Hi guys, just curious on your opinion of which pox ring would be a better end game ring for the long haul?
Ring 1: Low average damage, double intelligence roll, 4.5% CC

Ring 2: High average damage, standard intelligence roll, 3.5% CC, somewhat helpful life after kill

The higher crit ring just barely gives me more damage than the higher avg dmg ring, but I'm wondering if I add another elemental % sometime down the road, will the higher average damage end up giving me more DPS?
Any thoughts or input would be great, thanks!
So I did a test with 2 types of weapons using a full 5 stack of gruesome feast and soul harvest and the higher average damage one (3.5% CC) ended up doing more dps fully buffed.
with these stats:
4.5 CC = +9064 dmg
3.5 CC = +9763 dmg
and with a manajuma knife instead of IAS ceremonial knife:
4.5 CC = +11111 dmg
3.5 CC = +11947 dmg
I guess at a certain amount of intelligence the returns are diminishing, thought it was pretty interesting and also wanted to say thanks konie who recommended this test or else I would have thought the higher int, higher CC ring would always have more dmg
