Any chance these could be changed to compete with Perfect Ruby Ring? Currently, Ruby, Amethyst and Diamond are the only ones worth the hefty cost of the upgrade with strength being heavily favored for any melee class, especially if it's halfling. Giving Perfect Sapphire Ring +1 str +1 dex or +2 dex would give other races/classes more variety and a reason to upgrade. Same for Perfect Garnet Ring, thieves already have quite a few non questie con mods so why go +2 con when you can have more damage, giving it +1 str or +1 dex with +1 con would make it more desirable.

I think the only Perfect rings you'll find ingame are Ruby, Amethyst and Diamond.

I agree with this

 

Also Perfect Emerald Ring might be worth looking at considering its just +1 Str, +1 Wis I would only see druid or paladin going for that but then why? Most would still rather have the Perfect Ruby Ring for +2 Str, with how long it takes to get 10 hellish I don't see many making using on Emerald Ring.

At least the Perfect Emerald Ring being usable by two classes is better than the Perfect Garnet Ring only really being usable by 1 class.  What other stats would you suggest since most Clerics want Chr over Wis?  Garnet is a tricky one because there's one camp who want the extra Constitution for infinite stealth, and a different stat like Dex so it has some uses for other classes or otherwise increase their hit rate.  Sapphire Ring is a hard one because +2 Dex is truly powerful, especially in PvP (which admittedly is not really a thing these days).  I'll have to dwell on it.

I didn't add Perfect Emerald Ring because I really have no idea what could be done with this as Wisdom at that level doesn't seem all that useful when most people go for damage, I guess it's okay but I don't see anyone choosing to upgrade this over the others with how high the cost is. And for Perfect Garnet Ring I've already seen someone suggest ingame +1 str +1con that I agree with, thieves only need +3 con for very little stam loss. Amulet of Sylos/Whispering Moccasins/Perfect Garnet Ring with +1str/+1con would give enough con(3) for easy movement without using Norinth's Bane(4), allowing you to equip GoV/GoM and Shadow Brace.  For Perfect Sapphire Ring I also think +1str/+1dex is best if you're unwilling to do +2 dex, I don't think anyone is willing to spend 10 Hellish Tourmaline for +1 charisma so their cleric can use it when Diamond Ring is probably just as easy to get without having to use any Hellish Tourmaline.

Agree with all of this, and I also do not know what change could be suggested for Emerald Ring that would make me want to use 10 Hellish Tourmaline on over the other rings.

100% agree. +2 dex is the perfect scenario.
