    Or does TH ONLY affect the # of slots, and not the quality of drops? Are there any links to testing?
    How would that even work? If it raised the drop rate of dring, it would have to decrease the chance of pixie earring. Why would TH lower the drop rate of anything? TH doesn't discriminate like that. Even if it had an effect, only one of them can drop, so the increase to both would just cancel each other out.

    I'm so glad i got my dring 1/2, with 2/2 on hq pop. I so did not want to farm that thing.

    Not necessarily, if its coded like so:
    Drop roll on Defending Ring
    If drop roll is true
    Load defending ring
    if drop roll is false
    Load Pixie Earring


    disclaimer: I AM NOT STATING THE ABOVE AS FACT

    Ya that's how I imagined rare drop rate items with shared slots to be coded.. but I was probably being optimistic.

    I'm still too much of a pussy to not bring a thf though, even if it doesn't matter.

    1/4 on Ring
    4/12 on Savory

    That is pretty much it, but still happy to have it.

    not gonna lie, if I still played and got a d. ring, you better believe I'd wear it in idle/town set

    By any job in your sleep with a bunch of ilevel gear. Worst part is getting there to find a solo thf/dnc refusing to WS and 1 handing thief's knife for max TH procs, then you get to sit around for 20mins.

    Nah, I actually reverted back to wearing that stuff when I quit & broke my shell around SoA release. Done purely for nostalgic purposes. I only really logon now to talk with friends and sell stuff. My WAR was pretty optimum just before I quit.

    With all due respect, you resubbed just to rot a defending ring?
