New Ring sims almost 30k lower than both my 619 rings

Yeah BM is in the same boat. Oh you want to give me half the haste?

22

The rings were buffed at the last minute, were sims updated to reflect the buffs?

23

Are the sims updated since the buffs were announced yesterday? I don’t think raidbots usually works that fast

24

Sims are updated. The problem is that two of the ‘good’ citrines (aka secondary stats) are not available. So the ring will be garbage for all dps and most others (healers are really the only ones who might be able to use it rn) until they’re actually acquireable.

Sims are updated; the problem is they decided to timegate this ring. Not just the item level, they also timegated the gems. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

They literally are but k

31

It’s 40k dps lower than a 619 for me. My 639 ring it’s 55k dps lower

32

Yeah its simming less for me too but I only have 1 of my bis gems. I don’t even know how to get the others, wowhead has next to no info.

33

30k lower but think of the passive effects that will give u an overall boost

34

You wait a week, or however many days the devs have put for the events/rares to rotate. Because the events/rares are what will drop the other citrines.

35

Well that is lame. I have multiple alts to do this on and I would rather just do fun content. I hate these stupid items. I think it is even a worse time sink than the ring in season 1 of DF.

But you can see it.

Mine looks spectacular. I feel pretty. I wonder if this is how people feel when they get an engagement ring.

Definitely. On Forbidden Reach you were just limited by how much primordial stone you could farm in Zskera vaults, and the keys to the vault were only limited by how much elemental whatever you farmed in the area. Gem acquisition was only limited by players’ own efforts, and a little RNG if you bought the stone families from the vendor.

This time, we have no control over how quickly we get all the citrines.

I think we’re supposed to cheese the gem that activates 4 other team mates gems.

except that ring was actually an upgrade, this ring is a downgrade, a 642 ring doing less than a 619 in terms of stats
