20% threat is nice for a tank, especially on the bracers + armor set, letting you go THF or TWF and maintain the set.

Don't think they thought this out much. For the highest lvl raid in the game the raidloot is ok, but the customization seems rather boring given so few useful options to a already well geared character.

+2 cha Air

**Junts** · 09-20-2009, 08:06 PM

You just can't double up exactly; shock burst w/ shock burst handwraps wont work, holy burst w holy burst handwraps wont work (the affects dont stack, you only get one edition) but shock+ shocking burst or holy+holy burst works fine

**Junts** · 09-20-2009, 10:38 PM

confirmed: elemental absorptions are tier 2 (15%), I used a trash backup ring to make a cold absorp.

**ariel7** · 09-20-2009, 11:42 PM

I believe I did AEM on my ring for +2 dex.

Thanks for sharing, I removed the 'unconfirmed' message from my planner
