Ah...The wonderful smell of flames first thing in the morning....Anyways...I can see how this ring could be very useful for a couple of reasons.One...While there is alot of Cha gear out there for chanters and bards,not much has int.Second..That with the new augments,you can add int,cha,mana,hps or a combination of them.Third...for those of us that merely want the best deal on things,speccially trade skill items...an interchangeable +10 cha item would be wonderful. With that my Cha with cha gear would be 176,224 with chanter buffs.Would it be worth it to me? probably go in the bag with teh rest of my CHA gear....tho it is almost an improvement over what i have.(ring of sand) but im doing luggald flesh ring tonight anyways..so dont need it anymore.but prior to today it would have been an upgrade.

And i only recently joined a teir two guild..like last week.

And i managed to get pretty nice gear.....granted i play alot so thats part of it
Risk vs. Reward

I can agree with you on the flames that we all see related to items. Everyone judges items as if they are level 65 so why on earth would they ever want item B when they already have item A?

That being said, this ring is the result of ahigh level quest (post level 50). At that level the reward should fit the risk. There are a lot of items out there that have charisma bonuses and you can get them much easier. Not to flame this item but in my opinion the risk greatly out ways the reward.
Hp/Mana better

Nice Int and Cha but no mana or HP which is crucial at higher lvl game. About Cha being important...well yes and no. For expample would I use this ring instead of a hp/mana ring? I would take the HP/mana anyday. I mean int doesn't give that much mana anyway but most gear has int on it anyway.

Btw it's no worth having max int for a chanter since you can cast int buff on yourself. So replace int gear with hp/mana gear. so having like 235 int just fine for a chanter.

Just remember that 235 will only really work until you get to the high end game... stats can go well above 255 once you get past 60 and into AA stats and such ;)

am I the only person that keeps with them a bag of different items for different situations? This ring isnt all that great for a 50+ enc to wear as standard gear, if it had some hp's it'd be alot nicer, BUT that doesnt mean it has no use. There is a cha check on a failed pacify to determine if you get aggro or not, more cha helps for that. it also has 10svD which might come in handy. Besides the fact that some people enjoy questing for their chars, 8P

For something that suggests a 55 to get it, this ring hardly seems like something such a high-level player would want.

Apparently you don't play a chanter do you? Wouldn't be a bad item for a bard either. It wouldn't be nearly as beneficial to any other class but it's not a bad item. I plan to try it for my chanter.
#REDACTED, Posted: May 11 2003 at 12:25 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Goldspider time to leave the Carebear server (blue server) and play on a pvp. I really, really, really get tired of you Monty Hall,Cry baby, Girly Man, 'Awwww this gear blows', boo hoo types slaming good gear. HAD you chosen to play on a server with RISK ! ( PvP server ) The REWARD would be noticed. Sad to say your just spoiled. Maybe EQ will put out a custom LOOT hot key so you lil babys can set stats to your satisfaction. I am sure the price will be reasonable. Oh wait they have that already only $25 Bucks a month :)

You assume too much. Just because someone plays on a blue server now doesn't mean they play on one exclusively, or have always been there. Your "preaching" is cute, but your words of "wisdom" are going unheard.
#REDACTED, Posted: Sep 09 2003 at 10:46 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I Assume nothing Rhyoss. NO ONE and I MEAN NO ONE playing on my server ( #1 on many levels ) Rallos Zek would say this item " SUCKS." Yes some uber toons might have better NO DROP rings and pass on the quest. ANYONE without a NO DROP ring would like to have one on a PvP server. This is FACT.

When you play on Discord, then I'll be impressed.
#animekenji, Posted: Mar 08 2003 at 11:13 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I have to agree about this being a bad item. If you have a 55+ Enchanter, you probably have (or at least you SHOULD have) already maxed both INT and CHA long ago, or at least have better than items than this in both your finger slots already.
RE: Why Bother?

