no offense but that ring is pretty crappy and imho not even an option if youre on a very low budget.
why the heck do you guys tell him to use it? LOL

reasons:
- low ar
- low life
- (almost) no mana
- FR stack isnt required and it's fairly easy to maintain 75res in hell (nor is like 10 or 15ish stacked vs facets)
- prism/CR/LR or something like rep life missing


i know that not everyone can afford really good rings, okay. but i really hate that there's no mana (general misconception seems the be that sins dont need more than 4xx mana, and the fc ring is by far the easiest way to get a good bunch without having to sacrifice anything of importance).
this combined with the fact that life, AR or other adds are not high enough to balance out this lack leads to the conclusion that i personally would never ever use this ring, unless i just started playing d2 online from scratch.
and this is not meant as a flame.

but doesnt the dex compensate somewhat for the lack of ar?

I agree with the rest, tho fire stack is nice to have when teamed upon, tho assns have less ability in general to handle 1vsmany.

I personally wouldn't use it either but it's not like he can go out and get a much better ring on the spot. It's fine as a temporary.

i'd rather use a 10fc 70+mana ring with one good add over this one, and that's barely hard to get now.
