Hello, and thank you for reading another item thread by yours truly.
When I first came to this server a number of years ago, I had a great time with the Newport Ring quests. Really, the line is well done, the story is epic (I was blasting Knight of Cydonia as loud as my speakers could bear during the end of the 4th ring event) and formerly, the quest rewards were decent for their reward.
As time has passed, these rings have looked less and less appealing for the amount of time it takes to complete them. Considering it takes you to about level 55 or 60 to be able to finish this quest line, I would recommend the following changes to the rings.
Priest Ring:
Change it to 55hp/mana. Add 1 ft, change the heal mod to 5. Maybe even add +1 channeling?
[MAGIC ITEM] [LORE ITEM] [NO DROP]
Slot: FINGERS
AC: 4
Focus Effect: Blessing of the Deep
Skill Mod: Alteration +5
CHA: +6 WIS: +6 HP: +25 MANA: +55
SV FIRE: +3 SV DISEASE: +3 SV COLD: +3 SV MAGIC: +3 SV POISON: +3
Recommended level of 50.
WT: 0.1 Size: TINY
Class: CLR DRU SHM
Race: ALL
Slot 1 type 3: empty
Tank Ring:
This ring is pretty good as is. I would not mind seeing a dodge/parry/block mod on it, or maybe a little more hp though. Maybe even 1 crit strike?
[MAGIC ITEM] [LORE ITEM] [NO DROP]

STR: +6 STA: +6 HP: +55 MANA: +25

Again, this quest line is really cool, and I really would hate to see it get thrown under the bus since it's so much easier to buy better rings than these which you could farm the plat for way faster than you could do these quests.
