Could you explain a little better how the Ring of Wealth now works. Does it only increase the value of drops from the Ring of wealth table or the monsters rare drop table? Does it increase the the chance of hitting the monsters rare table and the value of items you land on? I've read a lot of things about it and none is quit clear enough. I didn't like that no more dragon plate from raid rewards and having to wait a long time for it but this update is good. Drakes need a buff to be worth killing and not a blocked task

Any chance the dragon short sword stab bonus could go up? it's a level 60 stab weapon that has lower accuracy than the lvl 50 leaf bladed sword. Figured it would be higher than the 69 stab lbs has. Could be bump it's stab bonus above 70 or bump it's stab and str stats to match d scimmy, 67 stab 66 str? Drakes need a buff to be worth killing and not a blocked task

The only issue that I have with the Ring of Wealth update is that now it's overpowered. The benefits of the Ring of Wealth are now better than the Ring of the Gods, and Berzerker Ring especially for the price.

The Ring of the Gods, and the Berzerker ring would only be good for things boss like fights, and minigames like the Nightmare Zone. Maybe a new reward would allow you to combine the Ring of Wealth with the other rings. It would be nice if there was an update to keep rings like these relevant to use for general combat/slayer so that they weren't devalued.

Does this mean the wand is going to stay at 5% dmg? I was dissapointed that it wasn't at 15% like originally proposed :( , I watched last night's stream as well so I must've missed the nerf announcement if that occurred at all.


This is why we have it in the Beta worlds right now, this gives a chance for players to play with it, and give us feedback. If people think it needs a buff, I'm sure we'll give it one.


Yeah i'm surprised it was nerfed from 15% to 5%. Would prefer 15% damage, considering the only other benefit is unlimited water runes which are cheap to begin with so it barely makes a difference.

Exactly what it was polled to do:

"Should the ring of wealth improve loot received from the rare drop table by removing empty slots?"

"Should the ring of wealth cause coin drops to go straight to your inventory, rather than to the floor?"

Therefore it removes the chances of getting no drop from the rare drop table and makes sure all coins go into your inventory, assuming there's space.
