Iron ring @implicit value - WTF?
|
im amazed to see this hasnt been adressed to this day
Iron ring base IMPLICIT value regardles of item level 1-4phys dmg? CMON guys isnt it obvious that having Act1 campaign tier Implicit on an item makes it absolutely POINTLESS to even have in game> why not make it Tiered FFS ? - at least that way, ...... finding a high tir local implicit BASE IRON RING would be a whole another level of Melee potential Last edited by easthood#7411 on Jan 27, 2026, 10:15:57 PM Last bumped on Jan 29, 2026, 12:47:17 AM

Im not against reevaluating the implicit, but this wouldn't give melee an edge over ranged attack builds whatsoever.

" saving the druid (wolf). other melee toons are slow, weak, and horrible on single target. if they do it, for example: iron ring level 81-82, with implicit 12-18, it will not change any thing. ranger will always do more damage (per second), because it is range.

ill take 12-18 implicit anyday,
paired with T1 phys prefix is actually already worth considering over resistance .....current 1-4 is just pathetic waste of an item Last edited by easthood#7411 on Jan 28, 2026, 3:27:54 AM

The genius idea from the same devs that thought level 82 bosses should drop regal shards

Absolutely agree that implicit just makes the ring worthless In trade SC, hide it from my loot filter if I could be bothered prismatic is bus

Yeah this base type is a joke after act 1.
At least in poe1 there is another base type for phys that is the later game version called steel ring with a higher implicit for this very reason... It would be literally that easy, just make a new base item called steel ring, make a new sprite bump the impicit and boom done. Same thing for the mana ring and even worse the accuracy ring, both insanely bad even for build that want mana and accuracy you will never* use these base types. |
