Comparison with Other Rings
When considering rings for Ranged combat, the Archers Ring (i) competes with several alternatives:
- Archers Ring: The base version provides a +3 Ranged bonus, making the upgraded version a clear choice for serious players.

- Seers’ Ring: While it provides a Ranged bonus, it is primarily designed for Magic users, making it less suitable for dedicated Ranged setups.

- Increased Damage: Each point of Ranged attack bonus contributes to overall damage, allowing for quicker kills and more efficient training.
