Legendary ring +1 +1 +1 +1 damage lvl 6 item

It's sort of funny because I stumbled on to the advantage of upgrading low level items to make a fashion statement. I created my first ranger, a female avatar, when the class was introduced two years ago. After a short while I got to level 11 and crafted an extro (purple) cap but when I put it on her hair disappeared.

I still had my level 3 extro linen mask so I decided to check out the statements that used to be at the bottom of gear, "upgrade by smith" and "upgrade by magic." To my surprise the stats of the enchantments were better than the cap when upgraded.

So next I went back to Darb/Grimm and crafted a legendary mask. As I continued level I kept crafting and comparing other higher level head gear. The further I got the better the split in the enchants and you could still see her flowing golden locks with the linen mask

Then I started experimenting with other gear. It was always the same, the upped LL gear had better stats. One of my standard upgrades became the level 1 Alan's shield for my DK's. It had a block rate that beat just about everything (remember that max block rates used to be lower, and fixed at 20/30/40% tiered by level.) This upgrade is no longer that good since they raised the cost of upgrading off hand items and better shields can be crafted at endgame level 45. But it still works good at low to mid levels.

Also I began to focus more building offense with left side gear. This became a neat trick in PvP since my toons looked liked everyone else but were much stronger. Keep in mind gems above polished grade did not exist. Even after they were introduced it was a while before players started going crazy with them.

By the summer of 2012 I had many accounts (used to be only one character per account) But as _Baragain_ pointed out, upgrading at the time was an anders deal. I do have a fixed recreation/entertainment budget (and other interests besides this game.) so these newer toons were mostly level appropriate gear just like most players.

I did want to find a counter to the gems craze. So I took a couple of DK's that were to be dedicated arena players with all low level gear. Not wanting to spend a lot of money neither has leveled up very fast (the first is lvl 33, the second lvl 17) since they have spent most of their time low level farming for anders and these days also melts for GoP. I discovered that it was cheaper to do this (even with anders) than to buy gems above radiants. Of course I am not one of those players that has to beat everybody or win every match. But these are still some very strong toons with a good chance of winning when they step into the arena.

In case any of my Tegan friends are wondering why they have not seen these guys lately it is because I have taken a break from PvP since the end of this past summer for a variety of reasons. But I have not taken a break from working on these toons and improving them almost every day

Anyway since the last couple of posts mentioned my upgrading I thought I would ramble on a bit about how all this came to be came to be... just because I wanted to see the hair on my Ranger.

Luck be with ye,
Mikey,

You like that Ring?

 

translate values pls to english

 

critical value....
dmg
crtical value...
dmg..

 

wow man that's a nice ring you got there, congrrats.

 

Yes i think its better then the new ring of Eventshop...even with this 125dmg bonus for 3 parts..

 

I think you wrong, couse we don have a clue how much damage is on weapon adorment or amulet, so that could be maybe even 200-250 damage in total.

 

Te new set is like this:
-Amulet 500 armor 500 resistence 5% walk speed
-Ring 40 dmg 7,5% speed
-Ring 400 hp 25% critical ( don't know if it is critic dmg or critic )
-Bonus 2 pieces 25 dmg
-Bonus 3 pieces 100 dmg

But i culd be rong and dev's change stats and maby they add wepon ornament in set too...
Last time the set cost 11.600 drakens
4k drakens a piece -10% first ring for hollidays..

Another posibility culd be that dev's have aleardy in mind to make another set for drakens:
-Wepon ornament
-Wepon
-Shild,quiver,book

 

If this is even close to correct, then this set is almost useless for me.

By the way people where writing(old forum) that the new ring has 45 dmg and 10% atk.speed(if I remember correct) but when I saw it at the test server was nerfed, also was 2k Draken before, same people said, but was 4k(-10%, 3,6k) at the Test Server, so I'm sure the information you give maybe it's not the correct one for the items that will come at the Live Servers, but must be something close to it. I don't know where do you find it... but who cares, thanks for informing(if it's not made up ). I thought was Ring, Amulet & Weapon Andorment, I couldn't find any English version video of the test server, to guess from the names of Set items, are you sure is 2x Rings & Amulet?

 

if ring give 25% critical value ! very gooooooooooooood))

 

the stats are too bad...ring is useless..

 

so much good items ._.

 

legend yes unqiue not

 

I agree, if second ring gives 25% critical hit value it's useless and 400 HP ain't gonna cut it any more.

 

That's a lie. Your character wont become stronger of low level items.

As far as I know NOBODY has ever found a low level legend ring, which gave more then 24+ damage in 45 & 30+ damage in 50, see a legendary level 45 ring can give more then that. Is the same with everything else, but...

