The Ares Ring Modified is a powerful weapon in Entropia Universe. When used properly it can help you in virtually every aspect of the game. If you read out previous article over the Ares Ring, Improved then you will be even more impressed by the modified version. Let’s take a look at this rare ring and see what we can find out.
The Ares Ring Modified: Basic Stats
Looking at the Ares Ring Modified we can see that the basic stats are similar to that of the Ares Ring Improved. These stats are slightly higher. This is what qualifies this ring for the designation Modified. The modified version has a 10% faster reload speed. It also gives you a 0.8% greater chance of inflicting a Critical Hit. When you do produce a critical hit you do 10% more Critical Damage. These are some VERY impressive buffs!
Much like the over versions of the Ares this is a right hand ring. It has a max TT value of 10 PED. The minimal TT value is 0.30 PED. Like all rings the Ares Ring, Modified decays 2.000 PEC when you take it off. In game it is considered jewelry, weighs 0.1 kg and is worth 1 item point for storage or shop purposes.
This ring is only available in Strongboxes and can not be looted or crafted. In addition the item description contains the statement: “IMPORTANT NOTE: This item currently does not deteriorate while equipped, but may have deterioration implemented in future Version Updates.”.
Modified Reload
The largest advantage the Ares Ring Modified can provide is the 10% faster reload speed. We know that reload speed helps with hunting, mining, sweating and repairing. Having a full 10% faster reload can be extremely valuable and save you a ton of time. Not only can you cycle more PED. You will also be able to gain skills faster. Time is money and this ring will definitely save you time!
If you want to get a job as a healer for hire this is the kind of ring you need. Having a full 10% faster reload will give you a huge advantage. This is the kind of reload speed that is needed to heal small hunting parties. It will also allow you to heal yourself faster. That means you can return to hunting more quickly. It also means you take less damage when healing mid kill. The faster you can heal the better!
If you are mining a 10% faster reload speed can mean less time drilling. Finding big mining claims is great. But you want to extract them quickly so you can find even more claims. This ring will help you do just that. You’ll be able to excavate 10% faster which means you can get back to dropping probes!
Why The Ares Ring Modified Is A Weapon
Much like the other rings of the same family everyone looks at reload speed. This great ring has two other buffs. It increases you chances of a critical hit by 0.8%. In addition you will do 10% more critical damage. These buffs are only useful when hunting. That means that this ring was designed primarily to aid in hunting.
In my eyes if it’s primary focus is hunting that makes it a weapon. This ring modifies three critical aspects of any weapon. While it may have other uses in other categories I believe it should be labeled as a weapon. That’s it’s primary function after all. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look for opportunities to use it. Simply remember that it’s primary function will likely provide the most utility. In any other category you are not getting the full benefits the ring can provide.
How Do You Get An Ares Ring Modified
As with other rings of this family the Ares Ring Modified is only available in Strongboxes. It can not be looted or crafted. The good news is that it has been reported to drop from a variety of Strongboxes. It has been discovered in the Classified Strongboxes that you can get in the Webshop. You actually buy the key to open them and the Classified Strongboxes are included free of charge.
It has also been reported to drop from Easter Strongboxes, Summer Strongboxes, Halloween Strongboxes and Christmas Strongboxes. These event strongboxes are only available during the corresponding Mayhem event and must be looted or purchased from another player.
This ring will have a lower drop rate than the Ares Ring Improved. That means you may be better off buying it from another player or from the auction. It’s not cheap but it’s a great investment for serious players! Not only will it save you time it may help you earn PED!
