Prophet’s Ring 1-Piece Set BiS PvP

Hi everyone,

As you may know, there is a leveling reward (47) in game which is prophet’s ring and it’s the only 1-piece set in the game also it’s only accessible via leveling reward system and it’s character bound, meaning you can’t level up a character, get the ring and give it to your older characters.

With all Malacath meta going around, people usually going with 5 piece on front and 5 piece (proc) on back bar or malacath 3 piece on front and back or malcath + wearing 4 piece for 3 piece set. So 2 out of 3 situations here, you are wearing an extra piece. If you had the prophet’s ring, you can get extra health bonus from it instead of wearing extra set piece for nothing.

I think this ring must be accessible to all character (even made before leveling reward system) or its one piece bonus must be removed. In pvp, it’s a big balance breaker. Someone with exact build may have more than 1k health just because he has something that you can not access.

What do you think?

    The prophet ring being at level 47 means you lose a lot of stats using it because you cant use cp160 enchants and if I'm not mistaken, your set bonus will diminish as well.

    However, next patch the trainee set will have a 1 piece set bonus so you can use a ring of the trainee to accomplish the purpose you are describing.

    I also want to point out that in the situation you are describing, it would be just as beneficial to wear 6 pieces of your backbar set so that instead of finding a 1 piece set to pair with your mythic, you get that 4th piece bonus of your backbar set on the front bar.

    Currently I’m running 5 piece set, 2 piece monster, 3 piece set (4 pieces) and a malacath. So wearing prophet’s ring, with any extra bonus, even 100hp counts, is a boost for me. You may get it cp160 if you get your reward after when you hit level 50 imo haven’t tested it yet.

    I have tested it, the prophet items dont scale.

    But next patch ring of the trainee will provide a 1 PC bonus for you if you dont want to run 4 pieces of your backbar set on the front.

    What about the enchant on the ring (which will be garbage if it's maxed at level 47). Wouldn't you be better off with a trash cp160 ring that can have a max level enchant on it?

    Also, the prophet ring is locked to level 47, regardless of what level you claim it at.

    Another option that some players are going with, @Cyrediath, is a 5-3-3-1 setup.

    Where one 3-piece could be Trainee (next patch) and another could be one of the 3-piece weapon sets (e.g. Wrath of the Imperium, Potentates, etc.).

    Just food for thought ...
