it opens up two slots for charms, so you can essentially add whatever stats you can fit into those slots, as being part of the ring, if that makes sense (since you dont need tome anymore)


Yup new meta is 4 id scrolls in belt with sling ring and no tomb. :rofl:

infinite townportals. never underestimate infinite tps...
seriously though, 10fcr is pretty epic honestly, and if you consider the extra space gained in your inventory, sling can also add 40life + other stats.
magic builds are pretty hot right now too, so ya...

2 extra slots in my inv without having to use stupid belt slots for tps


you guys blew my mind. Never considered that Sling can also give you +10 res all, +40 life, whatever you want really. Just went from a cool item to a great item in my mind!

BTW, does Town Portal have a mana cost? And if yes, is it reasonable?

Really can’t be understated, same with a lot of the bases used for warlock runewords the price for the ring has gone up

Portal barb is the main reason they're selling.