Level 45 items:

Costs: 1500 crystals opening 1 item.
Easy to farm.
Gives more in stats then low level items can do in level 45.
Chance to get a perfect one - Low.
Glyphs price to upgrade: Much lower then low level items.

Low level legend items:

Costs: Really cant remember anymore, but 150-200 crystals each?
Hard to farm.
Gives lower stats then what level 45 legend items those, same in 50.
Chance to get a perfect one - low.
Glyphs price to upgrade: Pretty damn high right? Unless your been stupid enough to buy Glyphs.

30% stronger and more? Not to be rude, but that was funny. ^^

If I din't make it clear that you don't really get stronger by low level items, go ahead and waste hours in Grimmagstone for those legend items, but don't say I atleast din't try to help.

 

My ring:

 

Well here's the real truth from someone who enjoys this game and does not take every opportunity to trash it.

Somewhat True, you can find level 45 items with the same or even better enchants but how many crafts are you going to have to try and large amounts of CoTs to get these? As far as the GoP required to upgrade low levels gear... yes it is a lot lot, about 5M but melts are by far easier to farm than the tens of thousands of CoT you will need to attempt to find a level 45 item with perfect stats. The +1 damage on a level 6 ring is already perfect.

False, while the 30% better overall is an exaggeration when you compare perfect endgame gear vs. perfect low level upgrades on an endgame player there is a catch. The problem is that when R103 increased the max stats possible it also increased the chance of getting less than max stats (simple mean average math when applied to a random chance.) Since the split between max and min is less on a low level item the chance of getting closer to max is higher. (I am referring to enchants other than damage since as I mentioned that one is always max.)

Also not everyone in this game is level 45. At low/mid level these low level upgrades can give you a huge advantage (much more than 30% compared to level appropriate gear) since you can upgrade them more than five levels above you character's level for a relatively low amount of GoP. When you do get to level 45 if you want to go with endgame gear you can get all your upgrade glyphs back by melting these items.

False, Farming level 45 items is easier than farming low level items. Lets see, farming mobs that can actually kill you is easier than farming mobs that die if you give them a mean stare. An interesting premise.

False, spending money on this game is "stupid." So you never go out to dinner, a movie, the theatre or a concert? You never participate in any outdoor recreation? You never throw a party at your home? You never rent a DVD or pay for cable? These are all examples of recreation/entertainment. That is all this game is. Granted spending money on recreation/entertainment is unwise if you are doing it beyond your means. To call players "stupid" who do this only illustrates a bias towards P2P and this game.

So thank you for your post but we really don't need your "help." As you can see from the number of posts in this thread many players are quite pleased with the current upgrade system. It was a very positive step by BP to take upgrading out of the realm of anders only and provide a system that is open to everyone.

Luck be with ye,
Mikey,
Tegan

 

Well, I agree with everything expect that part above. Farming 45 level items is easier(if we are talking about time, that is needed to farm such item), because extraordinary item drops are guaranteed with some mobs.

 

That's my point of view when it comes to "Glyphs", but you missed my point with it.
Cant you see it? 40.000 Glyphs for 4k andermants, isn't that stupid?
From my point of view it is, since Glyphs is everyday farming, having the need to upgrade fast to become a little stronger, just seems stupid. Reconsider what else you could spend those andermants on. Like 100 Surprise chests or something else.

Maybe your right with everything else, but maybe not.

Btw. Who says you need to spend tens of thousands of CoT to get the perfect level 45 items? If you din't notice, but im sure you did, then this game is about PURE luck. Maybe you get the perfect legend 45 items in 1 try, which is better then any low level legend item you ever find and upgrade to 45.

With my first post I was not meant to be rude against those who farm Grimmagstone for hours. My post was meant to show those who farm Grimmagstone for hours be leaving what someone posted here with 30% stronger, was a lie. Also it was meant to show, that they should reconsider if farming those low level items even are worth it.

Also please be so kind to talk for yourself, when you say "we" don't need your help. Maybe you don't need it, but maybe somebody else does.

 

You were just throwing up your random mood. Even for you, it could be possible to write or talk and being not offensive to begin with?

The cost of glyphs of power was twice as now for andermants, and even when the cost got halved, you needed the -25% happy thing to have the nearly same andorment cost as it was before summer.

If you identified 50 more legendaries level 40 for rangers, most of time the hp on items were from 70-130+, if you had 110 000 andermants to upgrade a grimmagstone item you could get 4 x 190+ life once level 40 upgraded.

The level 45 was soon released and a lot of things changed.
With no much efforts and 0 dark set item from gnob, do you think the famous rings 240-310+ critical X 3 or x 4 could be ever found on common level 45 legendaries?
You can also have your fun for left side items @ 10 12 damage level 45 legendaries.
