The Legendary Ring for Tanks seems sucks, since it is only benefit one tank for 2min!

I'll straight-up agree that it's far less powerful than the other two rings. It's even worse than that awful legendary tanking cloak was. That said, at least the offtank will feel he's doing more than just hanging out between swaps.
Soothing Mist:"Healing them for a minor amount every 0.5 sec, until you take any other action."
Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
[What's half of minor?]
"Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."

Yes because only one tank ever takes damage at a time right?

Prob just going to use a DPS ring on my tanks and be the one using the on-use for controlled explodes. Going to make hitting stuff with the explode pretty easy and maybe it will count as threat if we're lucky.

I just hope the upgrade you get from Archimonde applies to both rings at the same time. I really want to use the DPS ring on a decent amount of encounters, even as a tank. There are a couple of them where the tank ring is indeed good though.

Using the tank ring just seems odd to me. If the fights are tuned around NOT having a legendary ring, one would assume you don't need the tank ring in the first place. The tank ring is just an extra cd that in theory, we don't need. Might as well kill the boss faster with a DPS ring imo.

Yeah, I agree the tank ring kind of sucks. I mean, it's great for survival, and I'd probably use it on some progression fights, but in general the dps ring seems better. You shouldn't strictly need the tank ring to survive, and the dps ring is such a huge damage increase it stands to make a lot of fights just go way smoother.
Also, asking this question everywhere: Does anyone know if the legendary ring upgrade from Archimonde is applied to individual rings, or every rings a character owns? Seems like the potential to screw off specs is high.

Is it possible to have the entire raid with the tank ring and use the cd to split damage and healing raid wide? A dps loss for sure but its possible there would be a mechanic where that would be useful.

Well the Tank Ring gives you +25% dmg done and -12.5% dmg taken in addition to the split effect. So the only thing you don't get is your damage being added to the burst.

You get 25% Versatility which equals +25% dmg done and -12.5% dmg taken. Originally Posted by Almonds1

Supposedly the assplode is like a multi hit from each user because they claim you get explode credit on logs if you have a ring. Originally Posted by Almonds1

Its not horrible, but it just isn't as good as the DPS ring. The dps ring seems over the top, the healing ring does not work on overhealing nor shields and the tank ring is just ok, you get a 2min defensive that is pretty good on most fights considering you share the damage with the other tank and you get a dps boost.
The DPS ring is just full monged. Thats the real issue.
