Adventurer Rings discussion

Is the gap in power a big difference with classes without criticals using a Cruel ring vs. a Critical ring with SE? If the difference in power is not that big, then I would just stick with a Cruel ring for solo purposes.

I don't know how you'd have SE when you're asking about solo purposes, but I'll just assume you have an SE mule. The difference is mostly DPS, and the extra 10% chance of critical massively improves that if you have SE. The difference is pretty big when you're soloing (with SE), but many would argue that for classes that don't hit very often, such as Heroes and Paladins, the consistency of the Cruel/Lilin's Ring would be preferred over the inconsistency of a 15% vs 25% chance of crit. I would counter that, since those classes spend most of their time mobbing, killing one monster ahead of schedule means you can attack the next monster in the group that much sooner. So I still sand behind my spoilers, even in various training circumstances.
