Melee Fingers - Djarns Ring vs. Velium Fire
 

So I've actually talked this through with a few people. I've seen some monks say they prefer the Velium Fire Wedding Ring to Djarns. I've seen some classes that are more likely to eat AEs, non-tanks prefer Djarns. I've also seen everything in between.

Velium Fire Wedding Ring
Slot: FINGER
AC: 6
HP: +65
WT: 0.1 Size: TINY
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

vs.

Djarns Amethyst Ring
MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM
Slot: FINGER
AGI: +9 HP: +80
WT: 0.1 Size: TINY
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

So what do you choose and why!?

Djarn's is objectively better in every way unless you're somehow also AGI capped? It gives more hp and still gives some AC. Only difference is about 7000 plat.

Djarns plus one wedding ring is the most sensible choice instead of two wedding rings, unless roleplaying as a polygamist somehow ups your immersion.

Given the price difference between the two?

I'd take Velium fire any day of the week unless I *needed* the extra agi to be over the 75 mark or were stupidly wealthy.

6ac vs 15hp and questionably worthless agility? No thanks.

I use 9th Ring + Djarns on 2 chars was wondering if I should go to Velium on one of them. Thinking maybe I will.

Kill a thousand mobs with each and let us know which parses better!

ftw!

This just seems like yet another thread on which is more valuable, AC or HP (I mean unless you have insanely low Agility and somehow get more AC from Djarns.)

But since it is, I might as well ask a stupid question. As a shaman who isn't up to speed on this stuff I know AC is generally regarded as inferior on P99, but even so is it really as bad as Caiu puts it (Copper vs. Platinum)? Should I give up my dream of someday acquiring those insanely high AC boots from Mischief?

DJaren't that amazing. 6 65s were super popular on magelo profiles from this era. I'd only wear a DJ Arnn ring only if you get it for free. 15 hp simply isn't worth thousands of plat.

I disagree. There is a massive amount of plat on this server, the plat is what isn't worth much.
