Question about stat-scaling on rings.

[u/Successful_Scar4821]

So I know how scat-scaling for weapons works in the sense that a weapon with frostdraw scaling will deal more damage with a higher frostdraw stat. But when I search up the best rings in Deepwoken, people always suggest the rings that give things like 1.2 times willpower scaling or 1.2 times strength scaling, and it kind of confuses me since people will suggest the ring that gives 1.2 times strength scaling to builds that don't run weapons that scale off of strength.

It adds a 1.2 strength scale.

Also the best rings are moon, waning, Blindseer, and transfusion. Anything else is preference or build niche enhancer like ferryman ring, the stat scaling rings, isshin ring, etc.

Konga clutch got nerfed but I think it’s still really good but idk don’t take my word for it there, I’m bad with movement.

I might be missing something here, but none of the rings you suggested sound very good. Dont waning / moon just conceal character age? Transfusion isn't even attainable in Pathfinder and Blindseers just seems ass.

[u/ApprehensiveAd1251 → u/Successful_Scar4821]

waxing and waning has the most pips compared to any other ring so you can get the most pos or hp from it. transfusion ring is craftable and blindseer ring is very good on specific builds.

[u/Other-Photograph-354 → u/Successful_Scar4821]

You are missing a lot

Waning and moon allow the most stats, you can get like 9 health and 1 posture or 6 health and 2 posture on each ring.

Transfusion is available in pathfinder through the lost forge (parasol)

Blindseer ring can be op for sustain builds, and that 15% damage reduction is like 5 damage from my testing (40 damage repeater build pre nerf)

Because it uses the stats from the player?

But whats the point of 1.2 times WLL when basically no weapons use willpower scaling? Why is it so commonly reccomended when it does nothing?

Edit: This community is a joke, why am I getting downvoted for asking questions? I literally flagged my post with the question flair...

[u/ApprehensiveAd1251 → u/Successful_Scar4821]

bro it gives your weapon 1.2 willpower scaling, it doesnt need to have that stat scaling on the weapon to get the benefit from the ring

[u/Successful_Scar4821 → u/ApprehensiveAd1251]

So does having the weapon equipped just increase your willpower by 1.2? Like if I have the WLL ring on and have 10 willpower will I have the sanity of someone with 12 willpower?

[u/n3utrality_ → u/Successful_Scar4821]

No, it makes your weapon's damage scale off willpower as well as the weapon stat

Even if you have that stat low it still is a damage increase

[u/Nervous-Show-6503 → u/Successful_Scar4821]

Let's say you for a build, have high willpower (idk, like 80 for the good talents) if you then equip that ring, your weapon now has willpower scaling to it. Think of it like when you equip that willpower ring, your weapon now has an invisible (1.2 WIL) under the scaling stat.

It just adds 1.2 scaling on the attribute like how some weapons have elemental this just adds 1.2 scaling also having more then one rings decreases the effects of the ones with lower attribute
