That would work for a distinction between like… Council and terros, but mythic+ for example is far more than all st or all aoe.

Yep, would force players to put together a ring that is just meh at ST and AoE in hopes of having best of both worlds.
Again if they would just put secondary stats on the rings it would help correct that issue to a degree.
Putting secondaries on it would make it insanely powerful and the default best option by a mile. At this point the best option is to buff its effects.
It’s already the best option and default by a mile for the specs that dont care about secondaries and hot garbage for the ones that do. Buffing the effects only increases that gap even further.
They’ve already said they’re willing to nerf / turn off the bonus effects if it ends up lasting too long into next season, so why not at this point just make it actually good for everyone.
They said THAT was their intent… Make it stupidly good and if its still preferred come season 2, then they will nerf it…
That said, another reset tonight… Wonder if that has anything to do with the ring balancing again?
The only way the ring becomes BiS is if it gets stats outside of Stamina. Then the problem shifts that the ring is BiS instead of optional.
Good news, the ring is now BiS. You may commence rejoicing.
It’s intended to be BiS for everyone.

The ring absolutely needs an even spread of secondary stats. 150 Mast, Haste, Crit and Verse on the upgraded 424 version would put the ring in a good place without having to keep balancing the stones. THEY need to just add the stats and be done with it…

I think it becomes BiS at 424, no? It entire hinges on gems which has been the large problem - similar to the computation device.
For many, compared to a 421 mythic ring. Its still a huge downgrade. Plus that is only for pure single target. Soon as adds are introduced, its dmg falls off below that of a 392 ring.
The gems are easy to upgrade, only takes a couple hours tops to obtain and max the 3 gems you need.
Sounds you’re basing this off Tuesday and not yesterday. They are everyone’s BiS after the numerous buffs they’ve put in.
No, I have been testing using the Nightly build on raidbots.
Is that the Blood and Twilight combo?
Now using the Blood/Twilight/FreezingIce combo. It simmed out better right before raid tonight. Its what everyone on the BM Hunter discord was saying is now currently best combo. At least for single target. Council fight I had to use my 392 crafted ring because it sims out 5k more then the Annulet. On my BM Hunter, its freshly leveled up just a few days ago. Which is why I dont have 415/418 rings yet on it.
2/3 lock specs should wear the ring only for Terros and 1/3 should never equip it no matter what.

Still completely worthless outside of pure ST for Shadow and I’d imagine every other haste/mastery based spec / casters.
