Holy burst on one obviously. What do people mainly put on a second ring? +2 CON? +2 STR? Something not so obvious?

Shocking Burst, but it depends on the content you'll be running.

I don't think I'll be wearing a second ToD ring with all of the nice rings floating around.  Holy Burst is enough for me and I mostly appreciate it for letting me break DR.

Note that +2 Exceptional stats may not be as important to you in the x-pack.  But, you will be able to undo your enchantment anyway so... do what you like.

20% healing amp is also nice.

Epic Ring of the Stalker (and the expansion rings when they hit) will likely be the second ring.

Having a shocking burst one for devil content doesn't hurt, though.

I started wearing the Epic Ring of the Stalker a while back, which replaced my shocking burst second TOD ring.

manslayer ftw. Those epic drow fold like a house of cards on a nat 20

Previously, I would slot in Omniscience if I needed that +4 ac, or exceptional fort. Not sure how my monk is gonna come out with the AC  changes.

I’m looking at the Braciers of the Sun Soul.  Superior Parrying is the same bonus to AC as Heightened Awareness and it gives save bonuses as well.

Previously awesome, now meh. With all the insight bonuses coming in the expansion, eRoc is really just a yellow slot.

IIRC there's a +5 combat mastery ring with more relevant stats than the Spare Hand.

But the screenies of this ring don't have the exceptional combat mastery listed on it:

Yeah, Str +7 and Dodge 4%. There are also permutations of it with stunning +10 and other stats, I think. Combining it and the Spare Hand would actually allow you to use pure DPS wraps and still have all your stunning goodies.

True. Luckily we've got GS deconstruction coming. My monk has a min 2 d axe, a lig 2 d axe and 2 different min 2 accessories  he'll have to change.

I have shocking burst, acid burst, and stalker rings atm.  I swap around depending on content.   Shocking burst is Oremi's so I sometimes drop shintao for Oremi's against crap like red named troll in Epic Deeps, etc.   With all the wrap swapping I do now the elemental rings are becoming a pain through.

I think those rings are a small subset of random lootgen, so you can get various tactics stuff on them. Bit like the sceptre in the madness chain.

Damn. I want that ring or almost any of the variations shown there. I also want to be able to equip another ring on my spare hand. It is a hand after all.

I had the ring of the stalker in mind too for trashbeating. I hate tons of gear swapping, but I might try for omniscience as well for one more option now that I took a better look at my gear.

Then after that grind I can bitch about the AC changes that invalidate everything and use the stalker ring.

i've got shintao and oremi set with holy burst (swap for stuff that takes fire damage)

stalker ring + spare hand.

previously they were encrusted set with shocking burst, i'll probably switch that to +2 str now that it looks like i'll be ditching the cape of the roc
