Ashen Verdict STR dps Ring
Written by Wildchild.

Quote from: Bornakk
The reason we haven’t added one is actually a frustrating technical issue that prevents us from having more than 4 rewards on a quest like this. We do intend to fix this though and add a strength ring in the future, we just aren’t sure this will be done for the Ashen Verdict line or if it will have to wait until the next time we use a system like this in a future patch.

    Wouldn’t it be easier to add a separate quest line off a dif Npc that way those who need the Str ring can get it in the same time frame as others?

    As a Ret pally this is dissapointing and pretty much racist to us Melee that actually use str

    Yeah that is awesome for the future, I inderstand that these things can be difficult, it is dissappointing though, and doesn’t really mean a whole lot at the moment to say we are sorry and that there is no imediate fix in in the future. Thanks for the info =)

    its always been agi on the rings because rogues and hunters are pure dps classes and use agi wars/pally/dk can tank :( but a quest chain off darion for an str ring would be great since the str has to talk to him about shadowmourne anyway

    You know what would have worked, instead of two spell power rings, just itemize the ring with haste and crit, instead of having an mp5 ring and a hit ring. I’m fairly confident that both healers and casters could live without (and would likely be pleased) those stats. That way, they could’ve given us a strength ring. Or they could’ve made the attack power on the agi ring really high (lke 180), with a smaller amount of agility.

    There could be a quest where you have to turn in one of the other rings for a str ring because if they gave 2 NPCs with quest it wouldn’t stop people from getting 2 rep rings.

    I compleatly agree with the one who talked about making a spearate quest.
    in it, you should be able to exchange the ring of cours paing, I thing that by now it will work, however some people would be as irritating as ever due to having to pay, but it would evitate people changing all the time rings from one to an other.

    Why not do a NPC for each Ring?? Makes it easyer on the players a bit and you can add the STR ring into the mix.

    Huh? I don’t get why there’s a 4 reward limit, when the old Daily Dungeon quest in Dalaran was able to have 5 rewards to pick from. Or have the Ashen Verdict guy give you a token, to hand in like the tier pieces were?

    Seriously, there’s several examples of ways to have done this right, why pick something that’s wrong?

    Another pet peeve of mine was that old daily quest would force you to pick a reputation to get an item for, with no money option if you were maxed out with all 5. Yet it was clearly possible to do so, since Icecrown’s 4 dailies let you do exactly that?

    Could make seperrate quest lines like Kara….
    Path of the X (healer)
    Path of the Y (Caster DPS)
    Path of the Z (Agi DPS)
    Path of the 1 (Str DPS)
    Path of the 2 (Tank)

    Yes when I read about this issue making the caster dps and heal ring the same one by removing hit and mp5 and add a little crit was my first thought. Just like Endblade of Winterhoof above mentions. So if we can come up with a solution instantly that does not require much changing and gets around the technical issue. Then why haven’t you? Personally I’ll get the caster dps ring on my alt priest cos I’ll use it for holy and spriest spec.

    In fear of sounding like a cry baby but it’s NOT FAIR! lol It’s like THE best ring in the game so far, right? And the str dps don’t get one? Nice. Just nice.. lol

    As a PvE Arms Warroir, I’m just sticking the ring in my bag for now….but come on, Blizzard is once again making the DPS Warriors the red headed step childs in game. The T-10 for warroirs is a joke….and will someone please tell me why just about every piece of gear has Exp on it instead of hit?

    It would be easiest to set it up the way all rep rewards are. For the t10 you still have to buy the first piece to get the rest and keep upgrading it. Have the quest give a token instead that turns in for the ring and each ring must be turned in for its upgrade.

    It’s annoying to see for us plates, but I’m sure they have plans to implement it since there are many ways around it as mentioned above.
    Personally, I think the seperate quest line (like Kara) is the better way but who knows what will happen. Will have to wait and see

    Bottom line, all other classes are surging ahead while the str users sit back and watch. Sure agilty+attack is ok for pallys but with most dps reliant on the str attribute, it’s a little frustrating. Issues like this will never be solved till Blizzard finds the thin line of nerfing pvp without reprocussion to pve. Cmon, 5 stacks of vengance to hit max dps in raid. Not to mention losing stacks when changing targets to get, I dont snobolds off someone only to return and have to restack. Give us our ring quickly pls, you owe us that much.

    In the case of a DK Strength is MUCH better because it scales with all our talent tree directly. AP does not, so is a flat 250 AP better than even 75 STR? No.

    For a Ret pally? 100 str. Divine strength + Kings = more than 250 AP out of 100 str.

    Don’t say things when you don’t understand the mechanics of the spec.

    They couldve jus created class specific quests and popped em on each of the armor vendors… Then u only have to have a maximum of 3 rings for each class..simple
