Should I simply melt the ROL and forget it?

    Just finished the ring of life quest and get an above average one, however everyone knows I need damage, and have gotten to the point where I only have to farm Mortis for my 2nd ring of death.

    It seems like a no brainer to simply melt the ROL and once I get the ROD I would be increasing my weak link a bit more. However, the ring of life would push me into the mid 8000's for hp and that seems like a good thing also.

    Another ring of death may give me 50 more dmg points which also wouldn't hurt my feelings either.

    So, is there a reason for a 2h to use the ROL?

    It can be useful in 5v5 flagrunnin and flag holding. Ring of life gives hp and some hp regen, so 1 or 2 of them could be useful whilerunning or during that period when each team has the others flag, as offense can be less valuable than defensive attributes during that period.

    I would melt it. As mentioned above, that ring would only be useful in situations where you will only be taking hits, but even then you can find better rings for that same purpose. That little HP increase won't make much of a difference compared to the 90ish damage and 9%~ critical damage a good ring of death can give you.

    There is a lot of random luck involved in the stats, and of course I still have to farm Mortis X number of times until he drops the 10 frags needed and who knows how long that might take.

    If my ROL would have been near the base stats this decision would have been so much easier to make. My main issue at the moment is that because of my lack of dmg, I rely heavily on my armor/hp and resist to survive long enough to kill the mob/monster. A boost in hp and regenerating would be helpful at the moment, but I need to remember to think long term.

    Thanks everyone.

    If you have inventory space, I would keep it. Otherwise, melt it to save space. ROL is not that useful in my opinion. I would argue that it's only use is its passive regen, which for a DK is not that important because you get 1.5% natural regen when below 33% hp anyways (pvp level 40 fame). This means a good HP legend ring can replace/exceed it. You only ever need that passive regen in pvp after exhaustion. ROL is great for other classes though.

    I would not think of melting it,I did the stupid thing of melting mine and later on regretted as there was no pvp regen. left for me.