Maxed Intelligence AND Charisma long ago? I think not. I have a 57 chanter who has some very nice gear, and some of his gear pretty much goes with the typical cha + int. format. The problem is, most good loot doesn't have both. Such as, I'm wearing the cloak of greater pernicity simply because it has 25 charisma. No int. on that. I'm also wearing rings and earrings with no charisma, but int.... My stats self buffed sit at 255 int. and 245 charisma. Mind you, you don't get the +50 charisma buff until level 56. You also can't get your GM Jewelcraft trophy until you've made a fairly substantial amount of money for obvious reasons. That will give you 50 more charisma. When I finally get it, yes, both stats will be maxed, but I don't imagine I'll have that done until 60+. My point is that you are wrong in your assumption that all enchanters should have both stats LONG before 55. BTW, when my friends heard what my stats were they were floored to find out they were so good at level 57. Many are in a top 5 guild on my server, and that kind of reaction from players like that brings more attention to the fact that you need to think before you post. Finally, the ring is not bad. Worth the time if you picked up the quest piece on a raid anyway. Doesn't have mana and HP's, but neither does my offhand ring I'd replace it with.

Here is the problem with that statement. My characters are only mildly twinked. Its hard to max your stats out when your getting all of your equipment yourself.

Not everyone has 60+ toons to run around and get the best for their alt

Not that I'm knocking your information but I have a question...
Where do you people get this information? from what I gather, no-one at VI will willingly submit detailed, mathematical information concerning the ratios and percentages of skill versus success on spell effects.

Do you get this info from other players? Then take into consideration lag (which effects haste, etc) human error (theres something this game has TONS of) and the nearly staggering data of randomness. Now...the only way I can figure you get this info is either A.) you work for Verant, therefore need to have your head examined. B.) you tortured a Verant programmer (where I'd be happy to give you a medal) C.) you are relying on second, third or even fourth-hand information (which makes you just a parrot) or D.) you have spent lots of time trying to figure out this stuff all by yourself. In which case, either you are a veritable genious (spelling), extreamely lucky if you're actually correct, or you get off on telling people information which you have NO idea about and think that if you spout off some random equation yu may just inmpress someone....not.

if you're in the torturing / genious category, I bow to your superiority to my unworthy self. If you are in the others....well...you get the idea.

Nukchoo and any other Chanter that decides he/she wants this (or any item)..go for it. If you earned it, be proud of it.

How about the guy that has played 65 levels and gotten 71 aa's opinion...Cha does effect mez landing, charm landing and pacify getting aggroed.
I wish i knew what would make charm last longer more often because i feel like i wasted my points on total domination sometimes.

on the original point of this post...this is crap, alot of chanters I know have better...I personally wear valor rings which don't have any cha at all. but even before that i had a shadel bandit ring and a velium fire wedding ring

try lower the MR of a mob you're charming. It appears that the mobs get a check (most likely every tick) against breaking your charm spell, that check of course is against MR and I'm sure other factors (AAs, perhaps cha?). An easy test is to charm a highly MR mob and you'll find your charm won't last long. Pick a mob that isn't really MR and you'll see a big difference.

Well Said!
#REDACTED, Posted: Mar 08 2003 at 8:06 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) apparently you don´t play a high lvl enchanter do you ? it´s a bad item for a bard too. it´s not a beneficial item to anyone other class either because yes it´s a bad item. i hope you change your mind about trying it for your chanter.
RE: Why Bother?

Why are you telling someone who said it is something they will be trying for not to?? Not everyone who plays this game has hours on end to dedicate to the acquisition of high end gear. Nor are they all in high tiered guilds for that matter. If the person says it is something they would want well then they probably need it. Luckily there are people more insightful than yourself who design the game that make contingencies for those who are not very "high end" but have high level characters....

High-end gear? Surely you jest...a smart Chanter would wear a Velium Fire Wedding Ring over this. That would at least be useful.
Kill
