Best Ring in the game

[TomisTomming]

Alright so I shall admit I've been a big fan of the Ring of the Unclean since it was added back in Swamps DLC. Since then I've been making stupid builds with the main part being that ring. Now you can imagine my excitement when they added Flop damage to the rings stats.

Now I've been playing around with it recently and believe I have created the highest single damage build in the game (This is likely to receive a nerf at some point cus 6x damage boost is a bit high tho fun).

If you run Heart of Darkness, Ring of the Unclean, Five Fingered Ring and Leto's Set with 2 guns that have weapon mod space for Song of Swords and Corrosive Aura, you will achieve 7753 damage per flop (now this damage cannot crit or hit weak spots but it also cannot be decreased by armour).

Now I do have 2 ideas for higher damaging flop builds 1 involves juggernaut band and Daredevil Charm (I haven't tested this yet as I'm still missing the band due to some bad Adventure mode rolls). The second Build is the same as the first build however instead of Heart of Darkness it uses White Rose, i believe that this build will achieve the most damage but we shall have to see (unless i get White Rose after Ring of the Unclean gets a nerf).

What weirds me is that it seems the ring went back and forth in the stats. I remember first getting it in Corsus and it having 2x unarmed melee only, then it had 2x unarmed and 2,5x flop, but then it seemed to change to 1,5x unarmed and I think flop remained the same, then it went back to 2x unarmed and the flop went past 2,5x.

Yeah they seem very indecisive about it's stats hopefully they settle on a nice balance eventually, tho I'm not gonna complain about being able to do 7k damage per flop.

Still prefer my 23k damage devastator build, but to each their own =P.

Stalker
Devouring loop
Braided thorn
Whetstone necklace (New DLC)
Hive cannon for 6x corrison (Not needed, but also nice.)
Devastator. Hit with the mod to bleed for the 50% crit damage increase from the necklace.Kill an add to add another 10% crit chance which should put you at about 55% chance and shoot some weakspots.

If all the stars align the bolts will all crit and have a chance to do 4x more damage with your crit damage being around 160% with this setup, it's a wackem combo.

The con of this build, too much damage not enough sustain.
Over damage builds can destroy a build, whilst under damage builds will give you great sustain, but not enough dps. 7K damage on enemies and bosses is too much imo, I don't think the ring is that op tbh.

IMO the best sustain build that still has a amazing 3-4K DPS on Apoc, is 2 piece slayers, 1 piece ritualistic, devestator + machine pistol, fan of knives of MP, Then you can use Razorwire Necklace for sustain and high DPS, Bloodletters Insignia which gives high sustain, then the last ring is pretty much whatever you prefer, I prefer braided thorns for enemies, Five FIngered Ring for incredible dps power, Grim Coil cause you reload often or hunters band, then I use all the 60 minute buffs possible, pop a pristine buff before a boss encounter, pop frenzy dust and preceed to slay the boss, if I need healing I can rely on the bleed to heal me while I deal high dps and the bleed acts as a DoT so even if I'm dealing with adds I can still do some dps, then if I have bleed procs on adds + boss I can effectively have double the ffect + because of razorwire necklace any dps I do to the boss while its bleeding is enhanced making my attacks do even more damage. I can hit upwards of 3-4K and even 5K on apocalypse and heal without using a single dragon heart.

I 100% get what you mean, after doing some Apoc runs myself I do find sustain is way more important than straight up high damage. Tho I would like to point out that on non world bosses with build can be used to stun lock bosses so you physically cant be hit providing you got your timings down. How ever the ring has been nerfed to 4x damage which is a fair nerf i have to admit.
