Why do people not like the Ring of Tenacity? (lemy.lol)

Is there some aspect of this or the math behind it that I do not understand? If it reduces the damage that you take, that is good, right? Or does it only reduce damage to me if I would otherwise get a mortal attack against me?

Okay, that's like saying "if you know how to manage food, you should never need the horn of plenty"

Stuff just happens, I like having the ring of tenacity

Horn of Plenty is still good for On Diet...

[–] Pickyfan 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah it is. Case in point, everything has it's use

[–] Vencedor 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No, not everything. For example: Ring of Elements, arguably Ring of Tenacity, Ring of Wealth while ascending, Sandals of Nature, Alchemist's toolkit, for some reason the Amulet of Yendor, blocking enchantment (it's a joke, it's trigger chance is really rare and it gives low shield for a small amount of turns. If you upgrade the weapons to make it more effective you won't need the shield, enemies just die) and all the shards (free achievement or gold)

I could make a case for all of those things, literally none of them are useless. Some other time 🤔

But you should play around more to find uses of items and everything else

Some things have synergies with other things.

Except the amulet of yendor, but that's supposed to be the last item you get
