Guild Wars 2

Asking in this forum as it is an ascended ring that dropped from the fractals long ago.
I kept a “Circle of Light” ring in my bank from last year and now that I look it is one of those rings that allows you to pick the stats (because it was magic find). It also has a “Offensive Infusion Slot” which is interesting.

I want to know if anyone has one of these and equipped it and selected zerk stats. If you did you would have a zerk ring with an offensive infusion and then you could select the “Ring of Red Death” and have another with an offensive infusion. It seems this way you could actually have 2 Offensive infusions when normally 1 ring is offensive slot and the other is defensive (with Crystalline Band for example).

Does anyone have the Ring of Red Death and Circle of Light both equipped – zerker – with offensive infusions on both?

So it doesn’t change the name of the ring, just the stats.

I’m not sure if you can have 2 circles with different stats, but you can definitely have the circle and the ring of red death.

Right. I know it doesn’t change the name. I don’t want to equip it on my warrior unless (I have Crystalline Band as the second now) I know for certain that it can be zerk stats with an offensive infusion. That seems the only way you could have two zerk rings that both have an offensive infusion. Any other configuration, it seems, and you would have 1 offensive slot and 1 defensive slot.

pretty sure it stays as a different ring with an offensive slot. So yeah you should get 2 offensive slots. I believe Obal has done this, atleast I think it was him. I saw someone had it and the red ring of death in a video somewhere.

Yes you can.

Just to add something people already probably know, but for non-fractal play, it would be possible to use an infused and non-infused version of the Red Ring of Death to get 2 offensive slots. It wouldn’t allow for 5 more AR, but that’s only a problem in Fractals, and may not be a problem for a long time with the ability to put AR in armor.

Ah good point Da Sonic.
I forgot the infused and non-infused Ring of Red Death were actually considered different and get around the ‘unique’ restriction and you can equip both. I was thinking for a theoretical power maximum you would need two offensive slots (+5 power) which this would indeed provide (although lacking the agony resistance in one). I am lucky enough to already have an infused version and the non-infused don’t cost that much laurels so that would be a cheap option. I’ll just keep the Circle of Light in the bank for later or another alt.

IzZy: I know you can equip them both. If you would have took a screen shot hovering over them so I could see the stats and infusions it would have been perfect.

It’s ok now?

Perfect IzZy. That confirms it. Thank you.
